  2. You want to do something first class for the organization??? Try paying for some decent players that aren’t past their prime or some throwaways from another team.

  5. Talking alot of bs about cubs, who are getting hurt players back. I think you are a little worried because cubs won tie breaker over you and edging up closer to division lead. Cubs 8- 2 in last 10. Tucker is back. 3 other players slumping. Watch out!!!!

  7. We are past the marathon ! This is a sprint and we need to rack up wins ! Megill is scary and I thought we had a releiver problem at the trade deadline . Gasser can't get up here quick enough! We need a lefty late in that line up besides Koenig !

  13. A comparison to this Durbin/ Seigler matchup is in game #3 playing the Mets last year. Murphy pinch hit Hoskins, who was a fan favorite(Chuck wanted Hoskins to bat every at bat). However, Jake Bauers who pinch hit for Hoskins hit the go ahead homerun late in the game.

  20. This is why cheap Attanasio shouldve gone out and got a bat to come off the bench, because in a situation like that, who do they have but Seigler or Mona ? Yuck

  22. The Brewers aren't even close to being the best team in baseball right now despite our record. We are playing a different lineup every day consisting mostly of borderline major leaguers like Seigler, Monasterio, Bauers, Lockridge, etc.

    And our relief pitching has been very, very shaky as of late. I can't remember the last time Megill cruised through an inning without putting runners on. We need Chourio back and these other guys that are banged up and we need a more consistent playoff caliber lineup soon.

  23. This series against the Dbacks is crucial. It's almost a must sweep since Arizona seems to be a team like Miami that historically play the Brewers very well, regardless of respective records

  26. I love the Brewers, but we are not a World Series team. No real run support, no shut down closer. Seigler is a place holder. Anderson needs to be traded. I would take Abner as a closer.

  27. I can see Murphy praising the other team when brewers bow out in playoffs again. That team over there has got alot of guys, alot of big money guys etc. i feel that will be what will be said when brewers flop again.

  29. oh wow you mean the team with nowhere near 110-win talent is falling off the 110 win pace? ruh roh! Maybe as much as the Cubs overperformed through early June maaaaybe just maaaaybe the Brewers arent reaaally representative of a team that should be snapping off multiple double-digit win streaks in the same year let alone a 2 month span? Im not trying to be salty, your team is really really good but you arent and never were this talented. Yall are due for some regression and deep down yall know it too😂. A whole bunch of .225 – .245 hitters with sub .800 OPS dont scare anyone.
