The most amazing thing is how they've done this against a tough schedule. They've played only 3 games against teams that won less than 94 games last year! And none of the 94+ win teams they've played got significantly worse on paper except maybe Atlanta if you consider their injuries to starting pitchers. Sure, some of their opponents' records may not seem like much, but they've all had tough schedules as well (including having to play the Brewers). Consider some of the teams they've played:

Boston: Texas, Baltimore x 2, NYY, Milwaukee
Atlanta: Milwaukee, Washington x 2 (not overwhelming, but that's why they're 12-5)
Pitt: STL, Cincy, Milwaukee x 2
STL: Cincy x 2, Pitt, Milwaukee, Washington

Only Philly could be regarded as a team that doesn't have obvious 90-win potential. Every other team is easily on track for 85+ once their schedules balance out a little. That's impressive. I can't imagine any other team has played a schedule as tough as Milwaukee's.

The sunday lineup should be entertaining.....

Over/under of 1.5 errors. I'll take the over.

Let's get the series win.

I don't believe my eyes. That almost looks like...a decent Sunday lineup.

Yeah they haven't just been beating up on nobodies which is good.

A nice stat

Honestly once they get it going at home (even with a bit of an expected drop off on the road, this team could make some noise.

Did Cole seriously say something? What a bitch..

That would've been a homer if Gomez didn't trot and stare at it :banghead:

fight would've been averted as well

Cole is a bitch

NeedsMoreCheese · Post #16 » by **NeedsMoreCheese** » Sun Apr 20, 2014 6:15 pm

This is **** bullsh*t if that pussy Cole gets to stay in the game

coolhandluke121 · Post #17 » by **coolhandluke121** » Sun Apr 20, 2014 6:16 pm

I'm sure somebody called Gomez dumb as a rock, which is a touchy subject for him because he is. So he went wild.

Try running as soon as you hit the ball next time Carlos. And maybe don't try to take 3rd with two outs next time.

Way to get suspended. Good timing with Schafer hurt, too. Moron.

This team is so friggin' stupid.

Cole instigates a fight and gets to stay in the game, nice.

GB_Packers · Post #19 » by **GB_Packers** » Sun Apr 20, 2014 6:17 pm

Seriously Cole instigates the whole thing and then pulls the Garnett move and walks away. He stays in, needs to get a pitch high and inside.
