2018-09-25: Brewers (Gonzalez) at Cardinals (Gomber) 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 12-4 -- Braun 2 HRs, Yelich for MVP of NL, AL, & Universe]

I am baffled by Craig's pinch-hitting decisions tonight. First lose Santana entirely just to use Thames now this. Either you ride Woodruff for another inning there or you go with one of your better RISP hitters. Weird moves.

[TURBO]

Looked like Arcia hit it hard off the bat, but I guess I was just being a Cubs fan for a second there.

 

BA often over reacts on fly balls. I used to believe him, now I do not. lol

[HarveysWBs]

A healthy (hopefully) Nelson, Chacin, Burnes, Woodruff and Anderson/Davies. Yum-e

 

Peralta is going to have a say in the matter as well...

 

Future looks bright!

 

Yes it does. Is there any more desire to go after a Patrick Corbin in FA?

 

Corbin will probably be expensive in an otherwise shallow FA pitcher pool. My money is on making a run at a trade for Sonny Gray.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Another head scratcher here, IMO... I get he wants Arcia for defense purposes, but just bring him in for Arcia or Perez or whoever. If you're gonna lift Woodruff for a pinch hitter, at least bring in someone who might get a hit like Shaw or Granderson..

 

Yeah. You don't trust Woody for a second inning against the top of the order fine. You want Orlando to play D fine. But he doesn't have to hit.

 

I am thinkong maybe CC wants the pitcher in Perez's spot so he can pinch hit Grandy or Santana?

[Eye Black]

I don’t think walking Garcia ahead of Carpenter would be a good idea. Come on Corey.

[SRB]

Craig looking like a fool at the moment...

[82brewcrew82]

Doesn't look good to go.

[YelichPosse]

This move i don’t like. Bad feeling. Prove me wrong .....

[buckybrewer232]

I'd have gone with Woodruff another inning, even with Moose at 2nd base. Would of thought about using Jennings to start this inning too, to get through Carpenter.

[Surhoff5]

Why did he not double switch out Perez when he made the last out of the 6th. Arcia would have hit 9th anyway, but they could have left Woody in for another inning. Hopefully it doesn't bite them.

[PinaMadness]

This is what I was afraid of.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Oh boy ... c'mon Corey. Calm down.

[FVBrewerFan]

Barnes in the 8th?

[TURBO]

Sometimes, cuteness is not a good idea...

[HarveysWBs]

[young guns]

I'd rather face Colorado than Clayton Kershaw.

I saw on MLB network that Kershaw is lined up to pitch Sunday. I don't see any scenario where the Dodgers are the wild card and Kershaw doesn't pitch sunday.

[YelichPosse]

That curve was disgusting to Carpenter wow

[Bulldogboy]

3 days in a row no bueno. Would have rolled with Woody.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Cubs have used 6 pitchers tonight. Their game is in the top of the 6th. This was not a bullpen start LOL

[Polish Falcons]

Rock takes a lot of pride in disregarding the strike zone. "too close to take"

[mtrebs]

Atta boy!

[PinaMadness]

Got a break there.

[B-Train]

The 12-6 curve is looking more like 2 to 11. But got the call!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Huge K there! And Carpenter gets tossed!!! Awesome

[mtrebs]

Yes! Hit the showers Carpenter!
