2019-09-21: Pirates (Marvel) at Brewers (Davies) [Brewers win, 10-1]

Time for the entire forum to pitch in and get a suite.

 

I'm thinking that bullpen party area.

 

That would be awesome.

 

I feel like there would be constant arguing and hugging it out every two minutes on repeat and 1-2 people just repeatedly trying to call Stearns to sign anyone who made one decent play to a 4-10 year deal

I feel the opposite. I think computer dialogue is so much different compared to when it’s a face to face environment. But I get the joke.

That should pretty much do it for a wild card berth.

 

If they hold this three game lead after tomorrow they should be set. A two game lead could realistically fall apart in 6 games...3? That would take a lot going wrong.

 

Like getting swept by the Reds? That hasn’t happened in over 2 months.

 

The Brewers are now in a good spot, but I wouldn’t take anything for granted.

That's the best breaking stuff Nelson has had this year by far.

I will wait until after tomorrow. You can’t lose to Pittsburgh.

 

I’m assuming the cubs sweep Pittsburgh

Nats have seven tough ones after this Marlins series.

 

They actually have 8 games (all at home), including a doubleheader against the Phillies.

 

This is where looking at the loss column makes sense. The Nats are 1 game ahead of the Brewers, but 2 games ahead in the loss column. So, simply put, the Nats have to lose two of their remaining 9 games for the Brewers to even have a chance to catch them.

 

The Phillies are hanging by a thread in the wild card race so hopefully they will come out swinging as their last gasp. The Indians (who the Nats play next weekend) have a better chance of still being alive when they go to DC.

 

The Brewers have an “easier” schedule from the standpoint of not playing playoff contenders, but those road games are going to be a lot tougher than playing the Pirates and Padres at home. The Reds have pitchers fully capable of pitching shutouts. They haven’t been laying down for the Cubs and Mets.

[TURBO]

The Reds series will not look much like this Pirates series. The Reds will put up a fight, and their pitching can easily shut us down if they are on.

 

Those who take the Reds series lightly might be disappointed, or, they might not be, we shall see.

What are the implications if today's Cubs/Cards game is rained out? I mean is it possible that the Cubs could remain in standings limbo 'till the game is made up end of next week? Smoke's coming out of my ears trying to figure this out.

I saw someplace it would be made up on the 30th if rained out...
