2017-08-10: Twins (Enns) at Brewers (Davies) 7:10 PM CDT

[NievesNoNO]

Yuck! Pretty embarrassing couple of games in front of the home crowd. Booooo

[treego14]

Nice hit for the Twins pitcher ... I wish I could smile for him, but I am in too much pain over these Brewers.

[young guns]

So if they get 3 each inning and then we get 1 it might take a while for us to get the lead

How many runs do they need to score for them to go back to 0?

[MoreTrife]

This collapse is familiar to Brewers fans ... when will this organization ever have a truly good team?

 

The problem was the first three months. Got everyone emotionally invested. This was just supposed to be another rebuild year. Then all star break came and we were up 5.5 games and the team was fun. For it to crash in that fashion is brutal. Wish we'd just suck all year so I'd just casually check on them every now and then or at least not be so emotionally invested.

[dacbrewers]

Ok lets hold them to a field goal

 

or 2

[MoreTrife]

I wish I could get drunk, rush onto the field, try to beat up some of the twins, get my ass kicked instead, then just pass out in a heap on the mound.

[Warning Track Power]

Where is the Counsell stinks as a manager thread? I am starting to feel like he is a Mike McCarthy. Great coach. Horrible in game.

[MoreTrife]

Molitor confident going to pen. "Just the Brewers, we'll be fine" hahaha

[jason21nl]

Are you kidding me?

[treego14]

P-I-N-A -------> P-A-I-N !!!

At least he was smart enough to realize that even in a 6-2 game early on, the game was potentially at stake and did something about it.

Totally agree. And it won't come back to bite twins. They'll have a reliever cover 3-4 innings likely.

Just can't get the big hit.......game after game

[pacopete4]

Pretty sure CC tried that approach with Hader. Backfired. Sometimes it just is.

[treego14]

Meanwhile, the Cardinals have just tied the Royals 3-3 in the latter half of the game after being down 3-0 AND Scooter Gennett hits his 19th homerun of the season, a grand slam, today. I'm glad we let him go for nothing so we could be make room for Villar everyday at 2nd base. Somebody who is often called a "genius" is not so. He also gave away Garrett Cooper to the Yankees who had a 4-hit game for the Yankees last night and is now hitting .364--what did we get for Cooper--oh yeah, Tyler Webb who cannot get major league hitters out and is in Triple-A.

Yep.....at some point the players on your team have to perform.....thinking a manager can just push magic buttons game after game is beyond silly.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

A combo of bad luck, bad defense, and bad ABs hurting tonight. Man. Just frustrating. At least the pressure's off a little bit, I guess. Going to try hard to just enjoy having baseball for another two months without worrying as much about the postseason.

Like the view point. I'm going to try too... unless we get up 5.5 games again.

[pacopete4]

Braun smoked another ball. Dude is locked in.

[markedman5]

Cards winning again....pirates already won.....Brewers going to finish 4th just like we all thought at the beginning of the year.

[PinaMadness]

Lepay saying Davies thrying to keep them within striking distance. Hey Matt, they need to score at least seven runs to win. It takes them three games to score that many. They're not within striking distance.

I just saw Cooper is hitter 364 while Webb was immediately sent down after not even being able to make our pen.

Yeah, that trade is looking like a disaster.

[pacopete4]

Stearns has definitely made some questionable moves at best. Hopefully we can say that around here without people jumping down others throats.

 

Cooper had no business being traded for a guy that most likely won't even be on our MLB team.

Oh, right; Gennett was let go because he had no trade value. He's having the year this season that Villar had last year. I'll agree it sucks that maybe he had something to offer and it's not with the Brewers but I doubt there's anybody in baseball that saw more in Gennett coming into this year than Villar.

 

Webb got the chance to throw all of eight innings. His AAA stats over the last two seasons are the pitching equivalent of what Cooper did this season at AAA with the bat. Way to nitpick though; the only reason why the Brewers are as close as they are now is because the not "genius" has created a pretty good roster in year two of a rebuild. I know it's really tough to comprehend.
