  1. If I'm the Mariners I'm not feeling great about a G5 against Skubal, although they did manage to pull it off before.
  2. I've been thinking about that the last couple days as well. In general, I would say we tend to view decisions from a risk averse perspective. Playoffs are a different animal of course because the stakes are much higher, but even in the regular season, we tend not to take the long view. From a manager's perspective though, it's not only about winning the game, it's developing the players on your team. I imagine there are times where the manager is thinking "boy, I have no idea if this guy can actually do this or not," but they also know that you have to put the player in the situation to find out, and the very act of doing that is what allows the player to succeed. It's much easier to nitpick from the sidelines than be the actual leader making the decisions.
  3. You're probably right, but if we lose 3-1 the pitchers aren't the problem.
  4. Which hypothetical big bat would fit given our current big bats and the positions they occupy? And would the marginal upgrade be worth it for a team that, yes, has to consider the financial limits within which they operate? Of all the years, this is the most reasonable one to say, "You know what, we're just going to run it back because we're better than everyone else and our young players are just going to get better."
  5. Per the Brewers site: "Single-game tickets for the NL Championship Series and World Series will be available for purchase at a later date. Continue to check back for more details." I'd expect that yes, there will be seats available for more than SSH paid, but less than crazy prices on the secondary sites.
  6. The questions is how many will he have at the end of the season.
  7. That's not really relevant to this thread. Put it in the game thread if you want.
  8. That game was a ton of fun. Guys near us in the stairwell after the game were chanting "P-C-K! P-C-K!" In retrospect with the long layoff and off days, going full bullpen this game was brilliant - they needed work anyway and you don't have a game tomorrow, so almost everyone's available on Wed. As already noted, Quinn may well be pitching with the wind blowing in. Hats off to Murph.
  9. At the game, this is fun!
  10. Based on what Murph's done lately, I expect we'll get Uribe for whichever inning is highest leverage, unless it's 9-3 again, in which case whatever.
  11. Let's not devolve this debate into trying to declare who's a fan or not. People can be optimistic or pessimistic, or have different points of view about any number of things. Just saying "you must not be a fan" isn't helpful.
  12. He's done it multiple times this year already though, I don't think it's a big deal. If Priester does pitch today, I'm sure they already have it mapped out.
  13. Exactly. Ideally Ashby blows through 6 outs, Priester gives you 4-6 innings, and you're looking great for Game 3, when you can let Quintana go as long as he's rolling and yank him as soon as you need to.
  14. On the other hand, this Detroit/Seattle series has been fantastic.
  15. Yeah, I doubt Q was considered for game 2 for that reason. You want Priester pitching 2 games in this series if necessary. Starting with Ashby makes sense with some of the lefties they have.
  16. Patrick and Gasser aren’t in as starters. But they can both give a quality couple innings. Our bullpen is legit.
  17. Can you link or paste here instead of just referencing it?
  18. It may be a function of the short series and the days off. They’ll be able to use the top 4 a lot.
  19. FWIW, Brewers have released additional tickets in some sections for all games. Don't pay jacked up prices somewhere else.
  20. In case others, like me, don't have a streaming service that offers TBS: you can get a 21-day free trial of YouTube TV, which conveniently takes you to the World Series...
  21. Well, you can't control the list, but if you aren't marking a forum as read, I highly recommend doing so. Then the next time you go back in you can tell based on the font which threads on the list have new content, and if you click the blue dot/star on the left it'll jump you to the first unread post. Even if you don't mark the whole forum as read, that's still a helpful way to view threads and keep track of where you left off.
  22. Correct, it's the morning of the first game in each series.
  23. On topic, lots of great content in here: https://www.mlb.com/brewers/news/how-brewers-offense-makes-its-own-luck
  24. Feels like Toronto is going to expose NY's pitching, but hey, if Schlittler's going to throw another couple gems, anything could happen. He looked pretty electric.
  25. I'm sure PCA made a play or two, and I think Tucker had a nice catch at some point that took a hit away.
