  1. Pyrrhic" is an adjective meaning achieved at too great a cost, or so costly it negates the benefits, most often used in the phrase "Pyrrhic victory" to describe a triumph that ultimately brings ruin to the victor. The term originates from King Pyrrhus of Epirus, whose victories against the Romans at the Battles of Heraclea and Asculumwere devastating, costing him so many troops that he famously said another such victory would "utterly undo him".
  2. Remember our 0-4 start with a -32 run differential?
  3. If Contreras goes on the IL … Does Milwaukee promote Haase or Quero to finish the season?
  4. I’m unashamedly a HUGE fan of SpongeBob & Patrick 💪🙌👏🎉
  5. Fickell & McIntosh should be done after the season
  6. I assume Zimmerman will follow Patrick today & Fedde will follow Gasser tomorrow Surely hope we win both games I have a bitter taste in my mouth after last night I’m hoping we get no more starts from Misiorowski That experiment is not going well recently
  7. The Luke Fickell experiment needs to end soon. I love the Badgers, but this is a terrible team. It’s time to punt on Fickell & his incompetent staff. His hire has set us back a decade. It may be wise to dump McIntosh as well.
  8. What a waste of a game. I anticipated a loss tonight when I saw Misiorowski as the starter. He somehow only game up two runs, but he once again didn’t get many outs & that led to a beat down & an unnecessary loss to a mediocre team. That’s it for me. I will check the score later, but this one is decided. Gunsmoke time for me.
  9. The last time the Brewers made the World Series - 1982 - I was 21. It never crossed my mind that it would be over 40 years before they returned. I’m 64 & this is our best chance since 2018 to make the World Series. I will be furious if Miz is on the NLDS roster & even more so if he pitches in a game & gets hammered. He’s got many years to pitch in big games, but I hope he’s not included as a courtesy like he was for the All-Star game. I don’t trust him in games that matter.
  10. I believe Misiorowski has had one good outing since the All-Star game. It would make sense - or be okay - if we already had won the NL Central & secured the 1 Seed for the playoffs. It feels arrogant by Brewers management to send Miz out there when he clearly doesn’t have it this month.
  11. If Frelick can add another 25 lbs of muscle this offseason, he may become Brady Anderson & hit 50 bombs next season 😉
  12. Yuck … Miz is not currently an “out getter” I’d rather see a seasoned vet like Fede geat some innings for us in the next 10 days weeks as we close the season Miz will be a great part of the future pitching staff, but he’s not helping us win more games this season How can I (we) as fans see this so clearly & Brewers management not see this at all?
  13. I’m not as excited about Misiorowski as many others. I hope he will be a better pitcher next year. I was more excited about Burnes when he was coming up in the minors. I remember his one awful season before he turned things around & won a Cy Young. Obviously, Miz is young & inexperienced. I’m confident he will mature & succeed - hopefully in 2026. He’s certainly shown flashes of extreme talent. That said, I’m not sure if he will help us in the 2025 playoffs.
