2018-08-04: Rockies (Anderson) at Brewers (Peralta) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 8-4]

[NYChez]

Oh Geez. I forgot that Albers is signed through next year.

[PinaMadness]

Good for you, CC. Don't even give him one more batter.

[TURBO]

Good for you, CC. Don't even give him one more batter.

 

blue?

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So, because Hader warmed up, does that mean he's off limits for two days? That seems to be a logical jumping off point this year.

[topper09er]

Same thing they did with Logan, he was on the ropes but CC uses him with a lead and he gets shelled

[JohnBriggs12]

Oh Geez. I forgot that Albers is signed through next year.

 

Eat his contract.

blue?

Why would anyboby think this should be in blue? That was absolutely the right decision to pull Albers.

[adambr2]

Albers had an ERA barely over 1 in early June and now it's over 6. Just incredible how bad he's gotten so quickly.

[TURBO]

Wasting Soria tonight. Thanks Matt Albers.

[Cirilloing]

How did they call that a homerun? Is the back wall behind the padding not considered the actual wall and if it clears the yellow and hits that then its gone? Weird

[cesser000]

How can that possibly be a HR? It obviously didn't leave the yard.

 

replay showed that clearly.

 

For God's sake Counsell, get Albers out of there.

 

This is exactly the kind of crap that infuriates me about our manager.

 

It's unbelievable really. Is he worried that he is going to hurt Alber's feelings.

 

cripes.

There ya go.

[BruisedCrew]

Oh God No

 

Not gonna get a more ideal time to use Albers. Clean inning here would go a long way toward making him useful again.

 

Yeah, a more ideal time is when you’re behind by 6 runs. Using him now gives the Rockies life.

[TURBO]

Good for you, CC. Don't even give him one more batter.

 

blue?

Why would anyboby think this should be in blue? That was absolutely the right decision to pull Albers.

 

Because he should have been pulled immediately after the HR, yet he stayed in for yet another batter because no one was warming up, or because CC didn't want to hurt his feelings.

It's like they didn't even care, just looked at it for 10 seconds and said whatever, close enough.

Don't know why they didn't just use Hader. He was up once already tonight and needs work.

[PinaMadness]

It can never be easy, can it?

[jason21nl]

Never easy

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Oh God No

Yeah, a more ideal time is when you’re behind by 6 runs. Using him now gives the Rockies life.

 

At this point, I think he's proven there isn't an ideal time.

 

Why oh why can't this team ever have an easy win?

[kybrewerfan]

This is starting to get more interesting that I would like

[adambr2]

Oh God No

Its still a 4 run lead at this point, if they end up blowing it it's going to be on a lot more than just Albers.

[jason21nl]

This is unreal.

[PinaMadness]

Thank God for Guerra going eight lastnight.

[Harold Hutchison]

Ugh...

[adambr2]

My God Soria. Don't walk the tying run to the plate! Cripes! Terrible!
