Re: 2018 regular season thread
good start be lester and a good game for russell and everyone else chipped in
feels like we could get a nice sustained streak of success going here at any time, and we're already doing pretty good
wonder when/if the other teams in the central will start to fall off, seems unsustainable to have four teams in one division be this good for very long

There is no need for Machado. The cost wouldn't be worth it for a minimal upgrade.

Took 2 out of 3 from the Giants after a weak short series against Cleveland. A big series against the Pirates followed by a huge June. June has 13 games against division opponents and 7 against the surging Dodgers. Throw in the Mets and Phillies and that is a tough month.

Re: 2018 regular season thread
brewers starting to get a little separation at the top, can't fall too far behind
although we're 7-1 against them so far this year, so maybe its just a matter of playing them again to catch up

It looked like the baseball I used to play and love. I think technically baseball is against the rules of baseball at this point, but it is good to see that some baseball players are still playing baseball.

Re: 2018 regular season thread
another win, this is good - getting back on track (offensively) and also burying the pirates down further in the division

Something is off with Hendricks. He has given up 11 HRs already. He is on pace to give up 34 which would be DOUBLE his previous high of 17.

I think the Rizzo slide rallied the team. They seem different since then.

ten games above 500 and only a couple behind the brewers, the division is starting to clear out now with the pirates sliding a little
