That’s I think three times in a row now where Megill has had some of the best stuff of the day among relievers. Still giving up hard contact but might be coming around.
Safe to say that I did not have a Brandon Lockridge-Greg Jones-Luis Matos outfield on my 2026 Brewers bingo card
😬
Jack Chesbro is not impressed
Matt Olson has played in 800 straight games and is 11th on the all time list and only needs to do 11.3 more seasons without missing a game (til he’s 43) to catch Ripken
Something cruelly ironic about Megill being here
Yeli going on the IL according to Murph
They're almost 100% not going to do it because of 40-man/service clock/option burn reasons and with Chourio coming back in 2ish weeks, but I would think long and hard about Luis Lara right now.
The outfield combo of Perkins and Matos is providing nothing and with no encouraging underlying signs.
What the fuck there is an exclusive clip of a Cannes film featuring diegetic usage of Charlier 2 you have to be kidding me
I don’t ever hear people say it but see it more commonly in non-verbal mediums (ie it is a convenient sub for the longer Wisconsin in text messages)
The Brewers started the season 11th in MLB’s power rankings and 10th in the Athletic’s. They finished last season with the best record in baseball. After a week and a half, they are third in both.
Who ever could have seen this coming? 🙄
This is what I mean. All of these are expansion era teams, three of them from the last 30ish years. The Guards first played in 1901! They’re as old as the American League!
This is cool. Cleveland is a really old franchise with a ton of history. It’s kind of amazing that a player in 2026 set a record like this.

OK, I'm now utterly obsessed with this umpire, S.M. Decker. Look at how he's listed in this box score in the Chicago Tribune that same year.

Snuck a Karl Hungus reference into an article today so naturally one of my proudest as a writer

The broadcast tells us that that, Yelich's 234th career homer, was his first ever pinch-hit home run
I was wrong! He in-betweened, but Lockridge almost managed one of the dumbest tootblans of all time.
Contreras coming up down 3 in 8th inning with bases loaded. It will either be a game-tying double or a double play. There is no in between.
There it is: three catchers in the Milwaukee lineup today. (Contreras DH, Sanchez 1B, Quero debut at C.)
Turang is 3-for-5 with two doubles and the two outs were hit 106 and 102 mph.
This might be the stupidest joke that has gotten the most consistent laughs from me in my whole life
With Quero up, this means Sanchez at 1B vs LHP, and we’ll probably have some Sanchez/Contreras at DH/Quero at C lineups
Andrew Vaughn fractured his left hamate, the Brewers officially announce. He's undergoing surgery on Monday with an expected recovery timeline of 4 to 6 weeks.
But we don’t yet know who’s hurt, huh?
Mike Trout is 4-for-5 with 2 HR and 3 BB through 1.5 games and I think it'd be awesome if he could find it for one more year
This definitely won’t come back to bite me
