4 division titles in a row, higher wins per season trend, all done with a high degree of self-developed talent. Of course it’s stupid to just assume the future will be exactly the same but the Brewers system is intentional, sustainable, and highly successful. What I’m more skeptical about is this idea that they cannot succeed in the postseason, just because they haven’t in past years. Cubs defeatism is also stupid, and I suspect a high degree of it is an emotional rather than intellectual viewpoint. What you are saying is absolutely true, and further - we should expect the farm to start producing better talent. -
They’re trending upward too. At this point I have to wonder why seemingly nobody is copying what they are doing. With Moneyball teams caught on and the A’s advantage went away.
-
As if being behind the Cardinals for years wasn’t bad enough, we get to pull up behind the one team in baseball that puts up season after season of budget-friendly 90+ win seasons. Relatively few injuries too. It’s uncanny. I’m whining, but it’s really bizarre.
-
I’ll just bask in the glory of Packers suckage these next couple days; worry about it later. But I agree with your point.
-
They were leaking oil all the way down the stretch. Barely made it across the finish line. Nobody will remember that the Cubs were a playoff team this year. They will remember that a Cub player had one of the best years in baseball history. They will remember PCA.
-
At least the seeding doesn’t matter. They’ll be swept out of the playoffs regardless of where the games are played. May as well be away from Wrigley.
-
Yet the FO will consider it an accomplishment because they squeaked in despite the injuries. Which I understand to a degree but still…
-
The symmetry between this and Cubs/PCA awesomeness is delightful.
-
And kiss my lily white ass, Marlins.
-
The Bregman injury is like a lightning bolt out of the sky. God saying “not so fast, little ones.”
-
Padres 4-1 now.
-
At least the Crew did their job tonight.
-
I mean, the DBacks aren’t sweeping the Padres period end of story; so they aren’t getting in.
-
TT must be hurt.
-
Webb pitched out of trouble. I’m gonna grasp on to that and consider it a positive.
-
This putrid franchise has no fans and seemingly only exist to find cheap-ass ways to beat the Cubs.
-
Amaya never came back. It’s the Ghost of Amaya.
-
RISP. Time to fail.
-
Two runs wouldn’t be a big deal if there wasn’t a total power outage by the offense
-
These Marlin announcers don’t seem to understand that some ballparks have fans. And fans that are excited about baseball too.
-
Steal steal steal!!
-
I think Bregman makes the whole offense better.
-
Great tag.
-
WTF? I’m watching Marlins because I’m in Florida. I swear they’re acting like they’ve never seen it before.
-
Marlins announcers were like whoa! Where did this come from?!? I don’t think he throws that hard like he did last night. They were at it again during the pregame.
