  1. I agree with your other point about the lack of left handed options at the moment, but his usage is pretty independent of what side of the plate the hitters are on.
  2. Murph is elite at motivating and creating a strong culture. No arguing that. But I think that aspect clouds his judgment too much. The leash is always too long when relievers are struggling. Ashby has been bad for a month now but he stands by his guys. Batting Yeli's corpse leadoff is indefensible. But he loves Yeli. He'll ignore numbers for gut feel in those instances, but then pinch hit Bauers in the ninth because of the numbers. It's so frustrating.
  3. Should be second and third with no outs if Contreras could unhitch the wagon
  4. I need an ump to explain how that move to second wasn't a balk
  5. Pratt was a FC. Bauers thrown out trying to go back to third on the safety squeeze
  6. Blew through the whole bench for that. Overmanaging like crazy.
  7. I've had enough of this pitching staff yakking up walks and hits after being ahead in a two strike count.
  8. Would have loved to have seen him get through 6, but you'll take that outing from your #5 (6?) starter every time.
  9. Tired bullpen and no clutch hitting. Yep that's October baseball in Milwaukee.
  10. This will stay with them. And that's good. It should. LA played exceptional baseball. The Brewers played some of their worst. It'll feel like the gap is massive, but the Crew isn't that far away. But it's gonna take some ruthlessness from the F.O. and some spending from the ownership to get them over the hump.
  11. The payroll advantage doesn't buy wins but it sure gives you a lot more margin for error. It's gonna take 4 damn near perfect baseball games. Always was. Just hope the 9th helps them find a bit of their identity again at the dish.
  12. I was born after 82 so my worst loss list would be as follows: 2018 Game 7 and Saturday's inevitable loss. Game 3 last year given how it went and Ueck's health 2018 NLCS Game 5. Honorable mention: Kotsay in Center
  13. When you have a Game 7 loss in a World Series in your franchise history, nothing is gonna be worse than that. I think this would be on par with the 2018 loss.
  14. That's the biggest misstep among several from Murphy since game 1 ended. I thought he got over his tendency to overmanage. But even though they won I didn't like the pen game in Game 2. You have the advantage. Line up your starters, pivot to the pen if it goes badly. Tinkering too much, unnecessarily using guys outside of the roles they've succeeded in, that's how you lose momentum. And probably get reverse swept.
  15. Yep. Lotta playoff scar tissue. I am expecting the reverse sweep because it would be a new way to crush my spirit in October.
  16. Wouldn't have bunted unless there was a pinch runner on second. Chourio can't really run.
  17. I forgot how torturous this is. Got spoiled by the first two game.
  18. And that it was the same hammy he injured this summer. Every. *******. Year.
