2018-08-28: Brewers (Guerra) at Reds (DeSclafani) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 9-7]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

And it's a ballgame!

[Boomer5]

Signs of life!

[adambr2]

Yelich is good.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I was so excited to watch this one tonight. What a let down. Bah, on to tomorrow for me.

 

Not so fast ...

 

Brew4U, thank you for maintaining your optimism. I know it can be rough with this team.

[markedman5]

How good is that guy......wow

[adambr2]

I expect Davies to start up here next outing. We may as well try.

 

Look at those numbers for Jared Hughes. What could have been for us.

 

Hughes was the very definition of average/replaceable last year. No one could have seen his dominance coming.

 

No one could have seen this season coming, but plenty of people wanted him back, and with good reaaon, he was solid for us last year.

Such a good trade. That's why you can't be afraid to give up top prospects in the right deal.

Except for being consistently good at not giving up runs for years now, including as a brewer last year

[buckybrewer232]

Yelich is a stud. On another note, Aguilar has seen a number of fastballs over the middle of the plate tonight and done a whole lot of nothing with them.

[MrTPlush]

Would be cool to pull this one out. Coming back doesn’t make losing any better.

[treego14]

How much you wanna' bet that CC runs the bad arms out there, anyway, because we don't have the lead yet?

[ThisIsMyCrew]

My wife asks who’s up. I say Christian Yelich. Her response, “He looks like a nice guy. He will probably hit a homer.” Well, well, well...

[phnxcrew]

Can we use good relievers now? Every game matters craig

And on cue......he starts regressing toward the mean....

[mtrebs]

The Yelich trade could very well go down as the best trade in franchise history.

I was surprised they didn't try to keep him, but it isn't like I was real broken up by the decision. He had quite a few outings last year that looked like that last inning for the Reds.

He leaves Albers in..

Seriously...one outing?

 

After this regression he still has an ERA under 2.

[OldHeidelberg]

I thought a while back after the Soria trade that swapping Hader and Peralta's roles once the innings deemed it would be a great way to boost this season and set us up for next. But with Soria's DL stint and Knebel falling off a cliff obviously Hader is needed right where he is. Still frustrating that we don't have the starters right now to go on any kind of a sustained run. These over before they start games suck, is it just me or do we never have any of these type games on our side any more?

I think he was joking, but you cannot deny the irony.

[buckybrewer232]

Another play where Shaw playing 2nd base hurts you..

Not irony

[adambr2]

Here's where the weak part of our pen gives up 3 and makes our rally moot.

I’m back!

And lead off base hit. Counsell never learns it seems.
