I had a custom WHOLESTAFF shirsey made a few years ago. I'm wearing it today.

I had a custom WHOLESTAFF shirsey made a few years ago. I'm wearing it today.

 

What number did you use?

[3and2Fastball]

let the speculation begin as to why Brinson is starting vs a RHP and not Phillips....

 

edit: Phillips was optioned. OK. I'd rather they keep them both up and have a shorter bullpen. All of our OF's are RH hitters

[liveforoctober]

“Hey Blazek, you ever swung a bat before? No? Ok, cool. That’s Max Scherzer on the mound. I’d suggest choking up a bit. Good luck.”

[jerichoholicninja]

Blazek started his last 9 games with Colorado Springs and went at least 6 innings the last 3. Not sure why we're assuming today will be a bullpen day.

I shall set the O/U on Scherzer strikeouts at 16.

I saw something under Scherzer's name today that I wasn't sure what it was or meant. Can someone help me? So under the name it had the numbers 11 and 5 with a dash in between. It looked a lot like this: 11-5.

 

Anyone know what this means?

It'll look a lot like "11-6" tomorrow morning

It means he's not as good as Zach Davies; Zach has a "12-4" under his name!

Davies is 12-4 so that means hes better than scherzer right?

Yes!!!!

Blazek's ERA is over 2 full runs less than Scherzer’s. We got this today.

[tmwiese55]

I have a weird feeling we're going to win this game. I liked how hard they came back after that horrible inning last night to score a few runs and give it a shot. I know Scherzer was rough last game out so one would expect him to be unhittable today. But weird feeling the O is going to score today

[sauveb]

I saw the lineup and thought I had lost 48 hours somehow. It is definitely a Sunday lineup.

[stoutdude04]

It feels like the crew runs the Sunday lineup more than most.

[jerichoholicninja]

It feels like the crew runs the Sunday lineup more than most.

 

Considering Braun gets hurt every other game, quite often the regular days off for guys line up to look like a Sunday lineup.

[pacopete4]

Was just having a little fun! People act like he doesn't lose. We beat him twice a year ago. It happens. That's baseball.

 

Did a nice job in the first of seeing 18 pitches at least.

[jerichoholicninja]

The Nationals have scored 1 run against our starters this series. Not concerned about Blazek. Whoever he gives the ball to is what worries me.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Not the first inning the Brewers wanted.

[adambr2]

Well that should be enough for them.
