2014-04-30 Brewers (Garza) at Cardinals (Miller), 12:45 PM CDT [Day Baseball! #WCWW; Brewers lose, 9-3]

[Fear The Chorizo]

right about now's where having an extra arm like Figaro or Wooten in the pen sure would beat Ryan Braun's oblique sitting on the bench. I'm normally not a proponent of carrying 13 pitchers, but that's better than carrying 12 and a bench full of wounded position players.

[RobDeer 45]

STRESSFUL! Ya 70 pitches is not ideal. Can Herrera pitch too?

[stalton]

I see what Garza did there. We took the lead too early

[pacopete4]

Wish we had Nelson as the #5 and Abreu at 1B. Garza might just suck. Hate watching him pitch.

[PrinceFielderx1]

This game isn't even close to being over guys.

 

Yeah, we know.

 

I don't know if you're serious or trolling with this whole act, but it has gotten old.

 

It's not an act at all. Posters are generally very quick to say it's over prematurely when they don't understand that we have a team with pitching that can hold the score till our offense catches up. Someones got to stay positive and realistic. Nothing wrong with what I said at all.

Aside from the fact that after yesterday, NOBODY is saying "it's over" with any sincerity after going down by one run in the 4th.

[PrinceFielderx1]

Just reassuring and preventing that from actually happening dlk9s. Anotherwords making sure.

[FVBrewerFan]

Wang will almost certainly get an inning or two. I imagine Thorny and Rodrigy are out, he probably doesn't want to use Hendy or Smithy either.

I Hate Trolls! (this is what I thought of)

Like using the "y" key huh? Why not Wangy too?

[stalton]

Have we had a SP not go 6 innings yet?

Nice use of Ronny's names! Haha. Except you forgot, it's Wangy.

Rob,

 

I hate trolls also. There are usually so negative and not really fans of the team, and a veteran Brewers board poster and as positive as I am.

There's positivity, and then there's "I love lamp" posts.

Isnt this ironic? You were the one saying we had no shot to beat St. Louis because their pitchers are the best and always pitch us outside.

List all the positive things I've said about this team over the months, I'll wait a few months till you find them all, because there's so many you can't count.

[DocLuna7]

Wang it is! Everybody Wang Chung tonight.

[PrinceFielderx1]

The Cards are screwing up. Way too many pitching over the plate, and too many to call it a mistake pitch. The Brewers destroy pitching like that. Gotta put it in perspective stout. The Cards aren't the same team as last year. Not by a mile. Sorry dead simmons, but it's true.

[brwrsfan]

Being positive is fine, but nobody is saying the game is over because we're down 1 run in the 4th inning. At least not without some serious sarcasm behind it.

 

Well this has to be Wang's game for awhile. On the one hand, I want Garza to be fine, but he seems to be fighting himself mentally big time, maybe a short DL stint wouldn't be the worst thing. Nelson can come up and fill in.

+1 Tremendous.

 

Ok enough of this. Let's go WANGY!

[dlk9s]

That was like a combo good/bad play by Wang there. He probably should've gone to second right away (though I can understand the instinct to want to get the lead runner), but once he saw nobody was at third, he did a really nice job of turning quickly and making a good throw.

 

Plus, he did a nice job to stab the ball in the first place.

[dlk9s]

You know, the whole Rule 5 thing seems like a really stupid concept.

[chadomac]

ohhhhhkay.... well. let's try to not have any further injuries here and limit the # of pitchers used.

[PrinceFielderx1]

Call up Nelson.

[bylo tesi me]

Alright, down 3 runs, got them just where the Brewers want them.
