2011-09-13 Rockies (Rogers) at Brewers (Greinke) - [Brewers win 2-1 (11) - Braun walkoff brings magic #8]

Free Taylor Green and Jerry Hairston!

P.A.T.H.E.T.I.C.!!!!

Amazing how often those two come up with RISP and continue to fail. Gee Ron, maybe you should give other players a shot. You know, guys that don't royall suck and hit .250 or less. Granted, that was a great play by Tulo, but still. First and second, no outs for Casey and Yuni, and nobody is at all surprised that the inning ended without a run.

 

It's amazing how bad this team has been with RISP lately. At home too. Everyone in the lineup. Casey and Yuni especially but nobody in the lineup is doing anything and the HR's have just stopped coming. This offense is scary BAD right now.

Why does it seem like the Brewers have the worst interviews when they're doing bad? It makes watching infuriating.

Edit: and lately everyone 6, 7, 8 have been doing dreadful. Lucroy has below a .150 average in the past 15 games, Jerry Hariston is below .200 with RISP with the Brewers, Casey is... well Casey, and Yuni is... well Yuni. I guess the one positive is that Yuni lead the team in RBIs over the last series? But all-around the entire offense can't hit with RISP lately.

Our local media has not put the heat on RR enough for playing those two seemingly everyday. Keep putting the numbers in front of RR and ask how he can justify it. I'd love to hear his answers.

Our giant black hole continues to produce. This is getting hard to watch...

[Bernman23]

I am so sick of mcgehee and yuni when can Green and JHJ just replace those 2 for 1 game. Just 1. And see what happens.

But not against a former Cy Young winner or current candidate so he can say it was attempted but failed. Green found a seat on the bench tonight mostly on the basis of performances against those types of pitchers. Give him a shot at a 6+ ERA starter and I bet we wouldn't be getting goose-egged tonight.

I know this won't happen but I'd love to see Fiers come in for the 6th and maybe the 7th if he pitches well.

Can Make You Bad

This umpire has some LATE strikeout calls. Makes me nervous on offense on a close pitch.

Edit: Pirates have two on, no outs.

[BREWCREW5]

I have to agree and freely admit that I dont yell at the TV or radio as much as I have with watching/hearing McGehee and Yuni bat lately knowing exactly what is going to happen. How does he justify it with Hairston and Green sitting on the bench? This is beyond crazy.

[jjkoestler]

Pit is making it interesting. Down 6-4 in the 9th. Runners on 1st & 2nd. No outs.

 

Edit: STL wins

Sorry but that was an awful attempt at humor.

Obviously, I've seldom posted since registering a few years ago, but am here lurking every night. Love reading the GDT's, etc, and think this is the finest collection of Brewers opinions anywhere on the net.

 

I just felt compelled by Ron Roenicke's ineptitude to post.

 

He's a terrible, terrible, robotic, strictly by-the-book, not by feel or instinct, manager. He is killing this team, when it could use a spark from it's skipper. He is managing 'not to lose' instead of managing to win. He makes decisions on a flow chart, not by any semblance of experience or intuition. Just awful.

 

Please don't construe this post as a mindless, pile on. That's not my style.

[brwrsfan]

Come on Pitt, someone that sucks pretend your wearing a Cardinals uniform and hit a three run bomb!

[Raw Biz]

Well it looks like that ledge might be closer.

Veteran managers have been questioned for much less.

Ya kind of but I chuckled so I posted it ... Now if only FSN could create a great intro for them they could be like the dynamic duo except their intro would be can make you bad

[a3uge]

I take it Casey's starting because he wants Green to come in late for Weeks. I doubt well see Craig come in tonight. Could be wrong.

[brewmann04]

well it looks like tonight we have to do our own work to get the Magic # down as the Pirates down 6-4 looks like we can't back in.

Except Green could start at 3B and move to 2B when Weeks comes out.

[Glennron]

I've learned to pause the game whenever Betancourt comes up to bat, wait a couple minutes, then hit "live." If something good happens, I'll go back and watch, but in the (very realistic) chance that he makes an out, I figure I'll save my blood pressure level by not physically watching his at bat. I recommend it.

[moofnelson]

Now they don't know how to run the bases properly.

[Raw Biz]

When is that ever called? This ump has been awful tonight (even if technically that's a correct call).
