2018-08-15: Brewers (Guerra) at Cubs (Hendricks) 1:20 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 8-4]

[markedman5]

Nice job by Schoop.......glad he made it......good send by Sedar....good slide by Schoop

[bigredrobbo]

Can you blame CC for not challenging? Even the uber pessimists this board has so many of have agreed that calls we should have had, we didn't get. We lose one yesterday that should have been called, and then later can't challenge a stonewaller. Snakebit.

 

You can literally see Rizzo's jersey move and change trajectory.

 

I'M sure it was out. However, New York doesn't see it like all the others, apparently, given the obvious calls they've missed recently.

Should pinch hit right now imo

 

Was thinking the same thing. Guerra doesn’t have it today. Too late now and the rally is over

[Fear The Chorizo]

there sure better be a more high leverage situation to pinch hit for the pitcher's spot than right here in this game...I would've thought pretty hard about getting a bat in to hit in that spot with a rested pen, an off day coming up, and sketchy weather in the area.

Normally I'd disagree, but we can afford to blow through the whole pen today considering we don't play again until Friday night. Also, there's a decent chance the game is cut short by rain.

Agreed.

I thought that too. Very fresh pen, day off tomorrow, and may be a shortened game today that you need to play to lead or tie before the 6th. Aguilar would have been a great option there.

[markedman5]

terrible decision by windmill eddie to challenge heyward there. Thankfully the throw was way up the line...

 

Not sure if your being factious or not but that is exactly why you send him with 2 outs. Because you will score more runs sending him there then holding him and hoping for a hit from Pina or Guerra.

[brewmann04]

Guerra should not be our starter in a wild card game

[bigredrobbo]

In an alternate universe, Sedar doesn't send Schoop, the inning ends shortly after, and Brewerfan is apoplectic.

[82brewcrew82]

And we give one right back.

Grounders getting through today

Maybe, I get that we have bad hitters coming up...but Heyward is going to cut down Schoop far more often than not. A very inaccurate throw and Schoop was still almost out.

[TJH123]

Should’ve pinch hit for him and put in Burnes or even Hader if they’re serious about winning the game.

[adambr2]

Another gem of a decision not to PH Guerra which ends up costing them twofold ...ends the rally, and leaves Guerra in for more damage.

[YelichPosse]

junior looks like crap today.

 

time for a slugfest like sunday but we end up on the correct end.

[KeithStone53151]

Shaw's range cost us at least 1 run this inning.

[shanedog19]

We have a fully stocked bullpen today, get Guerra out of there.

[brewerswinNLcentral]

might be time to bring in burnes

[bigredrobbo]

Throw two more up there, Baez will swing through one.

[jonescm128]

he clearly doesn't have it...get him out of there

[82brewcrew82]

And we give one right back.

Or both

[adambr2]

Just awful, awful game management by Counsell today.

[homer]

ground ball, ground ball, ground ball

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Pretty annoying that Hader just rots in the bullpen game after game. While Junior continues to get pounded.
