After reading Haurdicourt article this morning on Brewer future moves, I got thinking IF we make the playoffs, and I am optimistic we will, Who is our starting pitcher for the first game?

 

This isn’t the thread for that. Unless you were to say it could be Brent Suter and no matter who the opponent, we win 10-0.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

They would have to take at lest 2 against Atlanta. That is going to be tough happen given those pitching match ups.

Didn't say they couldn't or wouldn't. Touch none-the-less.

but it's not like every guy suddenly forgot every piece of advice he gave

Suck at math? Today is your day! Half way point so you can calculate our record pace by just doubling our current record!!!

 

Actually I'm pretty good at math. 51+35 = 86 games played. Multiplied x2 = 172 games... So we're actually 5 games past the halfway mark...

 

You are going to have a d'oh moment when you realize that post is from June 29.

The 1979 Brewers hold the team record for most wins in the first half with 54. That team went 54-38. Here’s a look at the Brewers teams with the most first half wins in a season.

 

1979 Brewers, 54

2014 Brewers, 53

2008 Brewers, 52

2017 Brewers, 49 (as of July 7… two games remaining in first half)

2007 Brewers, 49

2011 Brewers, 49

1978 Brewers, 48

1982 Brewers, 48

 

16 over at the break in 79 when I was 6. Let's do just one better!!!

 

Edit... assuming no rainouts, they would need to be 58-40 at the break to do better.

Wrong thread, I know, but the implosion of that 2014 team was pretty impressive.

 

First place for 150 days!

Would love this too, but is it realistic??

 

The optimism thread has no limits. We say what we want and then it happens (hopefully).
