if the cubs can’t hold off a yelich-less brewers team over the last 17 games, they don’t deserve the honor of losing 7-1 to scherzer and the nats in the WC game anyway so who cares.

Man the five we gave up that should have been one stings. The Padres unfortunately still have a decent pen. Need to hold them.

Pretty much.

Solid work from Chatwood tonight.

When you are talking about an 17 game sample it’s feasible for the Brewers without Yelich to outplay the Cubs by 1 game, especially since the Cubs have basically been a .500 team since early May.

 

Well on June 1st the Cubs were a half game back of the Brewers, so what does that say about a team that again, just lost a top three player in baseball.

 

And again over a 18 game span its perfectly feasible that the Cubs could be outplayed by the Yelich-less Brewers by 1 game. When you get down to that few games you open up the possibility of a lot of randomness. Especially when those 18 games for Milwaukee include 15 games against the Marlins, Padres, Pirates, Reds and Rockies (other 3 vs STL).

 

If there were 60 games left, yeah of course the Yelich injury would basically be the end of the road for Milwaukee.

 

Definitely fair, was more responding to your ' Cubs have basically been a 500 team' comment. Neither of these teams have been impressive for a while, but the Cubs have been better, and that was about the worst thing that could happen to Milwaukee.

 

But also, more importantly, what abuck said.

Just so happy he was around long enough to skull horsefeathers us.

[TMan92]

This is one of those I will wish we lost by 8 if we lose by one.

[squally1313]

If one of these next few guys want to tie this up, I'd really rather not rely on beating Yates.

[soccer10k]

This is going to be annoying if we lose.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Yates has a 1.25 ERA. So the 8th is probably our last shot.

[TMan92]

That will do it

[squally1313]

Bed before midnight at least.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Nothing good ever happens when Greg Garcia is involved.

[TMan92]

Errors costing us two games this week. This team has like 6 coulda shoulda games in probably the last three weeks.

[TMan92]
