    Baseball Playoffs

    Who are you rooting for? For me it’s more who I’m rooting against (Braves, Yankees, Cubs and Los Dodgers) as my Nationals sucked hind teat this year.

    I want to see the Rockies win it all. Great fans, good ball club, awesome stadium, and a very hard place to be a pitcher. If they can do it all with what they have to work with they’ll have done a deed!

    Anybody but the Brewers, although the NL Central was a frigging gauntlet this year for all the teams in it and they won it. I still hate ‘em though. Wannabe Cubs they are.

    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.

    Yeah, I included the Cubs to try and goad Barry into saying something mean about them.

    The Cubs are as irrelevant as the Cards this postseason.

    And I like the A’s too!

    People who say ‘geaux’ also say ‘teat’ to be quaint.

    They also drive Barbie Jeeps.

    Go Brewers, we got to get all we can out of the .5 year rental of Moustakas.

    In addition to him, they have five other oretty solid players in free agency at the end of the year. My bet is they’ll finally unload Ryan Braun at the end of the season too, if anybody wants to pay $50m for a mediocre left fielder who’s hurt half the season.

    Fuck the Brewers. They belong in the American League.

    Barry,

    You should make some wine with all those sour grapes.

    I have to admit, what Counsel has done with his bullpen starts these last two months is genius. His pitchers are getting rest like its a six man rotation. And his pen still sees about the same amount of work needed to stay sharp. Who says having a reliever come in and pitch a scoreless third or fourth inning is any less important than a scoreless eighth or ninth? I think its an awesome idea and I think you’ll see more teams do it in the coming years. The Brewers pitching is well rested and it shows.
    I still hate those assholes.

    Milwaukee hasn’t been relevant enough for me to be passionate about one way or another. I’d love to see former Nat Gio Gonzalez pitch a good game tonight.

    Another bullpen start and a win for Milwaukee. Counsel has given himself a huge advantage in pitching options for the rest of this series. You know, he’s of the LaRussa managing tree so creativity isn’t something he’s shy of.

    This is what makes baseball cool. Wheels within wheels.....
