    Bauers has been pretty good lately in case you haven't noticed.

    Well if you were going to put him on the DL this is probably the best time to do it, going against a Nats team that sold off some of their assets and then a Braves teams down Acuna. Have him healthy for the Mets series.

    Didn't realize they were eliminated from the playoffs today on July 31st despite having the best record in baseball.

    Cubs just announced Taillon has a pulled calf and is going to miss more than a month. So far their offense has kept them afloat. Let's see how well they handle another injury to a starting pitcher. Fangraphs has us with a 16.6% chance of winning the division which is far from no chance.

    The Brewers know more about pitching then I'll ever know, but color me skeptical that they have pinned down exactly how much pitches someone can throw or batters a pitcher can face before it causes damage. I'm all in favor of keeping the pitchers fresh for the post season but the argument that 1-2 batters and 10 pitches is ok but 3-5 baters and 25-30 pitches is a problem seems to rely on a level of injury prevention precision that no one in baseball has. If the brewers are so precise in just exactly how much work is too much than why have we gone through (checks figures) 174 pitchers this season mainly due to injuries?

    The cubs still have 9 games against the Yanks, Dodgers and Phillies so its not like every game is against the white sox. Even if the Cubs go 20-10 the Brewers only have to go 11-19 to win the division. It's over.

    If you are a fan of video games or arcade games I would recommend you go to galloping ghost arcade. You can easily kill 6-7 hours there without a problem. There's also a decent brewery a a couple of blocks away for when the carpal tunnel sets in. Not near wrigleyville but a better option IMO. https://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/

    We have a 12 game lead with 38 to play if you count the tiebreaker. If we drop the next two we'd have a 10 game lead with 36 to play. Cards then go play 3 in Minnesota, 4 at home against SD, three in NY against the Yanks and then face us in Milwaukee. They do all of that without any days off. You think they are going play .500 ball against that schedule? The cards are dead.

    We were in the Molitor lot. Maybe they decided to do a trial run on just one lot.

    Sal saw 4 pitches that weren't anywhere close to the strikezone and he swung at 2 of them. He doesn't have anywhere near enough power to not be a heck of a lot more selective than that.
  14. AdvantageSchneider
    Would Milner just come off the IL and take the pitching spot? I do assume Hall will be up sometime in the next 20 days.
  15. AdvantageSchneider
    He's available if we need some innings to be ate during the stretch run.

    Didn't see any stories about this, but the new parking system was in place on Saturday. I hadn't heard any announcement that they were trying this again. It was a little confusing getting into the parking lot. They seemed to be parking the cars differently than they normally did. Instead of parking right behind each other they seemed to be go trying to park you in the next stall over before filling in the back stall. That might have been what was creating the confusion. Other than that it seemed to work fine. I wonder if that was the reason they had the brewers out in the parking lots throwing freebies to the fans. Just in case the system blew up again.

    That survey reeked of we got too much money from the government and we have no idea what to do with it. The price points on all the premium seating services were ridiculous. $300 or $400 a ticket!? The best seats right now are what $125 a ticket without any discount. Who in their right minds is paying $300 for one ticket to a regular season game. Every game they are advertising suite rentals so they seem to be having problems selling tickets to premium areas for a first place baseball team. Whoever did that survey does not seem to understand the Milwaukee market at all.

    The Brewers current odds to win the WS are between +2200 and +3000 depending on where you look. Last year at about the same time the Rangers were +1300 while the Dbacks were +2800. That seems like a realistic chance of winning the WS to me. If you are hoping the Brewers will someday be the prohibitive favorites to win the WS I think you should pick another team or another sport to root for.

    That seems to be a perfect description of Myers and Gasser. How many of those guys do you think the Brewers or any major league team has?
  20. AdvantageSchneider
    I watched the video and I didn't see much of a funky delivery.
  21. AdvantageSchneider
    Because Weimer was on deck.
  22. AdvantageSchneider
    Two things. 1) This isn't some hour long long TV show where 5 characters investigate and prosecute an entire case. Undoubtedly tens if not hundreds of people were involved in this case. It is ridiculous to think that all of them would keep evidence regarding Ohtani's gambling a secret. 2) The annual US gross domestic product is $25.44 trillion. Do you really think anyone in the federal government gives a darn about some baseball player making $68M a year? The tax on that salary isn't even a rounding error in the federal government's budget. The conspiracy theory that the federal government is covering up Ohtani's gambling gives the flat earth conspiracy a run for stupidest conspiracy theory I've ever heard.
  23. AdvantageSchneider
    I'm a CPA so professionally I have an elevated interested in these kinds of stories. Based on all the stories I've read over many years I would believe that all of this was done without Ohtani knowing. I can give you a fairly recent example, Dane Cook had $12M embezzled from him by his brother and sister in law. https://www.cnn.com/2010/SHOWBIZ/celebrity.news.gossip/12/06/dane.cook.restitution/index.html I can tell you in my own relationship with my wife, I handle the finances. If I wanted to "embezzle" from the family funds I most certainly could do so and she would never know about it. How many marriages do you think are like that? Lots of people trust their friends and family with their money, but they really shouldn't. Trust but verify.

    I have no desire to sit through another season of watching Jessie Winker/Jake Bauers "hit". Tommie Pham is out there so is Brandon Belt. Both would be better than Jake Bauers and I would think they wouldn't be that expensive.
  25. AdvantageSchneider
    Good defense is appreciated at any position but you gotta hit at first base. Every player has some hard hit outs. There was only one pitch in the 4 pitch walk that was anywhere close to the zone. I think even Javy Baez walks in that at bat. He's got a career .661 OPS in 1,229 at bats. That just isn't going to cut it at first base if you hope to win the NL central. Unlesss he catches fire I assume he's going to be replaced by someone sooner that later. I hope he hits but there really isn't any evidence to support that he will.
