  1. OFF: P DL Hall, 60-day IL ON: P Jose Quintana, signed The 40-man roster is full.
  2. OFF: P Robert Gasser, 60-day IL ON: P Tyler Alexander, signed The 40-man roster is full.
  3. It appears the Wisconsin State Journal has discontinued the scoreboard/transactions section on its Page B2. Scores and standings are 90% of the reason I look at the Sports section.
  4. Brewers ticket office leaving voice messages on my cell phone. Five times now. Nicholas, I'm not interested. Take the hint.
  5. Not doing this could lead to a case of age discrimination.
  6. I want to give Brady a chance, but more and more I miss Gregg Olson as their #1 analyst. I wonder how he feels about his demotion.
  7. OFF: P J.B. Bukauskas, outrighted ON: P Elvin Rodriguez, signed The 40-man roster is full.
  8. Reminds of the "Emergency!" episode where a twenty-something Tony Dow was a looter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MD-h2Qp5c8
  9. OFF: P Tyler Jay, DFA ON: P Grant Anderson, acquired The 40-man roster is full.
  10. San Diego executes the NFL's first successful fair catch FG in 48 years. I'm fascinated because 1) I'm a rules nerd and 2) John Madden talked about this repeatedly during his years a broadcast analyst. Mason Crosby was just short on one years ago.
  11. OFF: P Devin Williams, traded ON: P Nestor Cortes, acquired 2B Caleb Durbin, acquired Edit: The 40-man roster is full.
  12. ON: P Connor Thomas, Rule V
  13. My wife walks into the room, "Look, it's Shabozi!" I did not watch the fourth quarter, but did see the final play on CBS post game. Chicago Sports Radio: "Matt Eberflus ought to just walk into the interview room and just resign." Interesting that it was a CBS game and not a FOX game. Yeah, I know things have changed. Just hard to follow anymore.
  14. OFF: P Hoby Milner, non-tendered ON: P Chad Patrick, selected P Logan Henderson, selected
  15. The Bears did the same thing to the Packers, soon after Walter's death.
  16. OFF: SS Willy Adames, contract expired P Wade Miley, contract expired P Joe Ross, contract expired C Gary Sanchez, contract expired P Frankie Montas, contract expired P Colin Rea, contract expired P Kevin Herget, waived P Rob Zastryzny, waived P Bryse Wilson, outrighted 1B Jake Bauers, outrighted ON: OF Christian Yelich, activated P Brandon Woodruff, activated P Robert Glaser, activated P J.B. Bakauskas, activated
  17. I was at the game and seeing the play develop from high up was a thing of beauty. Even sweeter was being surrounded by 90% Packer fans.
  18. I'm a sliver surprised about not sniffing the Top 25 after three nice wins in the B1G.
  19. I could see at the top of the screen he was sprinting down the sideline at the snap.
  20. The ball is placed 25 yards from the kick scrimmage. The KO was from the 50 after the penalty.
  21. It was a good ride while it lasted. I wonder if they'll have to play in Miami or AAA Jacksonville?
  22. From a probability standpoint: Take the eight series (excluding 1982), then the expectancy would be 4.25 pennants (vs actual 8) and 3.125 WS championships (vs 5 actual). Don't ask me to calculate the odds of current reality happening.
  23. Before Game 3, the Brewers were 94-3 when the win probability exceeded 90%. To have just three gut wrenching losses over a season is quite exceptional. That makes Thursday night harder to digest. The fangraphs' box score had Williams at -0.85 and Alonso at +0.56. Cannot remember the last thing seeing numbers like that. I've never been keen to the idea of having four different guys pitch the last four innings. Just increases the chances of one guy screwing up. Forty years ago, Rollie would have pitched three innings in a game like this. But that is how baseball is played now. I get it. The discussion at work this morning is 1) let Peralta pitch the ninth or 2) pull Williams after two batters. But I understand Murphy's thinking. This game reminds me of 2019 against the Nationals (although the Brewers were underdogs in that one). Both three rounds removed from the WS, so either exit doesn't pain me as much as the rest of the posters. Williams reminds me of Hader, just doesn't give that warm fuzzy feeling. Seems to me they are either on, or you can tell within the first two batters disaster is about to happen. Agree with the above poster about Megill, someone with a bulldog mindset/personna. On edit: a silver lining, if any, is that when I'm in Florida the last week of the month, I can enjoy my vacation and not be in agony about missing the first WS in 42 years. Going forward, no vacations mid-Sept to end-Oct.
  24. The odds of having two or fewer out of nine on coin flips is 9.0%
  25. A take from the 1982 film, the Brewers were gassed flying in to Anaheim and played flat the first two games. Things were happening so quickly.
