The division is not out the question right now, right?

 

It is very real if we win tomorrow. That allows a few possibilities:

 

Brewers 3-0

Cardinals 2-1

 

Brewers 2-1

Cardinals 1-2

 

Everyone is going to think we HAVE to win out...but the Cardinals could definitely go 1-2 against the Cardinals. It’s 3 games...one starter doesn’t have it and suddenly things go downhill in a ‘should be win’ real fast. I also think the Cubs have a little bit of motivation to play spoiler after last weekend. That was embarrassing for them.

Right now the Brewers must have at least a 1/4-1/3 chance of getting to a tiebreaker on Monday.

 

If the Brewers win 3/4 remaining games after tonight, the Cards would need 2/3 to avoid a tiebreak. That's not all that unlikely of a scenario.

Still a tough road but not impossible. The Cubs are going to need to help us.

The Cubs hate the Cardinals just as much as we do, and they would love nothing more than to ruin their season and kick them to the wild card.

3 out of 4? Why are you so negative?

My sister is both a Cubs & Brewers fan (she married a guy from Chicago) so she wants the Crew to knock the cards from the divisional crown.

No she isn't, you can not be both in this world, or any other world.

 

She needs to commit one way or the other, split loyalties can not, and do not work when it comes to Brewers and Cubs fandom.

 

That is one of the most confused people I have ever heard of.

Nothing is more aggravating with a comfortable lead than a pitcher who comes in and walks a couple guys.

 

Coach Cooper would be beside himself in this situation.

 

The mere threat of his ire caused this to never happen on his watch, not ever...His boys knew better.

I didn’t realize Braun decided to fly an airplane around the bags tonight. Would love to know the backstory of that.
"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.
