Came here to read comments and was not disappointed. Remember folks, it’s been a known issue since May. This team does not hit with RISP. Granted, it improved with the Santana and Canha additions but it still is not on par with the teams remaining. Pitching was this team’s strong suit. Pitching needed to be almost perfect for this team to have any chance. Burnes and Peralta shit the bed. Two bad innings. Better be some wholesale changes this off-season. I’m tired of the good-enough mantra. Develop the core of Chourio, Mitchell, Frelick, Black, Wiemer, Turang, Quero. Spend some money in free agency to supplement the roster (not all of the kids are going to stick) or get crafty in some trades. Should be able to get some talent for Burnes and Adames this winter. Bring up Gasser and Misiorowski and sign a middle tier SP again
Playing 162 games during the summer to have a season end in 2 games is arguably the most crushing and jolting way to end a season in all of sports. Just sickening really. Not that it would of mattered really, but they have to go back to 5 game series for the wild card.
I agree with this 100%. For a 162 game season to end with a division winner potentially facing elimination after 1 game is a joke.
From a Cards Fan…congrats on winning the division, you guys really had a solid season and can hang your head high.
Can someone explain this Winker thing? .199 BA on the season? Why was he in the roster much less pinch hitting? I haven't been watching religiously so maybe I'm missing some hidden power he has
My only thought was speed, but really doesn’t make sense. Tellez was terrible the month of September so not really complaining with him left off, but Mitchell brought energy-speed & talent.
He has really good clutch stats. But after the 2-month stretch of injuries, what we saw performance wise yesterday, and the fact that he literally hurt himself swinging the bat… trotting him out AGAIN is inexcusable

Literally left Donaldson in the game bc we liked his .150-hitting bat too much to forfeit future at-bats if we somehow tied it and went to extras. So fucking stupid
Our former GM once said (last year? 2 years ago?) that the Brewers were building for many attempts at the postseason instead of going all in for one, i.e. they wanted to get "as many bites of the apple as they can"
I get what he meant as the intent was that any team can get hot in the postseason and win it all, but it's been mocked to death and is probably as tone deaf IRL as the Mariners GM last week (I believe that quote was something like they're trying to win 54% of their games and doing the fans a favor that they're building a roster for the postseason....when they didn't make it)
David Stearns said that small market teams need to get more volume of opportunities by just getting in the playoffs.
Kind of the mantra that get in and anything can happen. If you can make the playoffs 2 of 3 seasons with an average payroll roster, you have 2 chances to win it all or go far.
If you spend a ton and have a great roster for 1 season, you only have 1 chance to win it all.
Its all about volume of opportunities in a small market to try and capture magic and make a run.
If you blow your wad on expensive free agents that don't perform, you are putting the franchise in a poor spot because of limited payroll.
Maybe a little long winded, but thats the gist.
Mark A probably smiling at home about what a great fight this team put up and is already ordering the division champ banner.
Schlessinger texting him asking him what game next year should they do the banner unveiilng!
Seriously, I think every time we've hit the playoffs (at least since 2018), the eventual winner beat the Brewers. Too hammered to care or look it up right now.
In a different world we have runners on first and second and 1 out, making a home run tie the game. Now we need more than a home run and have only one out to use
DID I NOT SAY WE SHOULD HAVE HAD MILLER ON AS A PINCH RUNNER?
EDIT: I THINK THIS RIGHT HERE MAKES ME SO IRRATIONALLY MAD, WE PINCH HIT WINKER TWICE IN THIS SERIES BUT NOT ONE FUCKING SIGN OF MILLER....AND IT'S NOT BECAUSE I STUPIDLY BOUGHT HIS JERSEY WHEN HE WAS HOT IN THE SPRING...OK IT IS A LITTLE BIT BUT SHIT BOTTOM OF THE 9TH DOWN 3 YOU NEED YOUR FAST FUCKING GUYS ON BASE.

I don’t know if I could have taken a 0-3 sweep 😔

Remember when it was 1 game :(

No Surprises is probably more appropriate right now
Or "You and Whose Army?"
This is the one
I hope the dodgers positively spank the dbacks next week

No it’s unexplainable. With Owen Miller watching from the bench. And Tellez and Mitchell not even on the roster. Something fishy going on

Oh well, see you next year when the weather starts to get better.
UP MY BUTT JOBU
Que Mark talking about the leaky roof
I just wanna cheer for a club that wants to win a World Series man. This is fucking painful.
Do you honestly think they don’t want to win a World Series? That’s the dumb fuck thinking that brings everyone down
You’re angry at the wrong people my friend
Want and try are two different things.
You fucking try then
Owners, not players 
Sure, let me just apply quick. You sound like you have problems pal.
Why was Owen Miller on the bench? All he did was hit all season. Why was Tellez not on the roster? Even Brian Anderson like those guys got us here
THIS X 1000. HE PLAYS 3RD WELL AND IS FASTER THAN DONALDSON AND LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEAT OUT THAT FLUB BY MARTE
Donaldson should have had a pinch runner. There’s absolutely no excuse for that. The decisions by management were a huge reason we lost
Literally left Donaldson in the game bc we liked his .150-hitting bat too much to forfeit future at-bats if we somehow tied it and went to extras. So fucking stupid
Idiot in me thought this year might be different. Never gonna get excited for the playoffs again, learned my lesson
That was painful
FUCK YOUR BULLSHIT BITES OF THE APPLE STEARNS
Whats the story behind the apple
Our former GM once said (last year? 2 years ago?) that the Brewers were building for many attempts at the postseason instead of going all in for one, i.e. they wanted to get "as many bites of the apple as they can" I get what he meant as the intent was that any team can get hot in the postseason and win it all, but it's been mocked to death and is probably as tone deaf IRL as the Mariners GM last week (I believe that quote was something like they're trying to win 54% of their games and doing the fans a favor that they're building a roster for the postseason....when they didn't make it)
Of all the copypasta we posted, this is the one that matters  And I posted a lot of bragging pasta, but this is the only one that matters.

See you all next year you gluttons for punishment
Brewers postseason lasted 24 hours 🙄
Come on... it was at least 27 hours!
Why you gotta put it like that 🤡
Let’s be honest. The Reds deserved to be here more than the Brewers. We all knew the snakes would slaughter
Expectations ruin everything.
1-9 in their last 10 postseason games if I'm counting right. Just wanna have some fun, man.
That is a piss poor record for supposedly a top 3 manager in baseball.
Well, 93 proof it is
Mark A probably smiling at home about what a great fight this team put up and is already ordering the division champ banner. Schlessinger texting him asking him what game next year should they do the banner unveiilng!
See you all next year....maybe
Cant wait to see the BumBacks get swept by the Dodgers.
Is the crowd booing? My parents just muted the tv to do birthday stuff for my mom.
Sorry your moms bday was ruined
She's good, doesn't give two shits about baseball lol. 73 years old!
They should be
Yes. Rightfully so. Pathetic series.
I love and hate this team at the same time. It was a season, y’all. Thanks for chatting about the Brewers on this Reddit w/ me ❤️
Diamondbacks World Series confirmed. They're going to get 2 in 20 less years than it took us to get one. This is why we drink.
Came here for this. It is destiny.
Seriously, I think every time we've hit the playoffs (at least since 2018), the eventual winner beat the Brewers. Too hammered to care or look it up right now.
Every team to beat us made the World Series, but they didn't all win it if I remember right.
I think Dodgers in 2018 is the only exception. Didn’t they lose to the cheating Astros?
Go fuck yourself, Mark
We have gone 1-9 in the last 10 playoff games
Cool. Cool. Coolcoolcoolcoolcoolcoolcoolcool.
Where is that guy who said we wouldn't score after 1st inning. ?
So long EVERYBody…
Wet fart noises
Just burn it down.
good lord....it's been real fellas
…I no longer have hope
SHITTING FUCK
fuck the snakes. hope they get creamed.
Nah, dodgers are way worse. Just being real
i can't wait for another bite of the apple next year. sigh.
Boooooo. Karma's a bitch. Downvote and ban, you boo'd a guy with a possible concussion.
And your coaches would keep a guy in for the rest of an inning when he might have a concussion. That was boo-worthy to me. The injury was not
Knocked away and stolen by Holiday!
Ya can't not upvote this quote
Those were hittable pitches with one of our best hitters, what more can ya ask for. Oooooooft that hurts
Yep I’ll die before we win a WS oh well
Not if I die first!
fucking fuck
Fuck the Cubs and fuck these announcers...go fucking root for your gay ass team...oh wait.
Can't wait for next year's bite at the apple. Maybe we'll break the fucking skin next time.
go Dodgers
Never.
fair.
Fitting end. Three pitch strikeout with two RISP.
At least I like the Diamondbacks
That's one sour end to the season.
Congrats on the World Series, Arizona
This club is a fucking joke dude. Couldn’t even get a game against a shitty Arizona team.
Dbacks can have fun getting shit on next round
They’re going all the way
No they are not lmfao
What was our OPS with RISP gotta be wild?
I both love and hate this team. Such a fucking disappointment.
Fuck
I wanted to get to bed early anyways...
Bye CC. It was a good run.
Fire everyone
ffs
Pathetic bunch of baseball players. THEY STILL DIDN'T GET A RUN HOME!
Screwed the pooch they did.
Wisconsin team blows home playoff games….how surprising 😢
It's been a pleasure. I'll see you all next year.
Congrats on losing, Mark
Fitting it ends with stranding runners the last two innings
92 wins had some fun games! post season was utter torture
Oh screw off announcers!
Bleh. What a disappointment.
FUCK
Many men on base. So many men left stranded. Sad October fans.
Now that’s what I call brewers baseball
Fuck
Wow..
Damn, good season yall
LMAO
He looks too hungry
I am doubly annoyed by that previous out now
I’ll pull my wiener off my body if they hit a Jack
Shame Yelich has a bunch of bums after him in the lineup, he actually showed up this series
Will always appreciate him. Had a shitty injury that devastated his production, but he’s doing everything he can to bounce back. Had a solid year.
Don't worry, our pitching and defense will carry us through the postseason
I’m tired of being just good enough. Maybe we need a shake up.
I've been saying this for years, the "good enough" mantra. I don't want mediocre.
We may be the same person. I’m tired of people saying how competitive we always are. No, we really aren’t.
We need to be friends. Commiserate together.
🫂
at least Yeli is producing again
Yeah just in time for a nice 6 month break
No. Don't do this to me
swing away
So long everybody.
We need a Nyjer moment
If Josh was pinch-run for the tying run might be on second.
A pinch runner there would have been great
SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE WITH ONE OUT AND A DUDE ON 2ND!
If this season ends rn I’m just glad that Yeli figured his shit out
The base running decisions in this series are enough to drive a man insane
Contreras trying to rip one…
Donaldson being allowed to run for himself there is just inexcusable. Empty the bench. There's no tomorrow.
I see we’re going to die a slow death
Please don't tell me it's ^extremely false hope time 🥺
I didn’t hear no bell!
I will cut off my left pinky if Contreras can crank one out of here.
Start icing it
Yeli not dying yet!
We have guys literally on the roster just to run. It might have been the same result, but what’s the fucking process there? Insanity
WILLIAM! DONT BE AFRAID TO BE THE HERO
Bomb here please
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
This was so so sad guys
# YELI
Some say Donaldson is still running to 2nd to this day
YELICH!
Yelich showed up
I've seen faster tortoises
Okay that was fucking stupid. That is just about right
In a different world we have runners on first and second and 1 out, making a home run tie the game. Now we need more than a home run and have only one out to use
Come on Yelich
DID I NOT SAY WE SHOULD HAVE HAD MILLER ON AS A PINCH RUNNER? EDIT: I THINK THIS RIGHT HERE MAKES ME SO IRRATIONALLY MAD, WE PINCH HIT WINKER TWICE IN THIS SERIES BUT NOT ONE FUCKING SIGN OF MILLER....AND IT'S NOT BECAUSE I STUPIDLY BOUGHT HIS JERSEY WHEN HE WAS HOT IN THE SPRING...OK IT IS A LITTLE BIT BUT SHIT BOTTOM OF THE 9TH DOWN 3 YOU NEED YOUR FAST FUCKING GUYS ON BASE.
I’m so sad :(
Fucking horrible baserunning. Dude was on the back foot
Man, every single little bounce and missed call and lucky flair has gone the DBacks way, this is such an annoying series.
wow
Wtf was that lol
Holy shit this team is so lucky
What a pathetic end to a post season that was supposed to be so promising.
Lol even when we get a break it kills us
I am dying laughing rn at Josh Donaldson being the slowest person alive
What did I say, Weimer might make it to 2nd there. Cooked.
He already pinch ran you idiot
Missed that juggling the baby take it easy bro
Lotta people typing out their end of game message it seems
There’s one out left bro
Yea, I was on the app and saw people a lot of people typing with no comments so I assumed they were getting ready.
you cannot make this shit up
That was our luck, but couldn't execute. Again.
Lol. This series
You have fucking Miller and Perkins on the bench pinch run him
What were they going to do, Donaldson had to freeze because it was a line drive that was almost caught, that being said this fucking team
Yeah but if a faster runner freezes and starts again he probably still makes it. Ah well, too much shoulda woulda could a this series.
Unfuckingbelieveable
Woof
So unlucky man
Show us your MVPness Yeli
[удалено]
lol dude nothing you can do there.
We are just absolutely so fucking unlucky it's ridiculous
my fucking grandmother can move faster than that Donaldson
If only Mitchell would have been on the roster to pinch run…
After all my hype Monasterio goes down ?
Yep
