Should sell the team to the Uihleins as people who can "seal up" World Series

I'd think Diane Hendricks would be a great choice but she'd probably close up shop in the Dominican and spots beyond

Game 2 of the double header much more disappointing for the Brewers than the first. Didn't put any strain on Taillon after the first inning and didn't play sound defensively for the first time in a long time

crap the bed today, better get the next 2....

Nah, get one and the division is over. But tomorrow is their best bet.

I should not be too upset, the hottest team in baseball as told to me last week by the local news has lost 6 of their last 7.

Too bad.  In context, he was right to be totally pissed.

Yeah, I was thinking at the time that his poor bat-throwing aim was his biggest sin.

Painful but true ... although you seem to worry far too much about what hometown cheerleader media folks say. But yes, they shoulda been ashamed of themselves for not calling the Mariners - who at the time had won 10 of 11 - only the second-hottest team in baseball.

Or else their division lead is only 5 or 7 games?

Lefties have are having a helluva year. Per The Athletic:

"In 2025, lefties have a collective 3.73 ERA. Righties? 4.30. It's the greatest gulf between them since ERA became an official stat in 1913.

Despite comprising only a quarter of the major league pitching population, left-handers account for five of the top seven qualified starters by ERA, and 11 of the top 23."

I've see enough, Brewers not winning the division.

Brewers have a 6 game lead in the NL Central; the Sox have a 7.5 game lead on the Rockies for worst team in baseball. Who do we feel better about? ;)

You can't feel good about the Sox. Those are the rules.

Congratulations on closing the division gap to 7 games.

Only giving one game back in a 5 game road series is an absolute win.

Yeah.  Brewers taking 1 would've been both teams doing what they need to do.  Brewers taking 2 puts them in a good place, but keeps the Cubs hopes alive.  Anything more than that for the Brewers and the division would've basically been done.

The Brewers are going to win the division.

But, before the series, MIL had an 8-game lead and the tie-breaker; they now have a 7-game lead without the tie-breaker.

Without the traditional Game 163, it's almost like the Brewers "gave up," two games in the 5 game road series. (I think).

They're still winning the division.

Never mind. They must have been 4-4 on the season going into Monday. There shouldn't be tie-breakers.

Getting rid of game 163 is a travesty. It won't be needed

Of course there should be. No reason to play an extra game when both teams qualify anyway.

Manfred wants to get rid of Game 7s, as well. Just whoever scored more runs in the first six games wins the piece of metal.
