The Cubs are definitely committed to not peaking too early

Quote from: MU82 on September 08, 2025, 10:35:48 AMNeed y'all's Brewers to take care of the Rangers the next few days. At least win 2 of the 3, please.

Jeez ... thanks for nothing!

Brewers with terrible luck yesterday.  Robbed of a 2R HR, so many well hit balls right at a player, or hit so well they bounced off the glove of a player but caromed directly to another player. Very frustrating game.

It should not be this hard to not send dick pics to your female staffers. Send them to your male interns instead

Reversion to mean? Not saying the Brewers have been "lucky" because they obviously have been very good and deserving of their place atop the standings. But they have had a ton of improbable wins this season.

Who hasn't sent their subordinates pictures of their junk they surely meant to send to their urologist?  Technology is difficult to navigate these days.

Cyclical. BABIP was really high during the 14 game winning streak. Cooled off. Normalized a bit. Was bad yesterday. Theory, I think, is that it doesn't happen 4 times over a 7 game series, but HRs are the great equalizer.

The team has been really good at playing in a repeatable way but it doesn't mean the results will always follow.

I hear ya. The Mariners can't win if they don't hit HRs. So they could get really HR-hot in October and reach the World Series ... or their power bats could get shut down, resulting in an exit without them winning a postseason game (if they even make the playoffs).

I don't think the Brewers are quite that HR dependent, fortunately for them.

Only Cub I'll ever root for. Good for him.

Thanks for nothing x3.

Brewers are 11-14 since their 14-game winning streak ended. Happens even to the best of 'em.

Skubal leaves game in Miami after getting roughed up.  Possible oblique.

Baez had left the game earlier, having fouled a ball off of his forehead.

Nice comeback win for the Brewers.

Goofy team. Huge win to keep distance from the Phillies

#54 for Cal Raleigh.

Ties Mantle for most HR by a switch hitter. Also, Raleigh's 43rd while in the lineup as catcher, most ever.

Mariners win 9th in a row, move alone into first place.

Watching most of Mike Trout's at-bats over a 4-game series, he couldn't catch up to what are pretty routine MLB fastballs.

Kept swinging late on 94, 95, 96 mph pitches, especially anything up in the zone. They didn't even try to fool him with off-speed stuff.

A shell of what he once was.

MLB wonders why their attendance is down?  Have Roberto Clemente Day and let players wear 21 even if it's not their number.  What about Ty Cobb Day?

Ohtani has a tiny bit of talent.  I wonder what would happen if he just focused on pitching?  No-hitter through 5.
