2018-09-19: Reds (Harvey) at Brewers (Gonzalez) 6:40 PM CDT [Brewers win, 7-0]

[tmwiese55]

No way on albers until the 9th with more than at least a 6 run lead, maybe even more

[pacopete4]

Always fun to see Domingo run hard somewhere.

[KeithStone53151]

I don't mean to be that guy, but you probably give Soria, Jeffress, and Knebel an inning tonight no matter what right? Day off tomorrow, keep them sharp.

The guy is such a terrific athlete. All the talent in the world. I hope he comes back next year ready to rock.

 

Heck, he still has time this year for hero ball.

[tmwiese55]

So many lefties in this lineup though that hader makes sense if you're only up 4-5. Yea up several more then whoever needs work

Oh, I agree. I think you and I have had this talk before.

MVP MANNY!

Wow what an epic at bat from Pina.

[jason21nl]

That's one hell of an at bat

[LouisEly]

Wow what an epic at bat from Pina.

Yep, he got Harvey tired enough to make a mistake.

 

Seven run lead, time to exhale.

 

[sarcasm]Albers?[/sarcasm]

Well they are going to average at least 5 runs a game in this series. Could they at least score 5 runs a game instead of scoring them all in a couple games and then looking like a little league team in the others.

Meanwhile, the Cubs can score five runs for an entire series and win two of three...

[markedman5]

That is one hell of an at bat by Pina.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Got a break on the pitch up and "away," but made him pay!

 

Pina is so good on D, he would be my choice in a WC game. If he gets hot too, then all the better!

[pacopete4]

They’ll continue to let the numbers dictate the catcher. Kratz has done his job too.

 

Hell of an at bat there. That was fun!

[KeithStone53151]

Even 7 to 0, I still think we go Knebel, Soria, Jeffress.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Albers stretching out in the pen. Nice to see that he's still alive.

[markedman5]

Boy has Corey been great since his return........

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Good Corey Knebel is so fun to watch. That 98-99 mph fastball mixed with that wicked curve is dynamite.

[jerichoholicninja]

Is Anderson really talking about how important the runs scored stat is for a player? Good grief.

[FVBrewerFan]

I don't want to see Albers until the day after never. Peralta to see what he looks like out of the pen. Guerra, Williams, Barnes to stay sharp. Albers better not be on post season roster, no reason for him to pitch unless everyone else is used up. .

 

Not that big of a deal, just saying.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I'm really starting to love Guerra out of the pen. I wonder if that's his ultimate destination next year? As a middle/late 1-2 inning guy, his stuff would definitely play.

[markedman5]

Dillard is pretty good.......

[LouisEly]

Boy has Corey been great since his return........

Who also has been really good lately, also in a very small sample, is Junior Guerra. Is he a reliever, or was he tired and just needed to rest his arm a bit?

 

I think he was tired as he was pretty good up until the middle of August. Getting essentially almost two weeks off early in September (except for one out against the Cubs) seems to have helped. Maybe he's a swingman, but I'm not giving up on him yet.
