Turned the game on moments before the idiotic Braun play. I am now Homer Simpson dad meme this game.

I know losing Knebel was a real blow. But, man, it’s hard to imagine a worse year for this bullpen.

That Braun play was the unofficial end to the season. Joining the done club officially.

Watcher of baseball in me: I agree, holy **** there is a lack of talent in the high minors for this team.

Statistical view: Per Fangraphs, there are roughly 15 worse bullpens in the majors than the Brewers in 2019 alone.

I only wish we could have had more people in the done club before the trade deadline.

I mean, I guess it's not my only wish. My real wish would be that we aren't a mediocre team. But here we are.

Adrian Houser is going to be a perfectly cromulent #3 starter. Don't @ me.

Well that's one way to avoid another blown save

I was thinking, perhaps they completely do away with a Closer role and instead trot out a ‘Weather Shaman’ who simply brings a blizzard or cyclone upon a stadium protecting those rare ninth inning leads.
