jus anutha jung man

[jerichoholicninja]

Is the CF camera on the 1B side of the pitcher? The angle just looks weird.

[BrewersAA]

He has big league stuff! The sinker baller might just benefit from a big league infield. Good start, let's see where it goes!

[torts]

Great first inning!

 

Im 99% its on the 1b side

 

Thank you, fan!!

[torts]

Man that breaking ball for strike 2 on cutch was pretty sick

[MrTPlush]

It looks like it is on the 1st base side, but I don't see where it possibly could be over there. I see bleachers and a bush.

[torts]

Its on top of the green wall if im not mistaken

[jerichoholicninja]

So Braun gets plunked now right?

[brewcrewdue80]

There had to be a big betting line on this game. I'd certainly have taken the Pirates if I did that sort of stuff.

[MrTPlush]

Not very impressed so far. Only thing he can even get close to the plate consistently is his fastball.

[DHonks]

Didn't expect to see Jungmann consistently hitting 93-4. Not throwing the curve for strikes, but keeping it unhittable. Nice changeup for K in the 4th.

 

I have to believe the HBP was on purpose given the antics on the first two pitches (a strike and barely a ball)

That would be really stupid for a guy in his first big league game to intentionally put runners on first and second with 1 out.

[pacopete4]

Haven't see the whole game but he's doing pretty well according to his stat line. This team needs Jungmann to be the next guy. Peralta-Nelson-Jungmann-Fiers and with Crazy and Wagner around this team could have very cheap starting pitching going forward.

[BrewersAA]

Agreed!

[DHonks]

jericho...that's easy for us fans to say. But given the dancing around in the box that the stupid catcher was doing on a strike AND given that he's been the NL's hottest hitter for the last 6 weeks, a HBP is more efficient than a walk. Walking him would have been considered solid strategy with 1st base open and weak hitters Mercer and Liriano to follow.

[torts]

Man that inside curve is just haaanging in the middle of the strike box

[torts]

Problem is cutch can turn fast on inside pitches, and roped that same curve for a double in the corner

[jjkoestler]

Jungmann drinking game... Drink each time they show his family.

[brewmann04]

Wow first Cravy and not Jungmann starting their first game on the road looks strong kinda wish they would have done the same with Wagner . But Both Cravy and Jungmann have both deserve another call up.

[MrTPlush]

Jungmann looks like another middle of the rotation option for the future. Can help keep our starting rotation cheap in the future if he can put it together.

 

Though I am not convinced with how good his stuff is and with that kind of height control has always been an issue. He will need to polish his command since he doesn't have the stuff to get away with a lot of bad pitches.

[BrewersAA]

I feel like that was set up cause the first one,which was a strike, was called a ball, so when they went back there he had to get more of the plate. The first 2 had cutch turning and ducking and they were strikes (although one was called a ball).

[splitterpfj]

The kid comes up and allows one run through seven innings...how many times have the Brewers' veteran pitchers done that this season? Heck, how many times have they gotten through seven?

[torts]

Having mlb / all star caliber defense has helped jungmann. Segura, gomez, rami all have had plays this game that probably saved a couple runs.

[MrTPlush]

Would like to see Jungmann be the guy to take Lohse's spot when they trade/release him.
