hope wecan rebound ! and at least beat the CUBS ! :)
The Cubs are a very good team and will be tough to beat. If you compare the Brewers and Cubs at each position, the Cubs should be better than the Brewers.
1B- Aguilar-Rizzo , Aguilar is having a great year, Rizzo is having a great career.
2B- Villar vs. Baez
3B- Shaw vs. Bryant
SS- Saladino vs.Russell
C- Pena vs. Contreras
LF-Yelich vs. Shwarber, even
CF- Cain vs. Almora , close
RF- Thames/Braun vs.Hayward close
SP-Anderson/Guerra/Suter/Chacin/Peralta/Davies vs. Lester/Darvish/Chatwood/Kendricks/Quintanna/Montgomery
BP- Brewers vs. Cubs
With that said, the Brewers did win the most games of any National league team in the first half of the season.
Should be interesting. Staying healthy, and getting Jimmy Nelson back are two big pieces to the puzzle. I think that Nelson is gonna be lost for the season, however.
Not being defeatist, but I think the wildcard is more likely. And who cares? Make the playoffs. Anything can happen from there.
While I was excited the Brewers were in the Machado conversation, I'm glad we didn't give up the farm for his rental.

I like how you made it like a dual. I say we beat them in wrestling. Gonna be tough on the field of dreams, though. At least we have a shot.

I think it's going to come down to bonus points.

I have Jesus by decision but he could surprise everyone and win by fall. MVP candidates score big points.
LF is not even. I have Yelich by major decision.
I got Yelich by tech.
up 4-0 in the first, and then get your a** handed to ya. I just don't see this team making the playoffs anymore. I hope I'm wrong, but it don't look good.
It is just one game, but for sure a frustrating one. If they keep winning series that is the main goal. If we win every series we will win the division no doubt.
"if we win every series" Really?
The only shot we have, is the wildcard, and that looks to be slipping more and more every day.
How is Hank? (remember Hank?)

Yea we clearly have no shot at the division in which we are 2.5 games back with over 40+ to go. Lol
They had a bad game last night. It's not the end of the world. Last 10 games Cubs are 6-4 and we are 5-5. No shot to keep up with their pace. The cubs just split 2-2 with the Padres and were outscored 24-17.
Legturk the Cubs lost to THE worst team in the majors the Royals 9-0 tonight. They obviously have no shot if they lose to them right?

Its only ONE game 63, don't worry, the Cubs will win the division by 4 games, and the Brewers will miss the wildcard by 2 games, once again breaking my heart one more year. I get it, your glass is always 3/4 full, however, mine is not.

I get it to being such a negative Nancy that they have no shot with 40 games left must suck. Enjoy the ride!
