  1. 10-1 after Contreras walkoff… great game to be at…..electric during and a madhouse after.
  2. Or what? We are up 5 games? It would be big to go up 7, yes.....much more like must win for Chicago for division.
  3. Wild range of emotions...from streak to this! And then there is Uecker at end of week...what a season! All the storyline galore!
  4. Yes. You wait a week until Woody finally loses a game….and after Miz has a blowup against Reds. Then you go to work. I think the playoff starters are still a fluid situation. Peralta has been the best, most consistent starter all season, The other 3 have been so good for us minus a blip here or there. And Quintana could get a playoff start too, especially if we get into a seven game series.
  5. I don't think Turang or Frelick are Arby's eligible.
  6. Loaded and now #1 minor league system..
  7. Agreed. I think Murphy pitches him Game 1 too if Game 1 is next week.
  8. I would be the first last week to laugh at this. Peralta has trouble breaking the 5th inning, struggles with command, and can look lost at times. But still oh still what a season overall! Dependable. Makes big pitches to get out of trouble. Big on Ks (9th in NL), Sub 3 ERA (7th in NL), 5th WHIP, 1st Wins. Is it possible that he is arguably our third or fourth best starting pitcher this season and WINS the CY Young? I will say a shaky yes. But he has to finish the season extra well. With presumably 8 starts left, it could happen. If Brewers win division and get bye..,.. if Peralta wins 6 of 8 starts….and if his ERA drops to mid 2s, I think he can do it. A 20 win pitcher with a mid 2 ERA on a giant slaying small market team could make a pretty good case, especially if the front runners Skenes, Wheeler, Boyd, etc. fade a bit. That would be pretty wild considering one could make the argument the first 3 starts of a playoff series belong to Woodruff, Miz, and Priester.
  9. 9-1 after tonight….going a few more times yet.
  10. My previous best was 11-3 in 2007; the worst was 2023 (Division Champ) at 1-5.
  11. As we sit here on August 12 at 74-44 (40-20 at home), the Brewers winning percentage is an amazin’ 62.7% (66.6% at home). In the last 25 seasons of attending games of our Brewers (home/away/playoffs), this has been my best W/L season thus far. I started the season 7-0 and currently sit at 8-1 (88.8 %…all at home). Also surprisingly, I did not attend a July game when we were +10 games over .500 and just went to one in August (10-0). I am curious how others are doing record-wise at games this season? What is “your” winning percentage at Brewers attended games this season?
  12. You could be a PR front guy…..Brewers manipulating MLB rules? Never! And then the back door Hiura cut? Like a Ricky Vaughn change up….didnt see that comin.
  13. Still suspicious of other motives...can't help it. Hoskins normally would be back, but Vaughn is raking. Bauers maybe the same. Extend that IL stint....not sure where your ABs will be coming anyways. Good depth. Miz isn't really hurt but he needs to watch his innings anyways. Here's some attaboy mlb pay for 10 days. Just play nice. Woodruff pitched for 3 months in the minors since our staff was lights out here. That liner back was a great reason to extend longer. Henderson is injured? Ok. What is the angle? Not fair take, maybe not....but it is justifiable questioning given the history, and rightly so.
  14. Why anyone would discourage the “Bis” doing this is crazy….keep it up. Very helpful.
  15. Ticking off another hard thrower…. Hader, Burnes,
  16. B Negatively….Both being only rentals and a big hit to the farm. Positively…what a lineup. Durbin may jettison to 2B, Turang to SS…Ortiz plays everywhere.
  17. Relief pitcher and backup OF is something…I guess we see Turang at SS in August and Ortiz can backup every position. The new guy can play some 2B too, and I expect him to hit too. But yeah….I don’t get it. They need a bat or just some extra depth at SS/3B and they couldn’t get even an upgrade to bench.
  18. Exactly what I’ve been thinking….reminds me of 2022. Hoping players think management views them as strong players and not as over achievers bound for a wild card playoff on the road and not worth giving up ANYTHING of future value for the here and now.
  19. D for disappointed. We are acting like we are a fringe wild card 3 team not wanting to buy/sell much……and NOT the best team with obvious upgradable parts for cheap. What in the world?
  20. We can’t trade lottery tickets for a FA to be that would be better than Monasterio and Siegler? Or a decent prospect in a deep, rich system for a veteran utility guy? Seems odd and yes, 614 post worthy to me too.
  21. Probably Turang at SS, but 2B would be Monty and new guy. Yep.
  22. They did not continue the good feeling building from the streak, comeback wins, HR derby, and Cubs series win. They did not. They did get a lot of questions about what they were doing….fringe fans and die hards asking and shaking their heads.
  23. A bullpen arm and an extra OF…it’s something, I guess. I just can’t believe the left side of infield was not addressed. I actually now view Turang as the reason. He is seen as the backup to Ortiz in case he falters back to April/May numbers. The new guy can play a little 2B.
  24. Lockridge hit .877 and .842 at AAA the last two seasons…..and he hardly hit HRS. Got on base over 40% of the time. Another Durbin/Collins perhaps? If he could fill in on left side of infield, I would understand. Now? It looks like a move for next year.
