2018-09-15: Pirates (Nova) at Brewers (Davies) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 3-1]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

HAVE to win tomorrow if we want any chance at the division.

 

I get it, but that's putting a lot of faith in the Cubs to continue playing good ball with some quality opponents coming up. That pen is in shambles. I guess they could pull it together, but the Brewers are in a much better place right now, record withstanding.

Well this isn't good.

Six innings to score at least one run against Nova and that pen.

 

Pirates have a good pen.

[adambr2]

I really don't mind if we only get a WC, but having to win an elimination game basically just to even get in sucks.

 

If we have no shot at the division heading into the last 2 games, Hader, Jeffress, and Knebel all need to be all off limits. We need to get those guys 3 days off and make sure we have all hands on deck and be prepared to use the pen for 6 or 7 innings if needed.

It isn't a must win but losing a series to a team that is out of it makes things harder. Go get 'em tomorrow and all will be well.

I don't know about that. The Cubs are up three games in the loss column. I'd rather be in their position than ours right now.

5-10 versus Pittsburgh so far this year. If failure to win the division would need to be summed up in one statistic at the end of the season, that would be a good one to choose.

 

The Pirates have been a real pain this year. Tough loss but hopefully we can come out tomorrow and get the series.

That's why I said record withstanding That close game luck is gonna run out at some point soon.
