    Or at least ask one of his kids to ask Dad.

    Just so we're clear, Jake Bauers' actual level for his career is a well below AAA replacement level player, no regression to the mean needed.

    Given that the DH is a thing, help me understand why Jake Bauers has 327 plate appearances this season and Eric Haase has 58.

    I think what's special about it this year is this team wasn't expected to do this. Instead, they blew the doors off the rest of the division. Pretty cool. With that said, today has the "just another day" feeling to me more than in past years for two reasons: 1) This had been a forgone conclusion for weeks, 2) This organization has been here way too much in the last decade+ to treat this like a huge deal every year. It's time to move on to bigger things.

    Even if we could, I don't see the Dodgers going 6-5 when they play more than half their remaining schedule against Colorado. Not exactly an imposing remaining schedule they have left.

    Kind of bittersweet of a clinch coming up as our last gasp chance of catching the Phillies pretty much dies with this loss. Not only do we drop back to 4 GB but they clinch the tiebreaker. Was always going to be tough to get the sweep.

    It's fine as long as you're going to limit him to 5 innings and not try to push him a 3rd time through the order.
  8. adambr2
    I know it's obviously coincidental, but this is probably the 5th GT in the last month where everyone gushing about Montas was immediately followed by a bad inning for him.
  9. adambr2
    Great win. To have any real chance of catching the Phillies, you have to have the sweep. That would put them 1 game down, but likely with the tiebreaker. Just win the next 2.

    This is a team that really could have benefited this year from the old September roster expansion rules. We'd probably be using a 34, 35 man roster right now, there'd be no running out of arms.

    Yeah, the rationalization was on Devin was a little weak, to me. He's either available or he's not. If it's so essential to limit him to a low amount of pitches than you'd honestly have been better off just saying he wasn't available. I also thought it was strange that he called it a "consensus" decision. You are the manager of the Milwaukee Brewers, correct? It's not run by a committee. Step up and take ownership of the decision. I don't know who was in on the consensus, but Devin definitely wasn't among them. None of this is to say that Murphy isn't a good manager and doesn't deserve Manager of the Year award. It doesn't mean all his decisions are beyond reproach and not subject to examination.

    Can you name one single time this season where the sac bunt method in extras has produced the intended result? (I.e, leadoff man successfully sacrificed man to 3rd, next batter produced ground ball or flyball that successfully scored run from 3rd that would not have otherwise scored from 2nd). I'm not asking to be snarky, I just cannot think of even one specific time when it has worked successfully.

    Also, on Narveson. Both games I found myself being excited for our kicking game again, only to be deflated with the "here we go again" feeling on the miss. It *feels* like he's better than Anders, and the eye test to me makes it seem like he's better than Anders. So I think some patience is warranted. That said, kicking is a cutthroat business in the NFL, where your average kickers might miss 5 field goals in an entire season. So I'm good for now, but another miss next week and you're going to see that leash really start to get shorter.

    The punter for the Texans blows.
  15. adambr2
    This is a dumb challenge, as I would expect from the Bears. There's two instances in the process where the ground helped him make the catch as the ball touched the turf.
  16. adambr2
    One of the worst innings of baseball managed by any manager all season. Doesn't look like the 1 run from your attempted sac bunt would have cut the mustard, Pat.
  17. adambr2
    All this just for Koenig to blow it in spectacular fashion.
  18. adambr2
    STOP trying so hard to give away outs in extra innings. Just STOP. Thank goodness Chourio (and the Diamondbacks) bailed us out of another extra innings offensive debacle.
  19. adambr2
    You had a way out of this before that wild pitch! Uggghhh
  20. adambr2
    Sean Payton is so overrated. He's really getting exposed.
  21. adambr2
    I've seen him do some pretty crazy things this year in the name of his love for Jake Bauers, so I wouldn't be certain.
  22. adambr2
    He's not going to be traded (pretty sure he's got a NTC anyway), but if we're speaking purely hypothetically, depends on the return and how much of his tab they're picking up.
  23. adambr2
    So Gallen gets 6 inches off the outside corner but Ross can't get the call on two legitimate strikes in one AB. Got it.
  24. adambr2
    That 3rd strike to Ortiz wasn't even close. Gallen doesn't need help. MLB umpires are the worst in professional sports, yet somehow proud of themselves. They are far too incompetent to walk around with a constant chip on their shoulder like they always do.
  25. adambr2
    I don't want to get on Adames too much, he's one of our best players. But man on 3rd with 1 out is a situation where you can NOT be caught looking at strike 3 -- especially in a game where runs will be hard to come by. Swing the bat.
