2018-03-29: OPENING DAY! Brewers (Anderson) at Padres (Richard) 3:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 2-1]

[MrTPlush]

Jacob Barnes is a big positive regression candidate. Is there a word for that? "Regression" doesn't feel like the right term.

 

Progression lol

[Greenleaf1]

Well, it was nice having you Ji Man, enjoy Colorado.

 

Hope they're making sure Jennings passes that physical tonight and gets on a plane to SD.

[WoahSolvdd]

Take that Reactionary Debbie Downers!

 

 

Ya, take that fans that aren't like "oh well we lost its ok" and react to someone blowing a game and are emotionally invested! How dare you point out a negative when there is a blown save or bad play.

It’s a joke, don’t take it to heart.

Sorry, I have to remember I am not on twitter.

Oh god, Barnes

[sarcasm]Yep, should have cut him[/sarcasm]

[WoahSolvdd]

Good comeback Brewers, lots of positives today.

 

Chase, Jeremy, Barnes, Arcia, Cain, Yelich, and Hader, I forget anyone? I turned the game in late..

[WoahSolvdd]

Oh god, Barnes

[sarcasm]Yep, should have cut him[/sarcasm]

 

Way to wait and say this after he struck out the side.

Comeback.

 

Nice W!

[adambr2]

Basically everyone Stearns acquired in the off-season (Cain, Yelich, Albers, Choi) played a big part in the win.

[adambr2]

Also, they were so awful in extra inning games last year, nice to see them take a step in the right direction there.

[torts]

On our way to 162-0!!!!!

It is. Regression to the mean. I'm right with you there. Not really expecting Knebel to have a great year, but guys like Barnes often emerge and have a great year. It's the nature of the beast with relievers. I believe he's the next Turnbow/Axford/Jeffress/Knebel breakthough candidate.

 

The Brewers bullpen was the story today, despite the blown save. Rock solid options all the way through. That's going to pay big dividends this year.

[WoahSolvdd]

Great win, Cain doing Cain. Chase awesome.

 

See ya guys game 2!

Regression is the correct word, you regress towards the mean, so, if you were unlucky you can get luckier.. Like Barnes might.

 

It's rarely used in that context however

[brewerswinNLcentral]

there is choi in muddville for the muddville nine have carried the day. great job brewers

[brewerswinNLcentral]

at one point cain and yelich were on on base 5 out 6 PA.....

[brewerswinNLcentral]

I would trade him to the yankees for a double A player

[brewerswinNLcentral]

the rays should pack up and move to vegas in 2 years.. they average 12,000 a game. it will be less in this 65 win season

[brewerswinNLcentral]

and as i post that seeing they were down 4-0 in the 8th, they score 6 runs in the 9th to win...lol

[superfly]

Braun looked pretty darn good at 1B to me. Compared to how everyone was fretting and the media making it a huge deal he looked like eric hosmer out there.

 

(Yes, im fully aware he will probably have a huge blunder soon, but Domingo already had a brain fart so we're sitting pretty at first)

[pacopete4]

Per Adam McCalvy:

Orlando Arcia on Chase Anderson's slide: "I think he wanted to touch home plate with his nose."

 

Love it.

Been saying it since he was in AA. He's nowhere near as bad as some on this board would have you believe. 3.88 FIP last year - not bad at all.

[TURBO]

Just glad to have Brewers baseball back!

 

Long off season, but here we are, at the beginning of yet another season!

 

Life is good!
