    I haven't said that you did. I also don't really feel like Adam is being unfair either. Criticism of Yelich or any player is fair game. When I say it's getting ridiculous it's more the over the top stuff that I'm talking about. Theorizing that his back is bothering him when there's no earthly reason to think that, unless something has been actually said about it from sources that would actually know. Pretending like the team is saddled with an albatross contract for the next 3 seasons. I don't believe that Yelich's contract is keeping the team from spending on a large contract if they truly felt like that contract would be good for the team. Yelich has had a good season this year, there's no way folks can legitimately deny that and be taken seriously. He's not 2018-2019 Yelich anymore, he hasn't been for years and I don't expect him to be going forward. The difference between Chourio and Yelich this postseason is roughly 3 hits. What are we even talking about?

    Oh, it's not? It doesn't get ridiculous when people start griping about 3 more years (or whatever it actually is)? The horror. A guy that's quite literally one of the 3 best hitters on the team. But you're right. it couldn't possibly get ridiculous.

    It's not a vacuum and it is unfair. Are the Dodgers struggling because Ohtani has a .599 OPS going in the playoffs so far? Nope. Because it's a team sport. They've pitched amazing, other hitters are hitting. It's been 7 games. The playoffs are a small sample and that's why there's so much pressure. But it's not like Yelich has been a complete disappearing act this whole time, which can easily happen to anybody over the course of just 7 games. It also means he could go nuclear in the next 2 to 5 games just as easily.

    The Yelich stuff is ridiculous. Whatever, scapegoat whomever you want but there were 2 total hits in game one and 3 total hits in game two. Yelich has drawn one of the four total walks over both games. It's everyone. If you want to go back to the Cubs series: he had a hit and a walk in game one, 3 hits in game two, one hit (a double) in game three, no hits and 2 walks in game four, and a goose egg in game five.

    Somehow, some way, this group needs to show up and be loose and focus on just having fun. Easier to say than do. Just play baseball. Play smart but maybe try to put the stressful feelings aside and just do the thing they've been doing all their lives. Do the little things and maybe they'll add up to something big.

    I do still have hope, really. Winning 4 of the next 5 games isn't impossible for any team, even against the Dodgers. This Brewers team is still a very good team. That said, I'm painfully aware of how difficult it will be and how unlikely it is to actually happen. I don't expect to advance beyond this series but I do still hope to. I suspect you do also.

    This is the counter-argument to the people that point to Milwaukee's success and say, "See, we don't need a salary cap, small markets can still compete." It's not that the big markets won't think like a small market, they will eventually. And then their resources will be that much more maximized for their own benefit and the small markets become even more minimalized. Just like the "moneyball" idea somewhat became the new status quo. Small markets will ALWAYS have their chances, it's just that nearly EVERYTHING has to go right for them to succeed at it. Drafting, development, coaching, chemistry, etc, etc. The big markets can hedge against needing everything to go right simply by spending. The small markets can't.

    I'm sorry I couldn't help myself. (Mods if you delete this I understand lol)

    Brewers had their shot in game 1. Snell left the game and suddenly they're all over the bases and being what we've seen all season. Brice, man I wish he'd have let himself take that HBP but instincts took over. I do think that the Brewers hitters do need to have a mindset in those situations where taking a HBP is something they need to have some awareness of. I feel like I see other batters do this and maybe it's just having that as part of the litany in your head as you prepare to receive a pitch. Be prepared. If you expect that an opportunity for a HBP can come then it's easier to control your instinct to react rather than just being surprised by it. It's hard for me to really fault them for not hitting enough against two really talented starting pitchers for 8 and 9 innings. Baseball is hard. They need to get into the bullpen. No guarantees there either but that's been the formula. Hope isn't lost but they're in a hole. Keep fighting.

    What I learned today is good things happen when you have a clean first inning.
  11. SeaBass
    Never had a doubt!!! 😬

    I-ribe, Uribe, Everybody-ribe!

    I say that all the time. Tu-Rang

    BRICE BRICE BABY

    Definitely worth saying it twice.

    I'm losing my damn mind. Literally freaking how is every pitcher on this staff a homerun giving machine?
  17. SeaBass
    I don't care who starts the game but please, for the love of all that's holy, can we please see a scoreless first inning when the Cubs bat? For once? That means no homeruns which we've been forced to watch each of the last 3 games. Man, it just feels like the Cubs do all their damage in inning 1 and after that they're meek as mice. I don't care if we run Uribe out there I want a scoreless frame.
  18. SeaBass
    I mean, Ortiz was on deck. I imagine he was hoping to get a run and not have to rely on our worst hitter having to get a hit.
  19. SeaBass
    I guess Priester put the final nail in the coffin of the Ashby opener bullpen game being a terrible move huh? Because you all knew he was the better option right? Keep your day jobs y'all.
  20. SeaBass
    Dale Sveum?
  21. SeaBass
    Shhh, the critics want to ignore that bit of logic.
  22. SeaBass
    I think I'm kinda good with Chourio just playing through it. If it goes, it goes. Situation sucks but at that point just use him until you can't. Doesn't mean that I don't think they can be careful with him if they get a decent enough lead and it's getting late. Just I'd rather not lose while he's sitting on the bench as a precaution.
  23. SeaBass
    Yes, I know the original post said "in spring training" but in my mind I'm thinking before the season, so off season, prior to the Devin Williams trade.
  24. SeaBass
    LOL or tell any of us that our success this season would be heavily tied to Quinn Priester, Andrew Vaughn and some random dude named Caleb Durbin. Honorable mention to Isaac Collins who was at least in the Brewers system going into this season..
  25. SeaBass
    Yeah, I mean it feels good now but any team winning 3 games in a row isn't exactly unheard of. I'd think most of us feel pretty confident right now but it's not over 'til it's over. Just a handful of years ago the Bucks were down 0-2 vs. the Suns in the championship series. They won the next 4.
