Junis gives up a 2 run HR. Inning now over Crew still leads 4-2, on to the 7th
Perkins HR 5-2, Crew still batting no outs. Inning over still 5-2
Top of 8th, bases loaded, 1 out, Perkins single scores 2, now 7-2 Crew lead, and that's it as the bottom of 8th comes up
Perguero now pitching

Only you would waste an option on a younger player for at most 4 games. Plus you would have to make a move to clear space for anybody brought up that is not on the 40 man roster. It is not as easy to just bring up a guy from AAA.
Perkins with a 2 run single. Now 7 - 2 Crew.
Pegureo strikes out the side after committing a 1 out error.
LOL I said that 15 minutes ago regarding the 7-2 score
Yeli double scores another now 8-2, now Mitchel doubles to score another making it 9-2
Bottom of 9th need 3 outs to get this win, top of Dodgers order coming up

Yah, I was adding to my post on bringing up somebody and when it posted it was below your post so I never saw that. Not trying to usurp you.
No biggie Ammo, it's all good.

Good points, ammo. And I can do a better job of watching our roster moves, injuries, etc.
Crew wins 9-2 to avoid the sweep. Now I think a day off then the Pirates come to Milwaukee?
Baseball is a funny game.
In the 1st 2 games the Brewers were out scored by a total of 5 runs. But today out score the Dodgers by 7 runs.
Dodgers had base runners in every inning that Keuchel pitched in, yet he gave up 0 runs.
After getting only 3 strike outs in the 1st 6 innings the Brewers strike out the side in both the 8th and 9th innings.

And I will be at the game on Thursday!!!!
Yelich has really turned the corner this year after showing encouraging signs last year, and I love seeing it. He’s very easy to cheer for, and seeing him playing at an MVP level again just makes me smile.
Whatever was most responsible for his struggles after the broken knee, be it that, or his back, I have to give a lot of credit to both our medical staff and Christian himself. I know from firsthand experience how painful rehabbing a knee fracture and spine injuries is. He’s to be commended for not giving up. He never had a negative word to say, even while some people were giving him a hard time for not being the MVP player he was before the injury.
He’s leading the NL in batting average, slashing .329 AVG/.407 OBP/.533 SLG/.940 OPS; that’s outstanding. That OPS is top ten in the league. And that’s not even including his going 19 of 20 on stolen base attempts.
How is it that Brice Turang, with 3.9 WAR, which is 4th-best in the National League, is not an All Star?

The Brewers are 12-11 in the games he's missed this year and 41-27 when he played. That's the difference between being an 85 win team or a 98 win team.
I just worry his back is a ticking time bomb.

Because he plays for the Brewers. If he were a Phillie or a Dodger he would be in the ASG.
