When he came up I honestly thought he’s win a batting title. Just a natural hitter. Not the same guy.

Brewers up double, single, walk, walk against Arrieta. They go up 1-0 with the bases still loaded and nobody out. They get nothing more out of it. Hiura with a killer popup with nobody out and then a strikeout from McKinney with one out. You at least have to get that guy home from 3rd with nobody out.
Scrubs bullpen implodes...waste a stellar Arrieta outing.
Fuck the Cubs.
The fact that the Brewers are 13-8 with the what were supposed to be their three best hitters starting out like this is a testament to how good the pitching has been.
Yelich, 9 games played. 1 RBI
Cain. 7 games played. 154 BA,
Hiura. 558 OPS/-0.4 WAR
Fuck Arrieta, Fuck the Cubs. Cubs suck.
This isn’t hyperbole but Woodruff and Burnes might be the best 1-2 in the league. That should scare the shit out of MLB given how playoff matchups can go.
It was great to see the team bounce back and win 2 after Fridays beat down. Wong has been a welcome jolt for the offense. Whiule it will be good to get Yelich and Cain back, how can you take McKinney out of the line up?
It’s all about the pitching. After a nightmare game on Friday they bounce back and win the next two. Obviously it helps that the wind was blowing in but hey, that’s the way it goes.
13-8 and basically the bats haven’t really warmed up yet. This also hasn’t been an easy schedule to start the season.
