  1. I can't help but think of the 2014 season as we go through this current year. That year of course the Brewers led much of the year before faltering in the last months of the season. I remember looking at the Brewers schedule those last two months and seeing a bunch of games with the last place cubs. Those cubs were coming of age and gave the contending Brewers all they could handle that season. That cubs team was "a year away" from contending. Fast forward to 2017. The Brewers have given this cubs team fits this year. The Brewers may not make the playoffs this year, but the crew is the team on the rise. Stay the course, David Stearns.
  2. Unless the crew somehow wins this mess, easily the most discouraging game of the year.
  3. Michael Choice. A former first round pick of Oakland, also the A's minor league player of the year in 2013. Currently at Biloxi. Pulling for him to succeed. Another Stearns pick up off the scrap heap perhaps.
  4. The longest 4 days of the summer are over! Meaningful baseball is back!
  5. I was working for a central Wisconsin radio station and had press credentials that put me in the locker room following the AL championship series clinching game. It was madhouse! Gorman Thomas opened a jar of mustard and was dumping it on anything and everything. I got some on my jacket. Never washed that jacket again! What an unbelievable moment.
  6. I was at the game Sunday and there was nearly a fight because some people were in the wrong seats. The usher was great and calmed things down pretty quickly, but it certainly distracted me and others from what was going on in the game. I'm in the group that thinks people should sit in the seats they paid for.
  7. I felt that Villar's mental mistakes seemed to be on the decline prior to his injury, but two things he did in Tuesday's game bothered me. One was not running on the tapper in front of the plate leading to the easy double play. The other was previous to that at bat. Arica singled with Broxton on second. Broxton scored, barely, standing up. Bill or Brian on the TV coverage mentioned that Villar, the on deck hitter, was out of position and didn't give Broxton any direction as he was coming to home plate. It turned out that he was safe anyway, but that could have cost a run in a close game. I'm a Villar fan, but the mental mistakes are frustrating.
  8. Knebel should be there if the powers that be realize his value to the Brewers. While Thames might be deserving, I hope he doesn't make it. He could use the rest.
