  1. Cubs take a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the 3rd. Certainly not going to hold up, but at least they aren't laying down. Edit: Lasted about 3 minutes. Roid boy O'Neill got all his andro into another one.
  2. Here's an attempt at a translation:… Edited for space What an interesting translation. I see our understanding of the words “joe” and “works” differ. Where I see geopolitics, you see baseball. Given the forum this strange work was found in, I will concede to your judgment. I hope we meet again soon. Best, LP That's the difficult thing about translating a tablet written in an ancient, long dormant tongue. So much of the translation is, quite frankly, educated guesstimation. Who knows ... perhaps we are both right, and Shoeless Joe faked his own death years ago, and is now a key player in the AUKUS negotiations, despite his advanced age of 134? One never knows ..
  3. Yeah, we won that trade. I have waited a long while before evaluating this one. I always liked the makeup of Urias, while acknowledging that he very well may not work out. He's working out just fine atm. Urias's 2021 OPS currently sits 45 points higher than Grisham's. He also has 6 more HRs and 12 more RBIs in about 40 more ABs.
  4. Here's an attempt at a translation: Famous White Sox outfielder "Shoeless" Joe Jackson is remembered for his association with the Black Sox Scandal, in which members of the 1919 Chicago White Sox participated in a conspiracy to fix the World Series. As a result of Jackson's association with the scandal, Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Major League Baseball's first commissioner, banned Jackson from playing after the 1920 season despite his exceptional play in the 1919 World Series, in which he led both teams in several statistical categories and set a World Series record with 12 base hits. In much the same light, the Milwaukee Brewers starting rotation has become embroiled in a conspiracy to scare a portion of the team's fanbase into thinking a division race that is all but over is somehow still in doubt. However, the starters (other than "inside man" Brett Anderson) have continued to perform admirably during the team's unfortunate slide, while the offense has gone dormant, which has caused some to fiercely debate the rotation's palpability in the scandal, with new accounts claiming their innocence and urging the scared portion of the fanbase to reconsider their views. As a result of the scandal, the rotation has been ensured a place in baseball lore.
  5. For some reason I always liked Tyler Houston. Apparently he was kind of a jerk, but dude was a gamer.
  6. This one seems pretty appropriate after the long wait at 3
  7. Oh, I'm with you. Just heard a lot of snark about that banner over the years. 4 big-time outs from Suter. Hero work from the lefties tonight. Wouldn't surprise me if Suter game out for the 9th, either. Total bullpen saver.
  8. I can't imagine Escobar is looking at an enormous deal this offseason, and he is seemingly a really nice fit as a guy who can play all over. I'd definitely make a big effort to bring him back.
  9. Eric Lauer is only 26 years old, and isn't even eligible for arbitration until this winter. The Brewers own his rights through the 2025 season. After some sketchy early reviews, the Grisham/Davies for Urias/Lauer deal is looking like a masterstroke.
  10. In his defense, yesterday turned into an epic trainwreck the likes of which we haven't seen out of this team all season. Just a perfect storm of terribleness. Even the most pessimistic of fans couldn't have predicted that.
  11. Counsell playing 4D Chess while everyone else is playing Checkers.
  12. Why didn’t he send houser out last night I was wondering the same thing. Might have tried to get too cute yesterday, and it burned them.
  13. As tempting as it might be to send him out for the 7th....at 100 pitches it's probably time to make the switch. I'm trying to figure out who they are going to make the switch to, though. Have to think Boxberger, Ashby and Cousins are off limits.
  14. Cubs load the bases with no outs ... score one run. Devil magic. 9-4 Cards going into the top of the 6th. Cubs are at least putting a little offense together.
  15. Another quick 10 pitch inning. Lauer is settling down, which is good, because the pen is pretty drained right now.
  16. If he doesn't i blame you and this post. Ha. I wish I had that much power. I can barely make my dog stay.
  17. Much better 10 pitch inning for Lauer there. Maybe he can stick around in this one awhile after all.
