At what point do we start making Chuck Norris references about Suter?

 

Completely hypothetical, but if Suter doesn't get hurt in August 2018, do the Brewers beat the Dodgers? I'm being serious. Dude is a really good pitcher.

It would have definitely helped to have another solid LHP against them in that series.

Not just “at Night” anymore.

Knebel in the 9th if they still have the lead?

Arcia is so hard to watch at the plate. He still moves his back foot when he swings, I would think that alone is something that could be easily fixed, but it is always the same.

 

Right! Someone mentioned a few days ago that they don't want Urias to be another Arica. Really when you watch them, though, the only similarity is the fact that they both play SS. Urias is so much more fundamentally sound up there compared to Arica. It's obviously been a very small sample, but Urias is making a really nice impression. He's one of the few in this lineup who seem to have a discerning eye at the plate.

I would be okay with Urias hitting leadoff for the foreseeable future.

Why? CC having Narvaez go 0 for 4 in the leadoff spot has us in position to win.

Well, that counterpoint is indeed indisputable. :laughing

Oof. Extra innings not ideal. Storms moving in.

Knebel either has to find more velocity or find some movement because that Fastball is straight as a string.

 

He is a tick or two slower than he was pre TJ. Guessing that will come back by next year.
