As long as Anderson keeps it in the park tonight, I have a good feeling about this game.

"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.

If Homer Bailey dominates us I don’t think I will muster the strength to turn on a game for a long time.

 

It seems like sub-par pitchers with high ERAs dominate the Brewers, while the Brewers often fare well against aces, so I could see a shutout tonight.

Im reading these comments and figured it was like 6 to 0 or something so i go check the score and its 2-0 lol

2-0 is pretty daunting with Cy Baily on the hill. We'll be lucky to pull this one out.

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

Fly ball hit about 280 feet, crowd of 20K erupts. Womp, womp.

Gonna be one of those clog the bases nights.. feels like the bottom of the order needs to break the ice and score next inning.

 

Is it just me or has Shaw really scuffled in rbi situations lately with runners on?

 

Could probably replace Shaw with most guys on the Crew.

Dumbfounded that Thames is on the bench and both Braun and Aguilar are in the lineup.

 

Chalk another to the Counsell head-scratcher list. He's really been out-thinking (or under-thinking) himself lately.

 

I'm thinking he has to be waiting for him to pinch hit late in the game if we have a couple runners on.

Well we need 3 to win and haven't put that up since the Cubs' series, so the concern may be warranted here.

Go look at Brauns career numbers against Bailey and then edit your post.

With RISP he has a .790 OPS this season, compared to a non-RISP of .825. Not as good, but not scuffling.
