That should have been ball 4.
-
Q seems to be laboring a bit. I don’t know if I feel great about sending him back out for the 6th against the meat of the Reds’ order, but with the long work by the pen the last couple days and the long week coming up, you have to.
-
I finally put some money on Ortiz today feeling like he’s gotten hot with the bat and he puts up two terrible ABs to start the game.
-
Good thing Yeli carried the offense in the opener, because he is 0 for 6 with 4 K’s since then.
-
I knew I would regret giving the umpire credit, although that was extremely close, it missed outside.
-
Haven’t watched ESPN much lately, does the sports media still portray Elly De La Cruz as the greatest player in MLB history? Don't get me wrong, he’s very good, but you’d think he was Derek Jeter.
-
Yeah I have no problem going after the first pitch if it’s the right one, just gotta make it count.
-
These guys gotta make Abbott work a little harder than this. He’s going to go 8 today if this keeps up.
-
This umpire is doing a good job so far. There’s plenty of game left to mess that up, of course. I just figured I’d say it while it’s true because it’s usually out the window by the 2nd inning.
-
I’m sure it’s some of both. And certainly, to be fair, that big of a gap doesn’t happen without some luck and circumstance.

Are the Brewers Peaking Too Soon?
adambr2 replied to TwinsBrewersWorldSeries's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
To answer the question, I don’t know if “peaking” is really a thing. You could have argued that we thought we peaked in July when we won 11 games in a row, only for that not to be the peak. Will we lose more games this season, and even have losing streaks? I suspect that we will. But I don’t think the run we are on now makes it less likely that we will have success in October. -
Are the Brewers Peaking Too Soon?
adambr2 replied to TwinsBrewersWorldSeries's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I guess this is more about enjoying the journey than the destination, which is a fair take. With that said, I can enjoy the journey, but if the destination doesn’t lead anywhere fruitful, I’ll be immensely disappointed. I can’t train my mind to think otherwise, especially after all the previous playoff disappointments. I get the mindset, but I also get the mindset of, what was any of this for if not for a World Series? Should we exit in the NLDS this year, I will probably have a couple days of the “all this was for absolutely nothing” mindset, and once the pain of the early exit subsides I’ll probably have a more measured “it was still a really fun ride” mentality. I say all this with the full knowledge that winning the ultimate prize will require winning 3 consecutive 7 game series’ against 3 of the best teams in baseball, and statistically the odds are still against it. -
Unfortunately that seems to be more of the norm these days, which is why I don’t advocate for bunting much.
-
Lockridge isn’t good. Thank you Elly, though!
-
Lockridge is a fine 5th OFer, but he’s far from a plug and play. Needed a better result from Turang that inning.
-
Turang has had some fine ABs in this stretch, but that definitely wasn’t one of them.
-
Appears that Murphy has abandoned the soft platoon at 3rd and decided that Seigler is strictly a bench guy. Of course, Littell has pretty neutral splits, even slightly reverse, so maybe that’s all it is.
-
I see no reason to concern ourselves with the Cubs’ day to day performance anymore. We are 8.5 games up. We got this. If not, if we blow that lead, we’ll have bigger problems than the Cubs. Won’t keep winning at a .800+ clip, but play out the rest of the season to our capabilities and we’ll be the 1 seed.
-
We enter today at #1 in MLB in runs scored, and #3 in runs allowed. That seems good.
-
It’s unfortunate that some players can’t control their inhibitions 9 months prior to the months of April-October.
-
He’s going to be great, but he still has more work to do. He’s going to be a fun guy to have moving forward. I have no illusions of him being a contributor for us in the playoffs this year.
-
Yeah, he won’t be close. He had a great night. Part of the beauty of the makeup of this team is that we don’t really have a legitimate star, and any of the guys could be our best guy on any given night.
-
Love Yeli, but he may not be the MVP of his own team. Ohtani has a 1.021 OPS, he’s going to run away with it.
-
Just wild. Wouldn’t have been fitting if this streak didn’t also include the biggest comeback of the season.
-
Speaking of egregiously bad, lol. Tight zone all night and then he goes out of the zone to ring up Turang.
