After being basically eliminated from the playoffs and the Pirates losing 9 straight they may have gotten a sense that the Pirates would have gone after a new manager that knows more about baseball than asking his pitchers to throw at the other team so they intentionally lost with 5 errors and now today it comes out that the Pirates plan to retain Hurdle.
While this is obviously deeply annoying, you can't help but admire them. Their best player goes down and they respond with a 9-1 run and seven game winning streak, and at this point I absolutely wouldn't bet against them winning the division outright.

Impressive as hell.
Dammit.
We have to go 2-1 and they have to go 3-0 just for them to tie us. I dont see them winning out but hell who knows.
Madden said today the Cubs are shutting down a bunch of starters for the season and knows the Brewers will be pissed but he doesn't give a shit. :-) [Reply]

If Miller just keeps the ball down we win that game, dont play 19 innings, we go into the weekend only needing 1 win and not burning Flaherty.
But, How many games did we give away waiting for Carp to get right? How many missed opportunities? etc.
At least they control their own destiny.
Oh yea new pitching always ****s us but he is shutting down several position players too.
We shall see. I just want to see a real life post season series for the first time in too many years. Postseason baseball is the shit. I dont expect to win the WS but I know Mo isn't going anywhere now so I am going to enjoy what I can instead of bitching about every little thing. [Reply]
Well, the only regulars that are actually healthy right now are Schwarber, Castellanos, and Heyward. So it's not like he would be sticking it to the Brewers by not playing Rizzo or Bryant with sprained ankles, Baez with a fractured thumb, Contreras still nursing a hamstring, though I suspect Contreras will probably play at least 1 game. The rest of the team aren't regulars.
The Cubs lost the last 2 against the Reds before getting swept by the Cardinals and now are about to get swept by the Pirates for their 9th straight loss, so if the Brewers some how pass you up for the division you fucking deserve to be in the WC. [Reply]
