Schwellenbach Lager and Schwellenbach Dark are both available in your local market's refrigerated section.







Despite the sweep last week, this team is still five games under .500 and just lost two of three to the Marlins.

Let's not overthink this here.

[Edgy MD]

The Braves are going with the same lineup that backed Schwelly the last time we saw them, except, Eli White has been dropped from second to eighth in the order.



For the Mets, Luís Torrens replaces the demoted Francisco Álvarez and Bretty Baty bumps aside Ronny Mauricio.

[kcmets]

My lineup wasn't workin' for ya?

[ashie62]

I thought Vientos might turn up today



Paul Blackburn is fully stretched out. There's not much room for error as Schwettyballs is pretty good

[MFS62]

The new definition of "too much information" is showing whether a pitcher bats righty or lefty. But baseballreference.com sez Paul bats righty.





Later

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I expeceted to see Janky get a start.

[kcmets]

WPIX, aka CW11, game this evening.

[Centerfield]

I hate going into a game knowing that it's a stretch to get a competently pitched game.



More confident they will hit Schwellenbach

[Centerfield]

And so it begins.

[ashie62]

Really nice run saving play by McNuts

[kcmets]

Baseball funner when the other team brain farts on the bases.

[ashie62]

Blackburn shaky, defense solid

[Centerfield]

Blackburn gives up the lead. Shocker.

[ashie62]

Very nice comeback by redbeard

[Centerfield]

Wow this offense is pathetic. 6 pitches.

[ashie62]

Schwellyballs on cruise control, already

[metirish]

Jesus, that's sone mustard from Acuña

[Frayed Knot]

Let's put the leadoff guy on as often as possible and see how that works out in the long run.

[Lefty Specialist]

So I'm thinking that Blackburn is probably not the answer to this team's problems.

[ashie62]

This is going south in a hurry

[ashie62]

This is going to be a long drag on the bullpen tonight



Euch

[Centerfield]

Blackburn is the most non-competitive pitcher I've seen pitch for us in a while.



It surprised me we traded for him. It surprised me we tendered him a contract. And it depresses me he keeps pitching.

[metirish]

Gare scraping the barrel banging on about bad luck

[Cowtipper]

Maybe the good Mets were just an illusion.

[Centerfield]

What an awful offense
