    Minor pushback on the "2nd weakest division". The NLC is one of three MLB divisions with a winning record overall. The National League is 30 games over .500 against the AL, which I think has to be taken into account. Some of those AL records are being bolstered by some of the god-awful teams over there. And before you bring up the Oakland series, I saw it. But there has to be some weight given to the body of work over a season by teams, divisions, and leagues. The two East divisions pass the record test and the eye test, but after that? The NL West has the Dodgers and...? So, while I am not saying that the NLC is a gauntlet, I think that perceptions at the beginning of the year that it was a weak division are still coloring the view of it now. And the Cubs sure are giving me echoes of the 19 Nats and 21 Braves right now. If you want to ban me for that kind of devil talk, I will completely understand.

    Pederson loses a ball in the wind, Gomes with an infield single, Giants 3B throws the ball away on a contact play, and the Cubs score six, but sure, the Brewers are lucky.

    And if Hiura was up and was getting the equivalent playing time that Andrews was, you wouldn’t be happy with that, either.

    Our old buddy Joc P comes through! 4-4

    Peguero v Peguero

    Andrews has faced fourteen batters. He got five out, and 8 scored.
  7. Underachiever
    Just garbage. Good god. Center cut
  8. Underachiever
    With Clayton Andrews pitching, maybe Contreras will get another shot at extending that hit streak.

    Please don’t walk the leadoff batter.
  10. Underachiever
    That’s a very measured response. I guess that’s why I never see a sage posting in the game threads.
  11. Underachiever
    Couldn’t agree more. I would think that since he’s NOT a heralded prospect the fans would appreciate him more. I sure am happy he’s here.

    An MLB article on how the trade deadline affected 10 teams did not mention the Brewers (while mentioning STL and citing the Yankees for doing nothing), which was weird. I did notice this blurb on the Mariners: General manager Jerry Dipoto was uncharacteristically quiet during trade season, sending Trevor Gott and Chris Flexen to the Mets and Paul Sewald to the D-backs. Trading your closer away isn’t typically a vote of confidence for the rest of the team, but Seattle -- which was 55-51, five games out in the AL West and 3 1/2 back in the Wild Card race -- has been one of the hottest teams in baseball during the past month. The Mariners’ 21-6 record in August thrust them into the AL West and Wild Card races, as the offense has come alive and Andrés Muñoz has excelled since taking over the closer role. Surprised Seattle's season wasn't ruined after the trade of their closer.

    And while my post quoted you, it wasn’t really directed at you.

    And I am of the opinion that the constant drumbeat of negativity in this thread and others when things are not going well is more annoying than wiguy’s tone. The Brewers are 11-3 in their last 14. In those games they have scored 84 runs, that’s 6 a game. And someone posts that 13 runs is a week’s worth of runs, as an example. To paraphrase you, We are all Brewer fans here! No need to be a mope!
  15. Underachiever
    They scored 5.
  16. Underachiever
    The thing is, it’s not an opinion. It’s a fact. Unlike the majority of the posts in a game thread.
  17. Underachiever
    Is that for real? Are you that down on Frelick?
  18. Underachiever
    I’ve come to expect the Brewers players to make the catch every time. I’m sure Frelick is pissed he didn’t get that one.
  19. Underachiever
    I still hope…
  20. Underachiever
    I mean, there’s luck, and there’s “game-winning hit off of the pitcher’s foot” luck. There is also no luck involved in your bullpen imploding the last two nights.
  21. Underachiever
    That’s a shame.
  22. Underachiever
    Rickie!
  23. Underachiever
    How would that be different than any other day here? So many here incapable of being positive., even when the Brewers win 11 of 13.
  24. Underachiever
    Magic number Rickie Weeks!
  25. Underachiever
    Fastball ends it!
