2017-06-03: Dodgers (Hill) at Brewers (Garza) 3:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 10-8]

[Matt1969]

OMG!!!!! WTHeck is going on? WE SUCK ROCKS!!!

[pacopete4]

I put this on MA and Stearns. Never addressed the pen in the offseason and now we pay dearly.

[adambr2]

So yeah, maybe we can stop getting on Knebel for not being able to hold a 1 run lead. If he's in today, we don't even need to watch the 9th, it's over.

[Matt1969]

I can't do anything but laugh.

[brewcrewdue80]

Gameday lists Torres as throwing 89-91 Cut Fastballs. Every Pitch!. If thats all he has than Im lost how hes on a ML roster throwing BP

[rcc]

Feliz, Hughes and Torres need to be gone. Get someone up from Colorado Springs and be done with heartbreaking innings like this.

[jason21nl]

I can't do anything but laugh.

 

That's to the point where I'm at. It's so pathetic it's now laughable.

[Matt1969]

That was a DUMB DUMB DUMB throw by Aguilar to try and get the DP. Should have just taken the easy out at first and two down. Who knows what would have happened after that.

[rcc]

Inning is finally over. What a letdown.

[BuckyBrewer61]

This is on

 

1. Torres, obviously

2. Counsell. It's not like Torres is a closer/reliable. How you don't have someone else near ready when a crappy reliever has loaded the bases and walked a run in is inexcusable. I don't care who it was, Torres made it clear he didn't have it today, and he made that clear batter after batter while Counsell just watched.

Attanasio's job isn't to sign players. His job is to sign checks.

[MillerParkSouth]

If Knebel and Barnes aren't available Craig is pretty much screwed because everyone else in the pen kind of sucks.

[adambr2]

We will go down with a whimper.

[adambr2]

Good work making up for your stupid move in the top half of the inning, Aguilar.

[adambr2]

I want to say words I'm not allowed to say on this board.

 

So I'll just say this. Let's be honest. First place or not, this team is not a contender whatsoever. Self-reflection, we are a 1st place team only in the technical sense because the rest of the division is off to a very poor start, and we ain't finishing here.

[rcc]

The Dodgers have a real closer. The Crew do not. Game over and it's a shame.

[Pugger]

If Knebel and Barnes aren't available Craig is pretty much screwed because everyone else in the pen kind of sucks.

 

Why not have somebody - ANYBODY - up, just in case Torres bombs? How could any of the guys still out there be worse?

[adambr2]

The Dodgers have a real closer. The Crew do not. Game over and it's a shame.

 

If our 'Real closer' was actually available today, we win. If our setup man is available, we probably win. No, past the first 2, it's a wasteland.

[adambr2]

Brewer fans, June 2nd: 'Man, I can't imagine a worse loss than this.'

 

Carlos Torres, June 3rd: 'Hold my beer...'

[BuckyBrewer61]

I feel like I should be really pissed, but I'm not. It's the Brewers, why should I expect anything different?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Tossed away a game when leading 8-4 in the 8th, 8-5 in the 9th. Bullpen showed its lack of mettle today. Wouldn't mind seeing a change in the roster.

[adambr2]

Sure miss the old vent thread on nights like this.

[rcc]

The wasteland all have an ERA over 4. Something should be done about that.

 

I like Knebel, I really do. But he isn't a closer like Jansen. Of course the Dodgers are a big payroll team and can afford the best. I just think Feliz is such a bad signing because he was supposed to be the closer and he has failed.

[Matt1969]

Carlos Torres, June 3rd: 'Hold my beer...'

 

 

I am angered by the loss, but that is funny. I LOVE that expression HOLD MY BEER.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Not many teams have a closer like jansen. Hes an absolute stud. We dont know if knebel can be a top flight closer. He certainly hasnt been given enough leash to find out.
