2018-06-27: Royals (Duffy) at Brewers (Suter) 1:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-4]

[MoreTrife]

damnn. that stinks. can't split with royals at home. gotta sweep.

[trwi7]

Hader has been pretty hittable the last couple of weeks.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Why are we always burned by garbage hitters?

[MoreTrife]

Haderade is drying up

[FVBrewerFan]

Half the farm? Sure. Yet, a trio of top prospects for 2 and a half years of deGrom is awake.

 

If that trio involves either Peralta or Hiura, I'm still sound asleep.

[stoutdude04]

Curious that we didnt leave Jeffress in...

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Even with a loss today (far from given), that is 3 of 4 on the year. Hard to ask a team to sweep 4 games against anyone, especially with how banged up this Crew was yesterday and today.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

And the double switch burns us. If Broxton is in center, he makes that a close play on the sac fly. Not Yelich's noodle arm, though.

[TURBO]

Why would Yost pinch hit a lefty vs Hader?

 

I was hoping to get "Yosted" but it was not meant to be.

[KeithStone53151]

It looks like Suter had a terrible start, and that's entirely not the case.

[bucks2281]

This is on Counsell. He had no business keeping Suter out there after the walk

[kybrewerfan]

That move by Counsell didn't work out too well

[TURBO]

This is on Counsell. He had no business keeping Suter out there after the walk

 

agreed.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This is on an offense that is wildly inconsistent, not Counsell, again. We've had at least three games where Jesus Aguilar is the only run producer. Counsell makes one decision at a pivotal moment that doesn't work out, which is more memorable than the bad offense we've come to expect.

 

Not sure taking Suter out would have mattered the way Hader is throwing anyway.

[jerichoholicninja]

Roof operators know this offense. Closing up shop on this game.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well, holy crap Hader. Now this is on you.

[markedman5]

Hader not as dominant lately.....not missing bats

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well, now to see if this offense has any life in it.

The offense is bad but Counsell needs to pull his starter when it’s obvious that he’s lost it.

[KeithStone53151]

Arcia getting on base could really help our cause. I hope he swings at the first pitch. Hopefully get a hit and rattle the SP a bit. And then we have our big bats due up.

In Counsell's defense, Suter went from dominating to throw batting practice in like three seconds. Just a frustrating game all around today.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Ugly inning. Unsure about the pitching management by Counsell at times. Once Suter reached six innings in a close game, the bullpen should have been warming. Probably should've been a quicker hook. Don't really get the move from Jeffress to Hader. Regardless of how it turned out, I don't quite get the rationale. It isn't like Jeffress can't get outs in those type of jams.

[brewmann04]

This why you might see Burnes piggyback with Sutter down the road

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well Miller ... Arcia coulda done that.
