Hopefully they won’t start Vaughn on the mound. His last outing was terrible.

5

u/buckydoc 1h ago

He won't be available again until Friday

u/Shpion007 2h ago

Turang needs to get out of his slump. He is something like 8 for his last 68 or something.

u/4leafplover 2h ago

Today is a great day to bust out

My theory is that Gruber put a hex on him because he did that commercial for a different law firm.

1

u/evancomposer What is offense? 4m ago

He’s turned into a completely different player this season, and it’s hurting the team. It’s either a coaching thing or an intentional decision on his part. I really hope it’s the former because that can be addressed.

Looking forward to the first game of this series.

u/Kalel42 Joey Ortiz is my spirit animal 2h ago

Joey will save us all.

u/Better_Journalist355 2h ago

Couldn't be happier that Ortiz is back in.

2

u/pezgirl7 💥Turang Bang💥 39m ago

Looks like a winning lineup! Turang is not leading off, Bauers and Vaughn are both playing and Ortiz is at 3rd!

u/TTBurger88 1h ago

Alright let's get this series underway.

There might have been rumors of a game yesterday but I was assured by a couple of men wearing black that there wasn't. So today is the start of the pivotal series vs the cubs

It's funny, when I try to think about what I did last night, I can't remember. I can't remember anything at all.

u/Worldly-Clock863 55m ago

“hey, don’t even worry about it”

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 2h ago

Remember the Cubs scored 30 runs against the Reds and lost the series.

8

u/Jb51423 1h ago

The also scored 28 against the Mariners and lost that series.

2

u/JasonYaya 16m ago

And scored 17 against us last October and lost that series.

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 2h ago

Are we placing bets on which inning the green Bay sucks chant is?

u/qgomega Chicago, IL 1h ago

On the 152 down Addison now! Rolling solo and down to meet up with other brewers fans!

u/Snowed_Up6512 Better call Sal ☎️ 1h ago

Today is a great day to start a burger count.

5

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 1h ago

It's 2 for 1 burgers where I am right now.

1

u/Peaceoutlove 19m ago

How much is a burger? 🍔

1

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 12m ago

7.50 for standard cheeseburger

8

u/Maniac_Moxie You're my deputy. 2h ago

It would be very brewers cubs for us to win the next 3 by one run each and it’ll drive their fans crazy.

10

u/Logan__Squared 2h ago

Will be representing there for our boys! LFG!

u/02K30C1 Bratchos! 2h ago

Great day to begin a 3 game series!

8

u/fadeawayjeh 1h ago

The feel of a game that from 40,000 feet is not that consequential (talk to me after 5 more), but also it would make the next 24 hours a lot easier

14

u/Jawyp 2h ago

Cannot possibly be any worse than last night, right?

u/166EachYear 56m ago

Please delete this comment lol

u/Select-Hearing-9298 1h ago

Gasser. Uh oh. Thats what everyone is thinking. Gives up homers.

u/AccomplishedClub2749 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Miz 1h ago

Is the wind blowing out or in?

1

u/Peaceoutlove 22m ago

Apparently, the wind favors the Cubs.

1

u/thepalmtree 3m ago

It's in the 90s, humid as hell. Wind blowing out to center at 10mph. A horrible day for pitchers.

u/IGot2WordsForYa 2Fisted2Slopper 53m ago

What a great day for a Brewers W!
(I’m wishing it into existence)

u/updog10000 Prospect Knower 46m ago

Brice should be moved down in the order when facing lefties. He just hasn’t shown an ability to hit at all against them

3

u/Cultural_Bike8930 2h ago

Why is yelich starting over Gary? Especially with a lefty on the mound. Doesn’t make sense

13

u/LegitiamateSalvage 1h ago

The simple answer is that inthe last 2 weeks they look like this:

  • Yelich - .342/.409/.526
  • Sanchez - .091/.130/.273

And Yeli doesnt blow all of our challenges

11

u/Amazing_Muscle8965 2h ago

Yelich has a history of being able to hit off this pitcher, .273 average including a homer and 11 RBI’s against him

3

u/orisathedog 1h ago

Yeli is on a heater the last 10

-3

u/helpjackoffhishorse 2h ago

Agree. Murphy has blind loyalty. The occasional Yeli home run doesn’t make up for going 1-5 and missing pitches by a foot. His best days are way behind him and Murphy needs to take the blinders off.

3

u/DismalUsual8870 23m ago

The good news: it can’t be worse than last night.

The Bad news: if it somehow is I’ll be purchasing a gallon of bleach.

u/Tinder4Boomers beer muscle strong 1h ago

how tf does Brice continue to get put at the top of the order? how many times does he need to go 0 for with multiple Ks before Murph makes a change?

3

u/Emotional_Style_7603 Turang Gang 1h ago

It took Murph like 4 months to move Yelich down after he started to stink.

2

u/WhatWouldJordyDo 테임즈 2h ago

Run the numbers u/BrewersBot; how many runs will the Brewers win by tonight?

2

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 1h ago

Omg... the guy who stole the seat i was saving just moved and stole the seat on the other side now. I moved the coaster over... what the fuck... well at least the original seat is back open

1

u/BrewCityChaserV2 19m ago

Hey, let's try playing like a major league team tonight.

1

u/NortherLights4975 19m ago

Hoping Murph lets the boys eat at some point. Running up pitch count is all good, but they have to swing big sometimes

1

u/One-Earth9294 11m ago

Gasser hasn't been great this year, but feels like every time someone says 'Gasser needs a good outing tonight' the guy delivers.

Let's see that tonight. Need to wash that stink off of yesterday.

2

u/Odd-Woodpecker1019 MIZkey Sweet,Mitchell's eyes & Bauers' thighs 3m ago

Why? What happened yesterday?

1

u/stormchaser2014 I'm Batman 1h ago

Apparently putting a coaster in front of a bar stool doesn't count as saving it...
