  1. I’ll stand behind Davell on his comments there
  2. Give me a Game 5 NLDS game from last year here
  3. Unless he’s hurt he at least makes the WC roster since you don’t carry like 3 of the regular SPs
  4. Yeah, that sums up the 2018 regular season perfectly. It was frustrating and mind-boggling and the Brewers played much better than anyone would have thought. i tried to warn you idiots but noooo "lol schoop what is stearns thinking lol the brewers are trash lol look at the run differential" Schoop hit .208/.254/.342 with them. I was right about that being an odd and bad move, horsefeathers he would’ve been our 4th best hitter in Sept with that line. Theo should’ve got in on that.
  5. i mean a pretty good player became prime barry bonds for the past month what the hell can we do Yes, that's the only reason we lost the division. Not that we scored 3 or fewer runs in 15 games in September. Not that we gave up 5 or more runs 10 times in September. Not that we stopped hitting home runs. IT'S JUST REALLY ALL CHRISTIAN YELICH GUYS That really is it though. He went peak Bonds for a month and they went like 27-8 or whatever and we went 16-12
  6. Hopefully the Dodgers/Rockies goes like our Game 5 vs the Nats last year
  7. That's kinda the rational thing to do. The Cubs have a better roster. They had a better chance to win the division. It looked like that nearly all year. There wasn't much need to worry. Then there was, and we all started worrying. and while you guys were jerking yourselves off in june about "vaunted run differential" or whatever you totally missed the big picture. on the one hand your self-delusion probably made the games more bearable so there is that It took the Brewers going nuclear for this mostly not to come true.
  8. It’s true. Tell me how they possibly are set up better than us moving forward here's the thing people like you don't think about - it doesn't matter who is or isn't "set up better." It's a meaningless term. All season long you dorks have been dismissing anything the brewers have done and then constantly ratcheting it back ever so slightly as they kept playing well. Guess who was "better set up" than the brewers after 2017. But here we are, because sometimes players fall off or get injured or don't improve like you'd think they would. If you want to console yourself that we have a bigger payroll, go for it. Im glad we do, because if we keep horsefeathering up with Darvishes and Morrows and Heywards etc we're going to need every funking cent. That’s completely fair. But to act like these last ~30 days have use doomed vs them is crazy. Congrats to them, they put together a good season and great final month. I still think we are better
  9. Stop trying to make these 2nd half stats mean more than they should. yeah only the first half stats mean anything, idiot Looking at the whole body of work of these guys means more
  10. We won 95 games despite dealing with a bevy of injuries and a travel schedule from hell. I'm sure we'll be fine. And yet were outscored in the second half and our offense plummeted to the bottom of the league. Some might be due to the schedule but its clear something stinks in Chicago. We will be fine, I'm just trying to drive the final nail in the "Cubs are better than the Brewers and will win the division stop worrying ninny" argument. Stop trying to make these 2nd half stats mean more than they should.
  11. They’re playing better right now/last month but they aren’t much better and aren’t better long term. But if you want to think that go for it. there it is It’s true. Tell me how they possibly are set up better than us moving forward
  12. They’re playing better right now/last month but they aren’t much better and aren’t better long term. But if you want to think that go for it.
  13. Ah, Ross Stripling and the band of bums to Jensen is not better than the Brewers
  14. I can see how going to Wilson was the right move. Arcia vs LHP/RHP shouldn’t matter, he’s Orlando Arcia and sucks and you’d rather have Wilson vs a RHB option vs Cishek’s vs Shaw or Thames or Granderson. Going to Cishek in a K spot was dumb and then to Kintzler at all and probably should’ve just let Chavez ride it out to begin with. But get how Wilson was probably the rightish move, the decisions after it sucked.
  15. Randy should get the CY Young for K’ing Yelich
  16. Maples was a better choice over Cishek. Cishek can’t strike anyone out and is just gassed
  17. Ballgame, start planning for tomorrow. We had our chance and blew it
  18. Gotta bunt or use Gore to steal there, I feel like
