Top of the order needs to pull heads out of asses. Against Kershaw, that likely won’t be easy. Too bad.

Stayed up late for the L, will likely only catch the back 2 or 3 innings. Please lord baseball let us get a W tomorrow.

I wont write us off but it's gunna take a lot of character from the team to not head back home down 3-2. Desperately need Cain and Yelich to get going.

Sit Braun. Start Santana.

Brewers are taking Gio off the NLCS Roster and replacing him with another pitcher. Anderson? Davies?

Adds some depth for the rest of the series.

Yeah: Sit Braun?!? He’s the one guy consistently getting hits right now. You hope Yeli, Cain, and Aguilar rise up to the moment and get their collective heads out of their asses. Worst possible time for them to absolutely revert to middle-of-the-road players. We need their All Star form.

Also, with Gio’s injury can we go back and never trade for Schoop now?

You are asking Braun to play a position he has never played before? :banghead:

We need are top 2 hitters to get on base today and score some runs.

Yeah it's got to be one of those two. Probably comes down to which one is more ready.

They are going to need Miley and woodruff to handle most of todays game. If either guy happens to get shelled and the game is screwed I'd make cedeno go several innings of mop up.

Only bright side is the dodgers pen isn't exactly fresh either.

I really need a day or seven off from this ****. I can’t handle the anxiety of every pitch.

Go Brewers!1

Cain and Yellich can show up anytime now.

We better win this. Could easily have swept these guys. The more we play the Dodgers, the more I hate them.

Yeah a couple plays go their way and they could have swept but with the way the top of the brewers order has hit they are lucky not to be down 3-1 or swept themselves.

There will always be what-if's but if we lose this one, game 6 will be hard to watch.

I don't watch much AL East ball so never realized that machado was suck a **** boy of a player. Dude is so unlikeable on several levels.
