Is this true? We can celebrate in Wrigley, on their mound, take pictures etc. like they did to us a few years ago at Bush?

It’s poor form to celebrate a wild card berth when you can still win the division.

Yes, no bubbly needed...celebrate for sure, but more for sweeping them in Wrigley and eliminating one more from the race.

Will Ozuna's power numbers rebound as well as a passable left field arm? How does Bader progress offensively? What do we get out of RF both offensively and defensively? Does Mikolas follow up with another solid year both productively and as an innings eater? Can Carlos return to form and is he healthy (starter velocity was dipping)? Will Flaherty show progress, flatten or regress? What does Wacha give you? How much does A. Reyes contribute and where? Can Hicks progress with better fb command and with his off speed stuff? Can he close? Can Andrew Miller handle another full season of work after being run practically into the ground? Is this the year you see significant regression from Carpenter and/or Molina? Can DeJong up his OB numbers and cut down on his SO's? Can Molina come back healthy and contribute daily with solid D and stay within himself offensively?

You hit positively on a lot of those if's and you can be a division contender...likely? No, but possible. Fail on most of those and you can just as easily regress and fourth might be where you land.
LMAO Baseball is funny indeed.

Brewers are now 16 games over .500 and yet still have a -2 run differential for the year.

At least they finish on the road. Both teams have losing records, but I don't think the Reds and the Rockies will go spread eagle for them the way the Shittsburgh did.

GREAT JOB, WAINNIE. Now you should go in that dugout and kick the crap out of Ozuna for getting you in that situation in the first place.

BigRedChief 09-24-2019 05:53 AM
Magic number of Cardinals wins or Brewers losses needed to clinch the division is 3 with 5 to go.

They are near a record pace for fewest errors in a season. They have a fantastic defense.

George Liquor 09-24-2019 11:26 AM
If this team plays bad defense, what was the Matheny years? Actually, I dont want to think about those ever again. Nevermind.

Okay, I know. I got pissy because Ozuna obviously dogged that play for some reason and I mentally went back to those Matheny years for a second. My bad.

at least we’re hot too.

Flaherty with a no hitter through 5 innings with 70 pitches. So much for him being too tired for this start after throwing 118 pitches last start.

Frazod 09-24-2019 09:22 PM
Leake is being a real pain in the ass, though.

Too bad they had Ozuna played so perfectly. He hit that DP ball hard. Yadi's double would have scored two. :banghead:

Dude couldn't get the umpire to give him that strike below the knees (they weren't strikes) and so rather than work it up a couple of inches to get the call, he just ****ing hangs one in the middle.

His numbers are bad - his actual performance has somehow been even worse.

This team has $18 million in free agent lefthanded relievers in the organization and somehow the only lefty that is occasionally worth a damn is Tyler Webb.

I'm just so tired of hearing how Miller has "really come on in the 2nd half..."

No, his stuff has actually backed up. He's still working at 92 on a good day and his slider still has no depth. His K rate has cratered and his walk rate has gone up. The only thing that has saved him (sorta) is a ridiculously low .217 BABIP in the 2nd half. The guy's as dog-ass as he was to start the year and I can tell because I actually watch him throw the baseball.

He isn't good at it.

For all the wailing about Carlos Martinez - Andrew Miller is the guy y'all should truly be climbing on. He's actually bad.

BigRedChief 09-25-2019 02:26 PM
Got all the minor leaguers in there today. Lose today and the brewers sweep the Reds, it’s a 1 game lead. We were all set if ****ing Miller can keep the ball down. Now we are going to have to maybe sweep the Cubs again after losing 2/3 in Arizona. Burn a Flaherty start instead of starting him game 1 against the Braves.

we had better have seen the last pitch thrown by Wacha in a Cardinals uniform. No way he should be on the playoff roster even if he says the shoulder tightness is better by the weekend. If they don’t get their heads out if their ass back in St.Louis, it may be a WC.

We're just in it for a t-shirt regardless. No way does this team advance against the Braves or Dodgers. Might be best to be put out of our misery quickly.

I agree that the Braves are a better and more consistent team. But.....Flaherty going on 8 days rest and being able to start a game 5 gives us a fighting chance if we catch a few breaks and if someone gets hot that’s not now. Ozuna, Carp, Delong have all went on tears in a series and carried the team. Lot of if’s that’s for sure. Even Flaherty and if’s ain’t going to get us past the Dodgers.

I’ll still take this over bad defense, base running and a Matheny coached team.

Yea we may as well just lose out, no way winning the division and watching a post season series for the first time in 4 years could potentially be fun.

'Hamas' Jenkins 09-25-2019 04:57 PM
For all the bitching about other guys, it's Junior Fernandez and John Gant that have crushed this team. They teamed up to swing the 9th to the Brewers, costing the Cardinals two games there, then Gant imploded last night and Fernandez today. That's four games in the standings.

After being basically eliminated from the playoffs and the Pirates losing 9 straight they may have gotten a sense that the Pirates would have gone after a new manager that knows more about baseball than asking his pitchers to throw at the other team so they intentionally lost with 5 errors and now today it comes out that the Pirates plan to retain Hurdle.

I love it when a plan comes together.

Goddamn man we just completed a 5-2 road trip and swept the Cubs in 4 games in Chicago for the first time in 40 years.

We have to go 2-1 and they have to go 3-0 just for them to tie us. I dont see them winning out but hell who knows.

Yay, this team taking AB's against young pitchers we have never seen? That always works out well for us.:rolleyes:

If Miller just keeps the ball down we win that game, dont play 19 innings, we go into the weekend only needing 1 win and not burning Flaherty.

But, How many games did we give away waiting for Carp to get right? How many missed opportunities? etc.

At least they control their own destiny.

Oh yea new pitching always ****s us but he is shutting down several position players too.

We shall see. I just want to see a real life post season series for the first time in too many years. Postseason baseball is the shit. I dont expect to win the WS but I know Mo isn't going anywhere now so I am going to enjoy what I can instead of bitching about every little thing.

Well, he did grow up a Cards fan.

jd1020 09-26-2019 07:41 PM
Well, the only regulars that are actually healthy right now are Schwarber, Castellanos, and Heyward. So it's not like he would be sticking it to the Brewers by not playing Rizzo or Bryant with sprained ankles, Baez with a fractured thumb, Contreras still nursing a hamstring, though I suspect Contreras will probably play at least 1 game. The rest of the team aren't regulars.

The Cubs lost the last 2 against the Reds before getting swept by the Cardinals and now are about to get swept by the Pirates for their 9th straight loss, so if the Brewers some how pass you up for the division you ****ing deserve to be in the WC.
