honestly more concerned about Vogelbach than Alonso in this situation

I agree with this insomuch as Alonso was already on the bench, while Vogelbach was standing in the batters box.

I am ok with the “let the leadoff hitter reach and then quickly get 3 outs” strategy as long as it works

Tallion has been really good and it's come at a perfect time.

I wonder what Tauchman's WPA is over the last month

[UMFan83]

Brewers and Rockies going into extras

 

nats beat the Phillies in game 2

angels had a 4-0 on SF but it’s 4-3 now

[UMFan83]

The Brewers have walked 3 straight runs in with the bases loaded and 0 outs on 12 straight pitches

Rockies up 7-3

It should be more, but they kept swinging at pitches out of the zone after the reliever had walked three straight guys on 12 pitches to drive in three runs

Back to where we were Sunday, percentage points ahead in the WC, 1.5 GB in the Central

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Giants, Padres, and DBacks lose.

The only team we didn't gain ground on today was the Marlins and they played the Reds so we couldn't gain ground on both.

Great day. Now win the series tomorrow.

You have to think this will have been the best stretch of Tauchman's career

Baseball Reference says this season he is arb elegible. Have to think the Cubs keep him around as the 4th outfielder based on his play. For now I'll just enjoy him being a stud
