2011-07-01 Brewers (Gallardo) at Twins (Liriano) - 9:10 PM CDT? [Brewers lose, 6-2]

[trwi7]

Nice job by Gallardo walking two scrubs to face the heart of the order.

[bucksman4]

Why the heck does Gallardo nibble so much around the plate to mediocre players? Frustrating.

[umphrey]

back to back walks, Gallardo having trouble with his command, no outs, Joe Mauer up who is 2-2 tonight, is there anything encouraging you guys can tell me right now?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Nice work Prince.

[jason21nl]

holy crap this team is atrocious at defense

[Oxy]

Alright guys, I guess I just have a broader definition of "attitude" than others around here. To be clear, I'd be happy with sending Casey down for awhile and giving Green a shot, but I was trying to show the possible difference between McGehee's situation and Hardy's. If I recall, Hardy was tired and wanted days off. McGehee seems willing to do whatever it takes, thus a possible longer leash. Still, he hasn't been given a longer leash than Hardy, so I don't know how this comparison ever came up in the first place. Done with that.

 

 

Prince pulls a Buckner. Ouch. Usually he is fairly sure handed on plays like that, the only positive thing that can be said about his D.

[markedman5]

wow....par for the course for this team on the road.....

[chuckcrim]

I'm so sick of watching this crap. Going to bed to ensure I'm up for my early tee time. I'll be shocked if I wake up to see a win. Another vomit inducing performance in all phases.

[bucksman4]

How many hundred million dollars do you want Prince? Get used to DHing my friend.

don't worry, mauer will hit a grounder right at someone. should be an easy DP.

[wibadgers23]

Worst. Defense. Ever.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yo is really getting screwed by his defense tonight. But to be fair, his walks have hurt him too.

[theavrock]

Defense sucked, but maybe Yo shouldn't have walked two guys to lead off the inning.

[natronek8780]

That was absolutely brutal by Prince... and there's no excuse for our defense. But Yo cannot become an elite pitcher until he learns not to walk guys so often.

[bucksman4]

This team is hot garbage on the road. Enjoy second place again...

[pebadger]

You win as a team, you lose as a team.

 

While the first part eludes them, the Brewers have the second half down pat.

[brewmann04]

It a Shame that Melvin went out to get pitching and has one of the worst defensive infield.Prince should have taken that 20 Million deal cause he not get paid to be a First baseman.

[jason21nl]

I swear guys have it in their mind that they are going to swing at a ball no matter where the pitch is. Prince let two pitches go by that he could have hit into left then swings wildly at a ball that wasn't close to the strike zone

[bucksman4]

McGehee didn't get a hit? What??

[jason21nl]

and very nice inning boys. why even bother playing these road games? just forfeit and save your arms

[brewmann04]

well gentleman i am out of here and not going to watch this team this weekend so i can enjoy this 4th of July weekend.

[trwi7]

Nice 7 pitch inning for Liriano. They should DFA this whole damn team before a road trip and call up the Sounds. Couldn't be any worse than this garbage.

They probably would but most guys don't have any minor league options left.

[chickinbrickin]

I love how disinterested the entire team looks now. Typical for these guys when they are behind in a road game.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Can we just have some major changes happen after this game please? McGehee out, Kotsay out, Green up, Saito activated, then later Gamel down and Boggs up. Also Dillard or Estrada can go, and McClendon can come back up. Play Green every day, bench Yuni, platoon Counsell and Wilson, and look to trade for a SS, power bench bat, relief pitcher, and possibly a 3B.
