Are the wheels coming off? Losing 2 out of 3 to the lowly Sox is disappointing. Starting pitching is a sore spot.

I wouldn't go that far. We may very well lose the next 2 but I wouldn't call it "wheels coming off." I'd call it "regression to expectations."

Wheels coming off after their first series loss in 7? You have high expectations my friend.

We still haven't lost back to back games since the Cubs series ended April 29.

a split would be cool.

Suter went deep against Kluber last time. I expect Junior to do the same.

Tough to hit a HR when you won't be batting in a game.

Junior will be DH tonight

or not

Cain is enjoyable to watch at the plate

We need to go get another starter.

Braun struggling so badly he tried to bunt

Where has BA been?

Yelich and Shaw!

We broke the draw!

Brewers up 1-0!

Chase is no longer an ace!

Ji-Man? Choi hits like a little-league boy!

Wonder if we'll ever learn that at best fringe players like Choi can pump up their spring training stats by coming in as replacements for starters later in games while other teams are throwing their prospects/bottom of the barrel pitchers to just fill in the remaining innings and they get to crush those pitchers which leads to huge spring training stats.

Is anyone calling him much more than a fringe player?

AL teams generally own NL teams in interleague play when the games are played in AL parks. Like you do a double take at the betting line every time it comes out.

The Brewers are actually better equipped than most teams, but it generally is because the AL team has Edwin Encarnacion or Jose Abreu at DH and the Brewers/NL team have a fringe platoon hitter that they've just called up for the week.
