2017-04-04: Rockies (Anderson) at Brewers (Davies) 6:40 CDT [Brewers lose, 6-5]

[pacopete4]

Braun with another nice defensive play. Please never leave. We don't have many good players let alone great ones.

[yfinn6]

These people who do all the whoo'ing really suck.

[yfinn6]

Nice AB, Shaw.

[Ennder]

April is the least predictive month of the season. Yeah the team is showing some warts but it is hard to really make any concrete judgments from games this early. The pitching was never going to be good. We were always going to K a lot but maybe not this much. Villar's defense is a concern but that is why you build his value and trade him rather than extend him. Bullpens always take a bit to sort themselves out.

 

I'm encouraged by Shaw for sure.

[trwi7]

I swear Brian calls Pina Pena just to piss me off at this point.

[FVBrewerFan]

Late to the party. Two catchers on base and Aguilar out of the game? Did they ph one rh for another?

[Ennder]

I believe Aguilar left in a double switch earlier in the game. Shaw moved to 1B and Perez took over at 3B.

Double switch maybe? I got to the TV screen late too.

At the game yesterday kids were booing Braun, I don't get it. He's the best player on the team, one of the all-time franchise greats and he honestly didn't do anything that anyone else doesn't do. This has happened at multiple games I went to last year too.

[pacopete4]

Perez came in for Aguilar for the Marinez pitching change.

 

Pina just pinch hit for the pitcher in front of Bandy.

[FVBrewerFan]

Wow early for double switch, what the 4th inning? So pitchers spot is 6 now, got it....thanks.

Probably the same kids who are woo'ing. Idiots.

[Ennder]

Pretty sure it was in the 5th inning that they did the double switch. They wanted the RP to get 2 innings since the starter left so early both games and I'm guessing Millone is going to start a game to bridge to Garza coming off of the DL.

[FVBrewerFan]

Yea, have a feeling Ill get used to how games are managed when starter goes 3 or 4 innings.

I'm amazed that righties don't just tee off on Suter.

Yes, Davies was pulled in the top of the 5th and they did the switch then.

[adambr2]

Send Broxton right away?

[FVBrewerFan]

Curious that in all this carnage, Jungmann hasnt pitched yet this series?

[trwi7]

I'm amazed that righties don't just tee off on Suter.

 

It might actually be to his benefit that he throws 85-87. Hitters are used to seeing 92-95 so when you take 7-10 mph off of that, it's tough to adjust. That's why he's best suited for relief.

[trwi7]

Games have been close. I don't think Counsell has any trust in Jungmann.

Well hopefully he feels the same on Marinez now too.

[adambr2]

Brian: 'Suter has never been on anyone's prospect list.'

 

BA obviously has never met Clancy.

[Boomer5]

BA just called an 84 mph pitch from Suter a fastball. Then they both laughed.

[topper09er]

2 straight 0-2 pitches Pina wanted way up and Suter left belt high. He will not be this lucky for long
