As Yogi said, it’s gettin’ late early.
Am I the only one who thinks the Nats stole their “W” from Walgreens?

Lots of big brewer news. Yelich back in the line up, let's hope the rest did him some good. Tellez will DH tonight. Canha back in the line up too. But the best news is Garrett Mitchell is going to AAA to rehab. He will be able to play in the post season if all goes well. Could be a big plus for the Crew. I love Wiemer but we need more offense out of our center fielder. ESPN gives the Brewers a 64.5% chance to win.
Good stuff ammo.
Keep winning boys.
Cubs have 3 game series at Arizona. That will be tough for them. The the Pirates come to Wriggly for 3, then the Rockies are in Chicago for 3. Cubs then go to Atlanta for 3 before finishing with 3 at Milwaukee.
Good thread title too B K!!

If Wiemer doesn't completely re-invent his batting stance he'll be in Nashville next season. Instead of getting better he got worse. It's a game of adjustments and right now the league has him figured out.
Rough inning for Miley. Had 2 strikes on everyone but couldn't put them away. One ball hits the foul pole and 2 opposite field doubles just inside the RF line. Now he bounces back with a 10 pitch inning.
Fat lot of good it did to rest Yelich. Struck out 2 times so far.
After walks to Tellez and Yelich, Contreras hits a 3 run homer!!!! Not cheapie either, 456 feet. All tied 3-3.

A pinch runner gets picked off? Say it ain't so.
Williams strikes him out! Game over! Crew wins 5-3!
Blacked out cause I’m in the Nats home market (Duh North Carolina MLB, you suck) but got to listen to Ueck.
Diamondbacks leading the Cubs top of the 6th
Cubs lose 6-4. Crew now 5.5 games up in the division. Lookin good.
The Chubbies started Justin Steele againdt Brandon Pfaadt for the D-Backs.
Steele was 16-3 coming into the game, while Pfaadt was 1-8 with a 6.25 ERA.
Steele gave up three runs in the first inning and another 3-spot in the sixth thu six innings of work. Pfaadt pitched 5.1 scoreless innings.
There is no joy in Chitown.
The win was a typical Brewer win. Solid pitching and defense with just enough hitting to win. The HRs were a bit off script.
With Mitchell in rehab until the 24th it will be interesting to see the roster move if he's activated.
Last night with Nashville Mitchell went 0-4 with 3 K. He has a ways to go to be activated.
They might be just giving Mitchell some work as a confidence builder about his health with no real intention of throwing him into the playoffs. I really don't see where he would play much in MILW. He'd be the 5th outfielder and we can see how much Wiemer plays in that role.
When does Counsell move Yelich down in the lineup? He has no business batting lead off right now, and it’s clear the break didn’t change anything after last night’s performance. He’s 11 for his last 68 at bats. That’s a .162 AVG, and a slash line of .275/.250/.525.
And how does Rowdy Tellez continue to get at bats?

True. But it’s very encouraging that he’s starting to swing the bat again. He’s making remarkable progress.
Yelich back on the bench. Tellez still in as DH tho. Maybe tonight is his night. Still rather have him than Winker.
Does Burnes look sharp? 3 Ks on 11 pitches.
Great start tonight. Brewers bat around in the 1st, 3-0 Crew. No homers either.
Holy hell, and the Brewers scored 3 in the bottom of the first.
Corbin must think it’s Christmas.
5-1 Brerwers still batting in the 5th. JFC, Truang just bunted.
Burnes walks in a run and is done for the night. Peguero in for the Crew. 5-4 Brewers. Peguero gets out of Burnes's jam. Brewers up in the bottom of the sixth.
The Brewers should have 10 runs. 15 baserunners in 5 innings.
Before the season began, who thought they'd see Monosterio pinch hitting for Tellez late in a one run game?
Can he?
Can ha!

Close now!
