    Do you ever make a post that isn’t deliberately provocative? He’s obviously pointing out that we are chasing bad pitches.
  2. adambr2
    Except the ones actually in the zone.

    Quintana, Uribe, Miz, Megill, Ashby… hell I’d say anyone but Priester. It’s the NLCS. They’re all available if it comes down to it.
  4. adambr2
    Yeah I hope so. I’m not saying he’s definitely just not a postseason guy, but we’ve really never seen him be one, either.

    I know this is going to be a controversial question , but does Yelich absolutely have to start every day? Even against tough lefties? I like the Jansen idea against Snell.

    I’m really nervous about Freddy facing Ohtani and Freeman several times tonight. Hope we can get a clean start.

    4 times in base in 18 PA is a .222 OBP. That definitely seems like the definition of black hole to me. It’s not an absolutely huge deal to me, though I’d prefer Mona, but unfortunately we did not do anything to improve our SS situation in July and so now we are stuck with who we have. I hope that’s not the status quo for 2026, but that’s a conversation for another day. I'd start with Mona, see if you can get a spark and if he doesn’t show much the first couple ABs, you can easily go to the bench and then put Ortiz in to where he probably only needs to see one AB tonight. I expect they’ll probably start Ortiz anyway, and I hope it is not Blake and Ortiz back to back.

    Sure, they look super close if you’re going to only include their career numbers and not look at the entire picture including the context of how they’ve both played this season. If career numbers were the only piece of information that mattered, Rhys Hoskins would be on the playoff roster and no one would be penciling in Andrew Vaughn and Jake Bauers into the lineup tonight.

    Ortiz has a .368 OPS in the preseason. That’s pitcher level bad. It’d be one thing if he had a strong regular season track record to fall back on to assume he’ll get it going, but he doesn’t. The last four games have produced 1, 3, 0, and 3 runs, respectively. I understand that run prevention is a big part of this team but none of that matters if you can’t score.

    Guess I’m not sure what you mean by poor scheduling? You just mean unfortunate circumstance? We had to throw everything at the wall to try to beat the Cubs. It’s unfortunate that we couldn’t line things up the way we wanted, but the Dodgers clinched before we did and had more time. It is what it is.
  12. adambr2
    Yeah… to be honest, we had no business winning last night, we were outplayed in about every way. Tonight is pretty big, so hopefully we can start swinging the bats. Any victory would do but a resounding 6-2 win or something would inspire some confidence heading to L.A.
  13. adambr2
    Monasterio started 3 games against the Dodgers this year. The Brewers gave up a total of 7 runs in those 3 games. We were fine. Remember when Ortiz missed the last half of August? Can anyone recall off the top of their head anything that went totally wrong at SS? Contrary to popular belief, the infield defense of the Brewers does not completely cease to function with Monasterio in for Ortiz.
  14. adambr2
    They won’t do this, but I’d like: 1 - CF Frelick 2 - RF Chourio 3 - LF Bauers 4 - C Contreras 5 - DH Yelich 6 - 1B Vaughn 7 - 3B Durbin 8 - 2B Turang 9 - SS Monasterio
  15. adambr2
    Yelich: .619 OPS Frelick: .511 OPS Turang: .452 OPS I know last night was really tough with Snell, but we have to get more from our big lefty bats to have a chance to win this series.
  16. adambr2
    I don’t think there’s much doubt that if Turang didn’t get out of the way we would have won last night.
  17. adambr2
    You’re right, some more perspective is probably good. Freddy could come through tonight, we could swing the bats better. Here’s hoping. Going into L.A. down 2-0 would be a pretty tough spot.
  18. adambr2
    This was a tough one to swallow, because it would have been one of the most epic playoff wins in Brewers history. We need 6 really good innings out of Freddy. I wonder if they’ll open with a lefty just to get through Ohtani and Freeman the first time or just go with a traditional start for Freddy.
  19. adambr2
    So you want to lead off with the guy who has a .511 playoff OPS. Against lefties.
  20. adambr2
    I’m ok with the way we approached their hitters. Allowing 2 runs should win most games. Yelich has gotta hit more. Turang has gotta hit more. Frelick has gotta hit more. I know these are tough pitchers we’re going up against, but either you hit more and you give yourself a chance or you don’t and it was a nice season and see you in 2026. That’s unfortunately all there is to it.
  21. adambr2
    I think lowkey one of the most disappointing things about tonight is that you had one of the most insane plays in MLB history occur and instead of it being an enormous part of our 2025 World Series story it’s just a footnote now.

    We lost, but at least he doesn’t have a bruised thigh.😆
  24. adambr2
    I mean, yes, but the pressure tomorrow is heightened quite a bit. If you head to L.A. without a single win your chances of winning the series are somewhere between slim and none.
  25. adambr2
    We need to score more than 2 runs per game. That’s our average the last 3 games and our current problem.
