Sad funny
-
I dozed off. Should have stayed asleep.
-
Perdomo.... sounds like a Latin-ish profanity.
-
But wait; there was more!
-
Woweeeee!
-
Can't start this big winning streak unless we win 2 in a row!
-
<exhale>
-
Exactly.
-
It almost seems like we go through the bullpen until we find the guy who's going to blow it.
-
I approve of home runs with runners aboard. ??
-
It's just not THE most important factor. This is trite because it's true: "Hit 'em where they ain't." And the speed of the sac fly is irrelevant.
-
And by "exit" you mean getting "out" rather than getting "exiting the park."
-
Yay. Solo home run when down by 5.
-
Can we add up the distance of our warning track outs to get a run or 2? Sick of hearing about how hard we hit the ball... into outs.
-
We can't score 5 runs in a week.?
-
I'm walking my daughter's dog. Watching the dog poop is more rewarding than listening to the Brewers bat. Both are $---ty.
-
I had company and couldn't listen much or join the fun. From what I did hear, I was ready for another bummer loss. But a couple of timely HR's can make a person feel a lot better! I get the idea that CC is seems too cool, blase, uninspired, whatever. I also get the idea that in a long season you've got to control the temperature and not burn out. But I really would like to see a few sparks or signs of enthusiasm from the guy once in awhile.

I'm listening to a small-ball fest between the Phils and Giants. Can't help but wonder AGAIN how different our season would have been if we had played for RUNS instead of really hard-hit outs and solo HRs.
-
Are we there yet? (test)
-
Prediction: Burnes will pitch a gem for 6 innings, but Bumgarner will allow no hits for 7. Final: D-backs 2, Brewer 0. I hope I'm as wrong about this as I am about most predictions
-
FWIW, I was busy with internet service issues all afternoon and until 10PM. As bad as that was -and it was bad- it was probably not as bad as listening to the game. At least we didn't waste a pitching gem!
-
Close enough! heh. I wish you could save 2 or 3 runs for a later game.
-
I tend to agree generally and in the long term of a season. But at some point (like maybe September 1?), you need all hands on deck now, to win today. Guys have to find a will and a way to pitch or play. What good is it to have a well-rested bullpen when you have no more games to play? This is the time you saved players for all year.

Apologies for the self-indulgent repetition of this little manifesto from the end of yesterday's game thread: Safe to say I am the newest of newbie Brewer fans around here. After many years of inexplicable loyalty to the Montreal Expos, I wandered in the wilderness after they moved to DC. I became a 3/4-hearted Dodger fan due to an earlier childhood affection dating back to Koufax & Drysadale & then the LaSorda teams. But I couldn't love them. I finally decided, very deliberately, to be a Brewers fan after the 2018 NLCS against the Dodgers. They showed so much fight, and a friend from Wisconsin is a die-hard fan. Plus, they had become a National League team, which meant something at the time. AND their mascot makes beer! Yes!! Yet I understand the disappointment of long-time fans (ever heard of the New Orleans Aints?). Yes, this team's relentless mediocrity, especially with the bat, is disheartening. But I figure you just try to enjoy the wins and forget the losses (after a suitable period of lamentation and venting.) It's still baseball you can care about, and it's a long time without baseball between the World Series and Opening Day. Enjoy is for what it is..
