Dodgers fans wanted Bryce Harper, but the team didn’t need him
Both the Cardinals and the Brewers have played below expectations this season. The Brewers are on pace for an 83-win season, a significant dip from their 96-win campaign last season. The complimentary pieces around reigning National League MVP Christian Yelich have regressed, and the team has yet to pick up the pace since losing six of seven before the All-Star break.
If the season had ended Saturday, the Cardinals and the Phillies would have played in the one-game playoff to see which club would face the Washington Nationals, who have revived themselves after a wretched start to the season.
ByMcCullough Andy: Yelich is worthy of compliments but I'd go with complementary here. Go Giants!
ByMcCullough Clearly, you don’t like the Giants. I wouldn’t either if I liked the bums and all they did was continually choke, year after year. ButtHurtDoyerFan
