  1. Part of it is this is a 7 inning game. Less opportunity.
  2. Yeah...I don't know what it is about the Cubs. They like really need to get chippy about strange things. Not a great way to go through 162 games... They're a bad baseball team. So they need to create drama and action from things other than winning baseball games.
  3. God dangit Freddy. I don't even know if we'll score 1 this game.
  4. It is depressing to hear a .772 OPS split against RHP by Yelich be described as "solid".
  5. Well presumably the points would be: 1) The final send-off, and 2) Possibly play his way onto the postseason roster if he's hitting well, since postseason rosters are a little different than regular season 26 man rosters situationally. But as you say, probably a moot point.
  6. Maybe if September rosters were still at 40 they could make room in September and see what happens. With only 28 now, I just can't see it.
  7. The OF is quite full, and Tellez has taken over the 1B job. It is over.
  8. We did gain a half game on the Reds today, so sometimes less is more.
  9. Cousins is set to be activated tomorrow, so more help is on the way.
  10. I think they are great……wouldn’t mind it as a permanent change though I know it won’t be. Agreed, 7 inning double headers are great. Wish they'd just schedule two a month or so for every team as a regular part of the schedule and give a few more days off during the season. It's one of the very few things MLB has done right in the Manfred era, so it won't last.
  11. Is it just me or is a split 7 inning doubleheader probably for the best anyway? Minimize the pen. Although we probably can't expect a long outing out of Ashby anyway.
  12. If we only play 500 ball the rest of the way, the Cardinals would need to go 36-15, or about .80 percentage points better than the best current team in baseball, just to tie us. Not concerned about St. Louis. They've dug too big of a hole. If they pass us, we had a total catastrophic collapse. And we play them 13 times…. Going let’s say 4-9 against them allows them to gain 5 games just there. I still think of 2011 when they were out of it… waaay out of it and just kept winning. Even in the WS, they were losing with no hope in Game 6. Just crazy how they came back. If we go 4-9 against the Cardinals, the problem is us, not the Cardinals.

  14. Bottom of the order coming up in the 9th too, so not feeling great about this one although I guess other than Bradley it's not terrible. Got to get someone on and then take a shot with Adames.
  15. This kind of garbage baseball is not going to get the job done against the high quality league teams like the Giants.
  16. Here is a sample of what we were saying in the IGT about Drew Pomeranz during his 5th appearance with the Brewers on August 13, 2019… At that point Pomeranz had gone 5 appearances, 6.0 IP, 5 hits, 4 walks, and 4 earned runs while having a .979 OPS against. After that he went 20 appearances, 20.1 IP, 11 hits, 4 walks, and just 3 earned runs while having a .443 OPS against. I’m not suggesting either will turn into Pomeranz, but I think we need to give these guys a little more leeway before we make any definitive conclusions, especially in the case of Curtiss who has been the victim of some awful defensive blunders. I'm certain I'm being overeactionary, yes. But I also think that anyone expecting history to repeat itself with Pomeranz is probably looking at a pretty unrealistic scenario.
  17. I don't understand not taking a look. He's safe, but you never know what those dummies in New York will see. At this point in the game you basically have unlimited challenges, so there's nothing to lose.
