  1. Seriously? I thought it was "Dial initially, proceed litigiously."
  2. Sounds like Counsell is instilling the urgency to win every game by saying it will come down to the last week. Even with a sweep of the Cubs next week, the Brewers really can't close the race sooner. It's baseball, they will win some and lose some, no matter what Counsell says in a press conference. What if the Brewers go 21-8 up until the last week of the season? I think we would all consider that outstanding. If the Cubs go 20-10, the race comes down to the last week, even with what I would perceive to be a tremendous sense of urgency and superior play on the Brewers part. I don't think it's realistic to expect a 7-game lead on Sept 25 with six games to play. I would be ecstatic with a four-game lead with 3 to play!
  3. Would any of the outfield candidates listed be worth a look at first base?
  4. This is interesting. The same loss to the Cardinals, mentioned above, that dropped the Brewers to 329 under, also represents the low point in Attanasio's ownership. I guess it makes sense. The Brewers dropped to 945-969. Their current record through today of 1443-1372 since Attanasio took over is the high water mark in his ownership.
  5. Devin gets a Twin hitter out! Progress!
  6. Ah, the 4-pitch leadoff walk. My blood pressure is up
  7. Yes, but if the Brewers go 0-36, the Cardinals only need to go 15-20.
  8. Plus, for any Brewer fan to say another team has an easy schedule, when Milwaukee is what, 3-9? against Oakland, Colorado and Kansas City, just makes me laugh. A win over the A's is equal to a win over the Braves in the standings. Not sure if a loss to Oakland feels worse than a win over the Braves feels good. Since March 30, the Brewers have won 3.5 more games than the Cubs. That seems important.
  9. David Gruber is the only lawyer I’ll ever need. As he always says, “call once, that’s it!”
  10. My wife is not a baseball fan. I was watching the Braves the other day and I told her how jealous I was of all the hitters in their lineup and what a good team they have. She said, “so be a Braves fan, then.” I had no words. I’m sure she was trying to be nice.
  11. I love watching Brice Turang play defense. So glad he’s been allowed to battle through his hitting issues.
  12. Canha has a chance to win me over
  13. 19 Brewers have come to the plate. 12 have started 0-2.
  14. Tigers looking good. 8-6, three outs to go!
  15. I'm still not over the 1981 Garden State Bowl. I still remember Willie Gault taking a kickoff to the house.
  16. The Brewers are 11 games over .500. That has been their high-water mark for the season. That makes the franchise 223 games under .500 all-time. If they win tonight, it will put the team at 222 games under .500 for the first time since June 20, 2002. The last time they were at: 200 games under .500-September 29, 2001. 90 wins this year and next would get them back there. 150-July 30, 1999 100-Sep 18, 1993 50-Sep 6, 1971 0-The team was 3-3 after six games in their first season. That is the last time the franchise has had a record that wasn't below .500. They lost their first three games, so the Brewers have never had an overall winning record. When Manny Pina struck out with the bases loaded on August 30, 2016 against the Cards, the Brewers dropped to 3561-3890, 329 games under. That was the most games under .500. Since then, they have gone 566-460. I am old enough to remember the first Brewer game against the Angels, and I want to live long enough to see this franchise get above .500. Disclaimer: I am not a data scientist. This is just eyeballing records and using Excel to keep a running W/L total.
  17. And I’m fine with that. I miss the score bug more.
  18. Brewers? I’m generally a fan of any team that plays the Astros.
  19. Rangers only seem mildly interested in this game today
  20. Holding Semien to 1-12 in the series makes it hard for Seager to do a lot of damage.
  21. Just broaden your definition of impending to include a larger window. Like, the rest of the season.
