Why were we so wrong about the Brewers? Did we underestimate their pitching? Are they the luckiest team ever? They faded for a bit but now they are playing their best baseball during the stretch run winning 10 of 12.

 

I am not too worried about the division but it's annoying that a superior team like the Cubs can't shake them.

 

horsefeathers happens. They still suck. And they played over their heads and did way better than they actually are. That will happen sometimes.

Things don't change. We split and we're overwhelmingly in the drivers seat. We lose 3 of 4 and things are nervous but still in our favor. We win 3 of 4 and things are over.

 

 

lose 3 of 4 and its a .5 lead with a week to go...i get the .5 lead but thats as thin as it gets

 

Yeah like I said it's nervous. The shitty thing is Lester will start the game after that series while the Brewers are off. So could easily make us tied with 6 to go. At that point our schedules are identical, 3 at home against the Reds and 3 on the road in St Louis. If we lose 3 of 4 and if we can't win on Monday against the Cardinals and if we can't outplay the Brewers over a 6 game schedule that is identical then whatever we clearly we're not as good as we thought. But that's a crapload of Ifs

I love all the terrified people trying to convince themselves that losing a game on the brewers tonight doesn't change anything. If the brewers win 3 out of 4 that game will look huge.
