  1. Paul Chryst offensive game plan: "Hand it off to Mellusi on 1st down and then on 2nd and 3rd just have everyone run around and see if anyone gets open I dunno"
  2. Bucks waive Mamadi Diatke.
  3. Narvaez and Pina are neck and neck on OPS which is kind of nuts considering how they both started in the 1st half.
  4. Did anyone think there was any possibility at all of Lauer getting through 6 today after the 1st inning? Wow.
  5. I will await the go ahead from the panic police but until then I think 99.8% is the current number being thrown around. I always wonder how much the percentages account for momentum, if at all. I can't tell you how many times I've been following a sports GameDay and seen a 75-80% chance of winning and laughed as it plummeted to the other side. Anyway, we're not really in "panic" territory unless we go into the final series still having not clinched, but pretty much every historic collapse in sports history started with a very high probability on one side.
  6. In any legitimate league Hubbard absolutely should have been/should be locked until after Monday nights game.
  7. I’m confused as to why this bothers you? I didn't get the impression that it did bother him, but I can understand why it would. I have no issues giving to charity and do, but to me this is soliciting charitable donations under false pretenses. Being conned into making a charitable donation that you assumed was going to the service workers at the stadium feels kind of wrong to me.
  8. Understand that I know that the chances of the Brewers winning the division is still >99% at this point. But it shouldn't even still be in question. The only reason they held off celebrating clinching was that the division seemed to be a foregone conclusion. It's a little embarrassing that days later we're still right here.
  9. So you are saying we could go 162-0 next year? Yeah, statistical improbability over 10 games and statistical improbability over 162 games are the same thing. Good grief.
  10. It’s not though. The Brewers had 9 more wins than St. Louis at the start of today. Even if Milwaukee didn’t win again this year in the regular season they’d finished 91 and 71. The Cardinals have to go 9-2 to tie. Anything is possible, but the chances of the Brewers finishing the year with a 14 game losing streak and the Cardinals also winning 25 out of their final 27 games is in reality zero percent. Except the Brewers don't need to lose 14 in a row and the Cardinals don't need to win 25 of 27 from right now because a great portion of that has already happened. The Cardinals play the Cubs 7 times in their last 10. If they sweep us it is not that difficult to surmise them winning all 7 against the Cubs. Then we get the Dodgers in L.A. who most likely will still be playing for their division. If we get swept there, then even winning 2 out of 3 against the Mets, which hardly looks like a foregone conclusion, doesn't get us there. There are still a lot of things that have to go wrong and yes it is still a statistical improbability but when you look at each possible event independently, none of them are implausible.
  11. If we lose today, it really is not hard to come up with a scenario that the Cardinals enter the last series against us with control over their own destiny for the division. This is not at all possible. Our magic number is 3 and we have 3 games left after we play the Cardinals next week. The earliest they could control their own destiny for a division TIE would be after Game 160 for both teams. Yes, this has been refuted and acknowledged numerous times by me already.
  12. Time to turn this hot garbage off. So pissed at this team for pissing this away when we were finally getting something good to happen. Against the Cardinals. Screw this.
  13. Is there anyone who wants to step up and prevent a historically ridiculous divisional collapse? Doesn't seem like it should be much to ask but it apparently is.
  14. If we lose today, it really is not hard to come up with a scenario that the Cardinals enter the last series against us with control over their own destiny for the division. It's actually impossible, because we are 3 wins from clinching regardless of what the cardinals do. So theoretically even if we lose today, all 3 against the mets, all against the Cardinals, we can still sweep the Dodgers and clinch. This is all hypothetical of course. Most likely we clinch this weekend. You're assuming after all that we're going to go into L.A. and sweep the Dodgers? You're right though I was wrong about the controlling of their own destiny. Forgot about the Dodger series.
  15. If this continues, they're going to turn into meaningful games. Nope. They literally need to lose every game they have left. Not to mention the team behind them have to win virtually every game they have left. Hell, I would limit the innings of the big dogs and late inning guys and let Gustave, Norris, etc pitch a lot these last 9 games Magic number is 3, so this is not entirely true. Losing 2 out of 3 to the Mets is plausible and the Cubs sweeping the Cardinals is plausible. That puts us needing to beat the Cardinals in the last series of the season.
  16. Yelich sucks. Enjoy that $200M and we'll enjoy that .700 OPS I guess. Awful albatross of an extension.
  17. If we lose today, it really is not hard to come up with a scenario that the Cardinals enter the last series against us with control over their own destiny for the division.
  18. They're going to get meaningful in a hurry if they don't actually win one here in the next few days.
