They haven't been raking for a while now.

This is by far the worst iteration of the Ohtani Dodgers.

It’s just so hard to beat their starting pitching though. They don’t need a lot of offense. Them getting Skubal was a game changer. I don’t see Milwaukee beating them

Even more disheartening - if we somehow pull it out tonight, it will be our pen vs. Skubal in game 5.



With Yamamoto ready to pitch in relief if they need him.

I dont know. The Brewers are tough and gritty. They can put pressure on them.

We had Sale in relief on 2 days rest against the Phillies.

I don't know if he'd be willing to pitch the end of a game Friday but it's more rest than last time and that's acutully a situation where emptying the tank to beat the Dodgers makes sense.

Probably not because for as bad as they've been you can't really justify moving Ronald and Olson down in the lineup.

You also can't swap Ronald with Harris, else you'd have three straight lefties at the top of the lineup.

The only move that makes sense is swapping Harris and Baldwin, especially if the bottom of the order continues to put up decent OBP numbers.

I fully expect to win tonight

And yet I put us at about 15% chance to move on, if that tells you anything

Acuna has been nonexistent this postseason. Would be really great for him to have a big game.
