    I thought our pitching was bad but they pitched well enough to lull me into a false sense of security. Don't get me wrong, I knew we needed multiple new arms but I was confident enough about how they performed to be caught off guard when they were suddenly terrible.

    I wasn't going to watch this game to avoid being in a bad mood, and I caved and now im in a bad mood

    Do have an off day Thursday and with Shota going....if he wasn't coming off the White Sox debacle you could probably count on him to give you at least 6 tomorrow. But yeah in general there's no reason to lift him if he pitches well next inning.

    Cubs desperately trying to give the Brewers multiple outs

    Have to say with PCA, whenever I think he's starting to go into a funk he seems to snap out of it quickly. Incredible player.

    I said I was going to ignore this game and just check the score at like 8:45 but here I am watching the painful procession of Brewers batters yet again.
  10. UMFan83
    Babe Ruth missed a grand slam by inches
  11. UMFan83
    I'm sure this will turn out well
  12. UMFan83
    For as many balls that were hard hit that inning getting only 1 is a little unlucky
  13. UMFan83
    Please no DPs
  14. UMFan83
    Just turned it on at 6:43 and the Cubs have already been retired in the 1st? wtf

    Isn't data from the first 50 games of the season also relevant? The Cubs offense might not have as much depth/variety as Milwaukee but the data we've gathered this season suggests that the Cubs are a better offense overall. Even if you look at since June 1st which is roughly when the Brewers got hot, their offense has been almost identical in terms of wRC+ and wOBA. Maybe the Brewers just needed some time to get going and they are actually this good, but a season is a roller coaster and the Brewers are currently in a peak. We play 162 games to try to capture all those peaks and valleys as best as we can. So far the data shows that the Cubs and Brewers are very close. Maybe in a month the Cubs are the team that gets red hot and the Brewers are merely good.

    why do you keep bringing up Cam Smith in this post? Do you mean Matt Shaw?

    Yesterday was extremely frustrating and then sad with the Ryno news, but I said coming into the series that 1 of 3, while not ideal, is acceptable so I'll save most of my irrational panic until after Wednesday's game if they for some reason get swept.
  18. UMFan83
    I was hoping that somehow Ryno's spirit would somehow compel us to victory tonight, but the Brewers voodoo devil magic is too strong. RIP Ryno sorry we couldn't do better for ya
  19. UMFan83
    Right..would have seen Pressly too.
  20. UMFan83
    Get it together Seiya yeesh. 2-31
  21. UMFan83
    Seems like a stupid decision down 2. Completely changes the inning FFS
  22. UMFan83
    Given their .140 xBA entering this game I can assure you their wRC+ this game isn’t great
  23. UMFan83
    Here comes the lefty for the L-Slump-L part of the order lol
  24. UMFan83
    The top 5 exit velocities in the game, 9 of the top 11 and 12 of the top 15 have been hit by the Brewers
  25. UMFan83
    So we need some pitching
