  1. I trust Stearns, I really do. But the Brewers pitching staff as a whole has allowed on average almost 6 runs a game and that's not including what may or may not happen the rest of this game tonight. I don't understand how he can possibly not see this as a glaring need. I understand that if any team loses a Jeffress and Knebel that it will hurt, but the reality is that there's nobody outside Hader and Claudio that I feel even somewhat comfortable putting in a game from the bullpen. From the rotation, Freddy is going to be lights out or get lit up, Burnes is about the same. I understand there will be bumps in the road with young pitchers, but the pitching staff as a whole is a real problem in my eyes right now and I can't imagine that Stearns is blind to that. I would hope not. Can't expect to win every game 9-7.
  2. I am going to get torched for this, but I think the ball and glove logo is one of the most overrated logos in sports.. I apologize in advance for holding this minority opinion. I think the M with the wheat is perfect. Leave it as is with the ball and glove sprinkled in in both navy and royal blue
  3. Murray reports that Brewers had 3 reps at Tulo workout
  4. Mets just signed Ramos so no JT for them
  5. For what it’s worth, Rosenthal was very clear on MLB Network just now that Tulo is willing to play other positions
  6. I can't get over the one year wonder hang up. I still can't even fathom Corbin getting the money and term that he got, so on the same token I am very very hesitant to trade valuable assets for Bauer. Am I crazy for this?
  7. Chirinos signing in Houston. Would seem to take yet another team out of the catcher market.
  8. Seems like maybe there's some actual smoke here... https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-hot-stove-mets-syndergaard-reportedly-drawing-interest-from-brewers-rockies/
  9. I’m very concerned something bad is going on behind the scenes
  10. I don't feel that you get Realmuto without including Peralta and even making him a headliner probably doesn't get it done
  11. Here's my rallying cry - maybe not so much a rallying cry as voicing my optimism so to convince myself that things are good but here we go: The offense can only get worse if we get nohit. I think getting home is going to help that a ton, I really do. I think it went stale the last couple of games in Los Angeles and I think this will be a rejuvenated team when they get back to Milwaukee. Specifically, I hope that guys like Cain, Yelich, Aguilar, will show their best selves in a do or die game at home. I think they will. Our best two pitchers are lined up for both games and we should have a rested bullpen that's ready to go. That's a huge plus. During that long stretch of winning to end the season, what was the one constant we heard from the players? It's that you have to take this thing one game at a time. That could not be more true for this circumstance that they find themselves in. Find a way. I don't care how, just find a way to win Game 6. Do that and you give yourself a chance while taking the pressure and placing it squarely on the Dodgers to beat our best pitcher with a 21 year old (however good Buehler may be) in a Game 7 to go to the World Series. I'll take my chances. This team is not dead yet. Not by a long shot. I really believe the Brewers are going to win this series. I really do.
  12. I think this series just ended. I have zero faith in this offense. Zero. You deserve to lose when you have that many baserunners in 13 innings and score one run. Absolutely disgusting. Cain and Yelich specifically should be ashamed of themselves.
  13. How are we feeling about tonight? I am optimistic that we'll be able to put some offense on Hill, it's just a matter of whether or not Gio can withstand the Dodgers offense
  14. Eh, whatever. He's just having fun, pumping up his team. We loved it when Aguilar said that the Cubs knew they were in trouble. Sure, but I think there is a difference between "they know they have a problem tomorrow" and "we're going to beat Milwaukee, 4 games" or saying he's "100 percent" sure they're going back to the world series
  15. The more Puig talks, the happier I am. Seeing the tweet earlier tonight from Alden Gonzalez that Puig said he's "100 percent" sure LA is going back to the World Series made me happy. Beat these guys.
  16. For me, Game 1 is about as big as it gets. The Dodgers are banking and expecting that they'll have a 1-0 series lead after Kershaw pitches. Scratch, claw, do whatever you can to score runs in Game 1 and come out with a win and it'll automatically put LA on their heels. Maybe it's simply being hopeful, but I am optimistic about Kershaw being less than dominant on the road in a hostile environment. Let's see if he proves me wrong.
  17. No one is a little concerned about the long layoff? This team has won 11 in a row. They are rolling. Just hoping they don't come out stale after an All-Star break length amount of time off. I agree with this to an extent, but I also think this team is just really good and should be fine
  18. There's a gray division champs shirt that I desperately want. It's got the roster on the back and its somewhat similar to one I have from 2011. Unfortunately, I live in Baldwin (about 45 minutes east of the Twin Cities). I have tried to contact the team store multiple times, I have left messages, and I get nothing back. Does anyone know if certain things trickle in online or if it is solely reserved for purchase at the ballpark?
  19. Over the course of my life, it seems that when I root for a given team to lose in the postseason so that my team plays that winning team, it backfires. I am willing to roll the dice this time. I wanted nothing to do with the remote chance of losing a playoff series to them. I can stomach a loss to Colorado, I can't to Chicago. Enjoy the offseason, Cubs.
  20. So obviously the Pirates winning tomorrow (today) would be MASSIVE. I hope that happens, I really do, but I am not expecting it. That leaves us 1 GB going into the weekend. Assuming the Brewers take care of business this weekend vs Detroit, what are the odds of St. Louis giving a really good showing in Chicago? I don't know. I like the pitchers going for the Cards at least and hopefully with them being in desperation mode will help.
  21. What do we all THINK is gonna happen at this point? I am genuinely curious where everyone stands. I hope I am wrong, but something just tells me the Cubs find a way to win the next 2. Let's just assume Milwaukee wins the last of the series vs STL. That puts us a game back going into the weekend. Can STL win 2/3 from Chicago? My gut says its a Cubs one game division win or a Game 163. I hope that isn't the case. I hope Pitt wins the next 2 and there minimal drama after a Friday night win against Detroit. My wife and I are making the 4 hour drive to Miller Park on Saturday, and as much as I would love to see that be the clincher, I want this thing to get wrapped up quickly.
  22. Call me crazy, but I could really see Stearns making a play for Dallas Keuchel. Stearns has that Houston connection, he's a top of the rotation arm that happens to be a lefty, and I don't think he breaks the bank like a Darvish would have though I could be wrong on that.
  23. That's where I am at too. I want to beat them in the playoffs badly, and I am willing to roll the dice on losing to them, which would be as painful as it gets. I also think that although tonight wasn't the result the team and we all wanted, this series has been a big positive. It's the first time I have really seen this team not be at all "intimidated" by Chicago. Let's dance in the playoffs.
