Originally posted by shortcircuitAnd they're 4-5 against the Reds, so what? 5-5 doesn't mean that the Astros are 'spoilers', that's all I was saying. I don't think there can even be spoilers really at this point in the season. Way too many games left.
Well when you are 5-5 against the last place team, and you think that is ok, you are pretty confident.

6-6 now. It could come back to haunt the Brew crew.
Either way, I think the Crew will probably win the Wild Card, if not the division.

Originally posted by GalaxyShieldWhen you said the Brewers were in decent shape for a series split with the Cubs, I assumed you meant because Sheets and Sabbathia would win their games. Or were you assuming they would lose those games and win the last two?

Originally posted by shortcircuitYou assumes correctly, just as I'm guessing almost everyone else who looked at the series would have thought. At the very least, Sabathia should have won. He is way better than Ted Lilly. But, I'm not surprised the Brewers cracked. It's what they do.

Originally posted by shortcircuitThey won the two before, so technically we're keeping even with the Cubbies after our series with them. Not looking very impressive. Atlanta sucks 😛.
Brew Crew gets beaten and falling fast as Sheets gets soiled!!
I think Sheets' problem is that he's not used to pitching after the all star break. He's usually gone for the season by this point. 😉
