Nationals vs Brewers - NL WILD CARD

[Elvir Ovcina]

Orlando Arcia sounds like the Walmart-brand version of Robert Acuna.

Who is himself the Chinese knockoff of Ronald Acuna.

At least this game gives me the excuse to mow down as many bratwursts as I can like Voodoo Magic to take down Milwaukee.

[UMDNats]

Ronald Acuna just wishes he could go by Bobby Acuna, which is a WAY better name.

Don't sleep on these Brewers. They kept winning after losing their (and possibly the N.L. MVP) for the season.

I don't think they are as good as our Nats, just saying.

[tenken627]

Try to picture the players on the Brewers roster in your brain. Trust me, you can't do it. You can probably picture Braun, Cain and Hader but the rest of the guys are just the default face from a video game create-a-character.

Keston Hiura. Even I could pick him out of a lineup. And he's pretty good too.

I have legitimately never seen or heard that name until like 10 AM this morning. Couldn't even tell you what position he plays. I blame Manfred.

He's the asian dude

I sure couldn't name a pitcher outside of Gio and Hader.   Hader blew a big game Saturday that could have give them a tie for the division.   The team themselves kind of folded when winning the division became a reality.

I like our chances, but man, you play this same game 10 times, we probably win 6 or 7 of them.   It's kind of left to baseball gods if is this is one of the 7 or one of the 3.

He was a very high draft pick and hit over .300 with 19 homers in a half-season as a rookie this year.  Not bad for a 2B.

On my lunch break I saw the Secret Service stopping and questioning some Brewers fans who had gotten too close to what I think was the Vice President's motorcade.

Nah, he just needed to slide in the version that provides pronunciation guides for such challenging names as "Trent Grisham."

And not for Yasmani Grandal...

[Scrapple]

Moustakas is famous in Kansas City which is like being the starting QB at your town's high school.

Moustakas has a Championship ring on his finger and 8 homers in the last 30 games helping his club get to this game. Show the man some respect, he just might be our third baseman next year. 

Let’s go Naaaaaaaaats!!!

Let's blast these Mofos out of the water.

I heard this second hand, so take it for what it's worth -- my coworker said that Grant (and Danny) said that Rendon is "under the weather".  I'm starting to hate that expression.  What exactly is wrong with him?

There was a cold bug going around the clubhouse a few days ago. I remember Robles being out from the 2nd game against the Indians I think because of it?

I also heard a rumor that MLB is going back to the older "unjuiced" baseballs for the postseason.
