2018-08-29: Brewers (Peralta) at Reds (Harvey) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 13-12 in 10 innings -- Christian Yelich hits for the CYCLE on 6-for-6 Night; Brewers overcome controversy and 4-run deficit]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

5 ERs in 4 1/3. That's another game in the oops category.

 

Peralta mixes electric outings with stinkers. That is the definition of a pitcher who isn't ready.

[mtrebs]

We'll end up releasing Schoop after this season and he'll end up pulling a Gennett against us after that.

[pacopete4]

Freddy has had a lot more than a couple oops games. He is very fortunate they have stuck with him in the rotation this long especially given his tendency for control problems.

 

Two game giving up 7 runs. One giving up 4. Otherwise 3 runs or less in the rest of his starts. “Couple” seems like the right word to me.

 

He's also had many, many more opportunities than Woodruff for some reason.

 

 

Gah I hate Scooter Gennett.

 

13 starts for Freddy. 12 for Woody plus 8 relief appearances.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I’m done wasting my time with this garbage.

 

Thankfully the Badgers and Packers start soon.

 

Thank you. Bye

[treego14]

Well, I admit I cannot blame Counsell for his bullpen management tonight. Hader getting rocked!

[MrTPlush]

It is sad, but true. This team is just not entertaining to watch. Day after day after day. This is my first year watching the Badgers weekly (starting dating a huge Badgers fan) so that should be nice.

 

I miss fun wins that weren’t huge disasters we feel lucky to win.

[Boomer5]

Is it ok to swear now? Surely even the mods must recognize this is swear worthy? Blue.

[pacopete4]

Counsell all the right moves in the first half. All the wrong moves in the second half.

[jerichoholicninja]

Turned on the game to see Scooter ***** Gennett almost take Hader out of the park and then the next guy does. Just a whole bag of suck.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

 

13 starts for Freddy. 12 for Woody plus 8 relief appearances.

 

Woodruff has been bounced back and forth over two seasons, while Freddy has been given a game every 5 days. And after tonight's stinker, their stats are going to look pretty dang similar.

[Boomer5]

Counsell all the right moves in the first half. All the wrong moves in the second half.

 

If Soria and Hader are giving up rockets what would you suggest he do?

[Bulldogboy]

Counsell had to rush Hader into the game but no excuses he didn't get it done. Counsell has done a bad job in my opinion since May but the guy is basically out of options. Stearns has left the guy out to dry.

[jerichoholicninja]

I don't care if they miss the playoffs. Just stop being an embarrassment to watch.

[brewmann04]

sorry but you guys damm him for not using his top relievers and when he does and the bomb you still blame him. i fell into the brewer trap of them being a half season team.

Doing nothing, other than Chacin, to address the starting rotation has had a domino effect.

[treego14]

Hader is probably a little rusty with the under-usage!

[tomwopat]

While we're getting things off of our chest, I'll also mention I strongly dislike this stupid bandbox of a ballpark.

[brooks_quichenick]

Think Craig made the right move there, Hader just missed his spots and the Reds 2 best hitters made him pay.

 

Still alot of game left, but man, that inning was just a huge punch to the gut.

Exactly. He isn't ready. Should be pitching in AAA.

 

 

Two game giving up 7 runs. One giving up 4. Otherwise 3 runs or less in the rest of his starts. “Couple” seems like the right word to me.

 

 

Tonight, 4 IP, 5 ER. He's had an outing of 4 IP, 1 ER, with 4 walks and 3 hits where he was very fortunate on the runs total. 3 IP 7 ER on August 10th. 6 IP 7 ER on July 25th. 3.2 IP 3 ER on July 11th.

 

He's had 5 clunkers in his last 8 outings. 2 good outings his last 8. Absolutely should not be in the rotation especially when you consider he's 22 and his control isn't refined.

[schmidtac20]

Counsell all the right moves in the first half. All the wrong moves in the second half.

 

 

Again his move was inflated tonight because his GM thought having four number 5 starters in the rotation would suffice throughout the duration of a 162 game season.

 

I don’t remember the last time he managed a game with a commanding lead from start to finish.

 

The Joey Vottless reds have scored 16 runs in 16 innings vs what is supposed to be a playoff team.

Tonight, didn’t need to go to the pen in the 5th. I’m even willing to guess Hader didn’t warm up that long. Players are the ones who need to come through but CC hasn’t put his team in a great position lately either.

[Boomer5]

Scooter is just a really really good baseball player.

[homer]

Agreed.
