    0 for 4 with RISP already. Just another day at the office for the Brewer offense.

    When they moved Logan to the 60 I assumed he was done for the season. I even thought they reported it that way. I am not sure if they just really needed the spot on the 40 or what the deal is. Either way, they can probably just DFA Zimmerman if they need the spot again for Logan. Or put Woodruff on the 60 if he has to be shut down, which hopefully won’t happen.

    There have definitely been more painful ones. At least this was only a regular season game that could ultimately be meaningless. I guess I mean worst as the most inexplicable loss ever as to how we managed to lose that game that we had no business losing against a team that was not going to generate 13 points in 4 minutes on their own without some serious help.

    Oh, I don’t think they’d mind. I think especially with the Uek passing, a Brewer World Series is a good story and interesting to most of the country. Anyway, while it’s true that ESPN clearly caters to the East and West coast markets, I don’t buy much into conspiracy theories when it comes to baseball. Unlike football or basketball where a lot of subjectivity is involved, baseball is pretty black and white. Not a lot of opportunity for outside influences to change the game, except when it comes to the strike zone. And there’s so much data tracking on that these days that it’d be pretty obvious if one team was continuously getting the shaft.

    Quite the stinker. At least we won’t need anyone to pitch the 9th.

    I’m really glad it was all much ado over nothing. It does happen, though. Just this season, Tiger fans and Met fans have seen it happen to their teams in real time.
  7. adambr2
    That AB sucked. The last one I thought was a step in the right direction so I was disappointed to see him follow it up with this. You’re right, he has to get it going.
  8. adambr2
    Not Brewer related, but the Tigers have blown EIGHT games in the division in their last TEN overall. The Guardians officially took over the lead tonight. I wonder how many of their fans assured one another that the division was over 2 weeks ago.

    I think both the Brewers and Phillies are probably just trying to get through 162 and let the chips fall where they may. Not that it was ever that important to me, but the loss tonight will take the 100 win season off the table.
  10. adambr2
    Magic number down to 2! I know it doesn’t feel like it, but this was equally as helpful as a Brewer win tonight. Nice unexpected surprise in a game that they looked destined to lose. Takes some sting off this stinker in San Diego.
  11. adambr2
    So basically 2 weeks before September. Again, would you rather be hot, of course, but I don’t think the last 6 weeks is a bigger correlation of playoff performance than the overall body of work.
  12. adambr2
    Marlins sticking with Josh Simpson in the 11th who is arguably the worst pitcher in baseball. Should be fun.
  13. adambr2
    Yep, Marlins couldn’t hold it in the 10th. Onto the 11th. I may as well pay attention to that one, it’s a hell of a lot more interesting than this one.
  14. adambr2
    Not sure what the Phillies want, but I think the Brewers are mainly concerned with health and fatigue going into the postseason over anything else, now that they’ve clinched the bye. As they should. I think they’d prefer the 1 over the 2, as they also should.
  15. adambr2
    Miami rallied from 3-0 down to take a 5-3 lead over Philly in the 10th. That’s where they are now. Their games matter as much as this one, because only Brewer wins or Philly losses can reduce the magic number to the 1 seed.
  16. adambr2
    Yeah, if they lose tonight, which they probably will, they will be 10-10 in September. Not great, obviously. But not like choking bad. Fortunately, they gave themselves enough of a cushion in July/August to afford a mediocre September.
  17. adambr2
    Eh. Last seasons’ Dodgers went 16-12 in September. Nothing special. Rangers were about .500 in 2023 in September. Obviously the Brewers didn’t play well enough in 2021 in September, but I don’t know if that has anything to do with now. They need the remaining pieces of their rotation to stay healthy. They need a few guys on offense to get hot and start swinging the bat better. They really need an effective bullpen. I think those are the things that will matter, not so much what they did this month.

    “Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln…”
  19. adambr2
    He is striking out a LOT this year. But he’s also slugging much higher than ever before, so maybe that’s the trade off. edit: sorry, should have figured out from context that you were referring to his fielding here.
  20. adambr2
    At this point I am at peace with whatever happens the rest of the regular season. If we lose every game from here on out, we will probably be the #2, but not worse than that, we will still win the division and not be playing any wild card games. We will get a week off and get a 5 game NLDS series with HFA to rest up and hopefully get hot and as healthy as we can try to get. That’s all we can really ask for right now.
  21. adambr2
    It would be just like the sports Gods to bestow a Wisconsin sports team a regular season run like no other like our big run this summer, only to take it all away and shatter it because we are fielding a AAA team at the end of the season with all the injuries.
  22. adambr2
    Yeah, this Zimmerman guy looks like a keeper.
  23. adambr2
    Just stop, man.
  24. adambr2
    It’s a step in the right direction, but I wish they’d just rip off the band-aid and fully automate. If an umpire is missing egregiously like last night and the challenges are always kept, you might see 10-15 of those awkward challenge waits in a game. Maybe that’s a good thing. A form of public humiliation for the umpires if they’re really bad at their job.

    I know people don’t want to hear it, but Campbell’s approach is usually right and analytically correct. People can say “he hasn’t won anything like that” but just like the Brewers haven’t won anything like that, there’s a lot of luck and circumstance involved in professional sports. It doesn’t mean the process is wrong. It means that “the way things are done” becomes an engrained part of professional sports and those traditions are incredibly hard for coaches to break away from. It wasn’t that long ago that most teams punted on 4th and 2 from the 50. It wasn’t that long ago that the smartest baseball minds in the world thought that pitcher wins and batter RBIs were very important measurements.
