5/23 Gamecrap
There's no reason to go into Cincinnati and lose this series. There's no Cueto or Simon. No Votto or Bruce.
Milwaukee will be in Miami where the Marlins hit for a collective .820 OPS at home.

Re: 5/23 Gamecrap
This road series is the midway bump on this stretch of home games. They finished the 1st half 7-2.
When they started this stretch, I said I felt they needed to go 14-8 or 15-7 to feel like this team had a title run in them. 7-2 (plus a rainout) is a nice start.
Shouldn't we get Cueto? He last pitches the same day Wainwright pitched his 1-hitter. I assumed Sunday would be Wainwright v. Cueto.

Cincinnati was off yesterday, so Cueto pitches Memorial Day.
I, too, thought they needed a 15-7 run. That would be a strong stretch, but I'm going to get greedy and say they need to go 16-6. It would be great if they could sweep one of the next two series then get at least a split with the Giants.

Re: 5/23 Gamecrap
Guess I'm too used to TLR. No way he'd miss a chance to pitch his best pitcher against his biggest division rival. He'd have pushed someone back.
