This team needs to clean some things up. Our division lead is not insurmountable, and the Reds have a AAA schedule the rest of the way.

I have it on good authority that the Reds aren't very good and any suggestion otherwise is fodder for sarcasm.

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

Amazing how one mistake can immediately cause the wheels to fall off. Hope this isn't the "what if" game of the season.

As in, the Brewers blow a seven game lead with under two months to go? Yeah, if that happens, losing a game to the best team in baseball isn’t going to be anywhere near the top of my list of concerns, no matter how brutal it was.

The Giants being the best team in baseball, which is debatable, is irrelevant. It was a sure win and Avi blew it.

I can only hope that EVERY IGT for a game the Brewers lose the rest of the year contains a flurry of posts about how we're destined to blow this lead and how the Reds are a better team...

 

 

At least it’s different than whining about ball and strike calls for ten pages every night

Fine, call them whatever you want. But I won’t even lose sleep over the game they dropped to the Pirates this week. It’s baseball. And if the Brewers collapse (and as an aside, are we really this wounded in our psyches that we have to fixate on this possibility?) I guarantee you there will be worse moments than this down the stretch.

To be clear I am not saying the Reds are better. I think we are. Just saying that a 6 game lead with 2 months to play is really not huge and schedule matters.

Others did. Hence, flurry of posts.

Literally no one said this.
