  1. Does Turang do anything besides strike out?
  2. Needed to get Bauers in. I realize a great defensive play was made, but sure would’ve liked a better hitter than Ortiz up.
  3. You don’t have a lefty starting pitcher to start every single day. You have one single one, who is starting tomorrow.
  4. Then he probably shouldn’t be on the NLCS roster.
  5. I mean it doesn’t matter anyway at this point. Either he comes through and it’s somewhat of a momentum list or it doesn’t and this series is really no more of a disaster than it already is anyway.
  6. Great work Ashby. Thanks for the singular out. That’ll help beat LA.
  7. lol. Feeling awfully silly for feeling like we had a shot today.
  8. Some contact at least, somewhat of a threat at least. Another useless AB by Brice Turang. If you’re going to do a matrix like move to get out of the way of a ball to cost us game 1, at least come back to contribute later.
  9. Fair or not, I think Yelich bears the brunt of more frustrations than others because as the leader and veteran of the team, he’s kind of one that everyone is looking at and counting on to come through and lift the team up and help spark something. I would agree that in a vacuum, it’s everyone. Everyone but Chourio, perhaps.
  10. I can’t concur with any lineup that has Yelich batting 3rd right now. It isn’t like he’s hitting rockets and just finding gloves. He just looks completely lost. That said, I’m fully aware that he isn’t getting benched or dropped further than 4th in the lineup. They are sinking or swimming with him, and the same concept with Ortiz.
  11. If we get a win tonight, there’s still a shot for sure. Then you’ve got them under a little pressure knowing if they don’t win tomorrow the series is going back to Milwaukee and we get HFA back. Lose and I’m just kind of hoping we can steal one tomorrow before it’s over.
  12. Sure, if we’re always, perennially pretty good, that’s all true. That means avoiding slipping into another dark ages era of early 90s- mid 2000s, though.
  13. The impending end of the season saddens me, but the realization that these rhymes won’t be a daily part of my life again until next April does provide me with some small consolation. edit: @treego14just to be clear this was a lighthearted tease and your rhymes don't actually negatively impact my life. You are more creative than myself. I can’t even accuse you of using ChatGPT because you’ve been doing this long before that.
  14. I feel the same, but it does sadden me a bit to realize that I may just never see a Brewer World Series in my lifetime. It was a little like being a fan of the Badger football in their best years, where you have to accept that a Rose Bowl is your championship, you’re not competing for championships. In a similar way, winning the division and beating the Cubs felt like ours. We’ve had period where we could have broken through, 2011 in particular I think, but it just hasn’t happened. I look at teams like the Royals and think why not us, but luck and circumstance just hasn’t lined up for us. The Dodgers are what we are except they have money, which is an enormous advantage, but their rise has really only occurred over the last 5-10 years and it’s really hurt our higher aspirations. We’re well run enough, that’s not the problem. But the Dodgers have always had money, but now they’re also a finely tuned organization, whereas going back some years ago they just had piles of money and didn’t know what to do with it. Now they’ve put more of an emphasis on scouting and development and really put some distance between them and the NL.
  15. I changed my website layout from dark mode to light mode. We’ll see if that helps.
  16. Unfortunately, it’s a staff full of aces with no easy outs. It’s on us at this point. We can hit elite pitching when we’re right. We’ve always hit Skenes well. Yamamoto didn’t even make it out of the 1st last time, and then he goes 9 yesterday. Game 1 felt like it was more about how amazing Snell was and Game 2, not that Yamamoto wasn’t great, felt more about us not swinging the bats well.
  17. Much appreciated, and frankly, he probably gave me some good advice in that last post.
  18. I didn’t say I didn’t like you. I clarified what @wiguy94 was trying to say and said I think you know what he was trying to say.
  19. I’m irrationally pissed at Brice and wish I wasn’t. (I did say irrationally. I understand that it’s irrational, but I remain pissed). If Brice doesn’t move we’re almost certainly winning the game. We’ve got Vaughn up with the bases still loaded and Trienen is all over the place with just a walk, wild pitch or hit away from game over, and even if that doesn’t happen, extras. This franchise hasn’t been to a World Series in 43 years so of course the guy we send up to the plate didn’t have the foresight to think “I’ve got to wear one if it comes at me”. Easier said than done, I suppose. You’re right, the entire series turned on that one pitch and when he whiffed on the next one you just knew we missed our shot.
  20. Well, all we can do now is go out on Thursday and try to win a baseball game. Do I think we will, no, probably not, but just one game. If you do you’re in the closest position that the trailing team can be after any Game 3.
  21. There is hopefully a modest upgrade to Ortiz out there though for at least the ‘26 and ‘27 seasons.
  22. He’s been worthwhile enough in the regular season, but he really needed a few October moments. He’s done the opposite. You have a 21 year old on this roster who has looked far more mentally tough when it comes to playoff baseball.
  23. 1 inning of the Dodger bullpen that we saw in 2 games. 1 inning. That is sad.
  24. Murphy’s kids woken up minutes ago being rushed by Uber to AmFam for the press conference.
