  1. All 3. In my opinion, this giants team is the weakest opponent we have. If we are going to get a sweep down the stretch, it's this series. The matchup on Sunday against Bumgarner is obviously tough, let's take it game by game though. That Detroit lineup is pretty awful.
  2. This isn't the NFL. If the Cubs and Brewers tie for the division there's a one game playoff for the division with the loser still qualifying for wild card in all likelihood. Cubs get home field for that because they will have won the season series. As for trailing in the loss column, all that signifies is Cubs have more games to play. The Cubs would have had to falter anyway for the Brewers to catch up, and if they go into a bit of a tailspin, the more games they have to play, the better. What signifies the difference in games played is the "games back" column which currently sits at 4 despite being five back in the loss column. That shows the snapshot of what the situation is today, not what will ultimately need to happen. I misspoke on the tie breaker and should have clarified home field but either way, the bottom line is the that the Cubs need to lose six more times than us in order for the Brewers to win the division. Slice it however you like, that is what needs to happen. Having those games left could also mean having more games to recover from a tailspin. The Cubs control the division, the Brewers do not control their destiny in terms of the division.
  3. In terms of winning the division, the situation hasn't really changed for several weeks. They have been winning games/series at a pretty good clip but all that winning still has them five back in the loss column, just as they were several weeks ago. Even if we sweep them and end up tied at the end, The Cubs would have the tie breaker. They have to lose six more times than we do in order for us to win the division. Teams can win more games than they already have, they cannot lose fewer games than they already have. In my opinion, they are going to need to go on a six or seven game winning streak in order to catch the Cubs. I don't see it any other way. The WC is a different story in that Philly and Atlanta have tailed off while the West Coast teams keep beating each other up. I like their positioning for a WC spot, just not the division. And I'd be ecstatic with a WC spot.
  4. That kind of speed really gets in a defenses head.
  5. Top of our order against a very good pen. This is where the difference between contenders and pretenders comes through.
  6. Interesting call on Hader right now. The use him more often crowd versus win the game today crowed.
  7. I don't usually have a lot to say about pitching changes but I'm not sure I don't just let Davies bunt here.
