[Derwood]

2:15 to get through 5 1/2 innings

[Soul]

Maybe now’s the time to yank Civale.  Call it a good performance 

[ILMindState]

horsefeathers it run Civale, Peterson, and Assad as your playoff rotation. 

[Soul]

Sheeeet.  Nice work Civale.

I would say Holmes, Peterson and Assad.

Finally made it to the 7th inning

I’m currently leaning Holmes/Assad/Civale/Peterson too.

Holmes and Assad would definitely be my top 2 starters right now.

In all seriousness I still have faith in Gausman as a playoff starter. But I think having Brown, Steele, and Cabrera back will give you a lot of options with openers and playing each playoff game based on matchups.

Is Steele coming out of the bullpen as a multi innings guy?

[chibears55]

What happened to Julio Rodriguez this year, numbers seem to be down and unless i missed it, there was no real talk about him in the booth like they do for other team star players 

[mk49]

Can't believe Thornton has pitched 40+ innings for us.  And, he's been really good.

I don’t think they’ve decided yet but if he could open or even a whole time through the order and follow that up with Brown that could be awesome.

Gausman might be the X factor for them this year, he can be that guy that gives them the big starts.

[Soul]

Their defense is 100% USDA sheet.

Might depend on how effective he is when he does return,  im still kinda leaning on them only having him pitch a couple games and then shutting him down

Nice Pete

Note to Marquee, don’t show a replay during ANY PCA AB.

[Geographyhater8888]

This guy was being called PCAAA like 3 months ago which makes this even more horsefeathers insane.

Can the Brewers please lose tonight to take the sting off a little?

[ILMindState]

Alright, put Shota back in we got this now.

At this point we’re probably not catching them. I think I’m ok with them getting the 1 seed. You’re gonna have to beat the Dodgers to get to the WS and I’d rather Play them in 5 than 7
