2017-06-11: Brewers (Anderson) vs Diamondbacks (Ray) 3:10 p.m. CDT [Brinson debuts; Brewers lose, 11-1; 10 runs charged to bullpen]

My God you stink Torres.

[yfinn6]

I was seriously about to post "I don't know if it matters that this ball Herrman hit is foul. I have a feeling he's going to go deep, anyway".

 

Just like that, 4-0.

[rcc]

Well, now after giving up that 2 run homer I think Torres needs to be released from his long leash.

 

Enough is enough! He has yet to retire anyone and gives up 2 homers. A close game is now getting away from the Crew.

[SomewhereInTime]

Why on earth would you use Torres here, he is the most overworked relievet in baseball and has been struggling mightily. You have a 9 man pen, nearly anyone else is a better option.

[Matt1969]

It's hard to believe this is a first pace team (Right Now). Need to get their crap together.....AND FAST!!!!!

[pacopete4]

I just can't. How bad does it have to get before something is done? It is amazing that there will be some that defend these clowns as if other teams would want them anyways. They are flipping trash. Garbage. Some of the worst pitchers in the league. And yet, because we are the Brewers, we just accept this crap.

[pacopete4]

Stop trying to sell us on Thames stupid t-shirt. It'd make nice toilet paper right now.

[JohnBriggs12]

I wouldn't let Torres on the plane. What was he doing in a one run game anyway? Has Counsell not seen him stink up the joint most of the year?

[Matt1969]

Hopefully off day tomorrow will help.

[rcc]

Let's see what Feliz can accomplish here.

[JohnBriggs12]

Can I take back my Thames suggestion? He looks clueless up there.

[adambr2]

I wouldn't let Torres on the plane. What was he doing in a one run game anyway? Has Counsell not seen him stink up the joint most of the year?

 

I have to agree. We do have a day off tomorrow. How your team's worst reliever winds up with the most innings is pretty mind boggling to me.

[pacopete4]

From TH: Tough times for Carlos Torres. Last seven appearances: 6 IP, 16 H, 12 R, 10 ER, 4 HRs, 15.00 ERA.

 

Martin Maldonado is a better pitcher than this.

[pacopete4]

Fire the bullpen coach. I don't care if he does very little. Fire someone.

[LouisEly]

Bill Hall is a better pitcher than that.

[rcc]

Of course Feliz can't get the job done. The DBacks are having a good time with this bullpen.

[adambr2]

Starting to think that my joking suggestion that they just go with an 8 man piggyback rotation and 4 man bullpen of Knebel, Barnes, Hader and Scahill might not be a terrible idea.

[rcc]

The worst bullpen in all of MLB. For a first place club that has to be a major league record for bullpen futility.

[LouisEly]

Very small sample alert:

 

Tyler Cravy's ERA in Colorado Springs this year: 11.91 (11.1 IP)

 

His road ERA: 0.00 (14.1 IP)

 

I SO want to see Cravy in the bullpen on Tuesday with the biggest dung-eating grin on his face...

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Need more cans of kerosene down in the bullpen. Five ain't enough.

[Matt1969]

[sarcasm]Fire Uecker....He's a horrible announcer[/sarcasm]

[JohnBriggs12]

Brewers might have the 3 worst relievers in the NL in Torres, Feliz, and Drake. Hughes was on that list till a sudden turnaround in the last week.

[Sixto]

A little perspective is needed. If we started the season 15-30 no one would have blinked an eye. It was expected after trading everyone we could, including our entire bullpen two years running.

Braun has been injured more often than not and guys like Broxton have fallen off a cliff.

Don't know what's going to happen the next 20 games, but what did you guys expect ?

 

You wanted to sell, and we did that. You don't want to buy, and we probably wont. But still complain if our island of misfit toys come back down to reality ??

Check yourself

Fire the bullpen coach. I don't care if he does very little. Fire someone.

 

The bullpen coach is actually good and helped a lot of our minor league pitchers. TheCrew07 brought it up when he was hired full time as bullpen coach that it was a stupid move because he should be roving around the minors helping guys there instead of basically answering phones in the bullpen.

[rcc]

Fire the bullpen coach. Fire the pitching coach. Fire CC. No! How about Stearns either calling up someone from Colorado or getting someone out there who can pitch. The starting rotation is doing well right now and it's a shame that most nights they have to sit in the dugout while these stiffs ruin it all.

 

Now CC takes the baseball from Feliz. Peralta coming in. Now we see what he can do!
