2018-09-29: Tigers (Norris) at Brewers (Miley) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-5 -- Yelich, allegedly human, with two more HRs -- Triple Crown within reach]

Why Thames ?

 

Prove me wrong.

 

But ... seriously has CC seen the last month or so ? Lol

 

Chess match. Craig knew they would go to the lefty and preferred to burn Thames over Granderson.

Pending the outcome. I approve. Because , armchair Managment

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Domingo being Domingo.

 

Time for a real hitter to come up. C'mon Cain!

[phnxcrew]

What a terrible pinch hit AB

[PinaMadness]

Come on Cain, big knock here.

[bigredrobbo]

I'll be stunned if Thames and Santana are on the final 25.

[Bulldogboy]

The later this gets its advantage Tigers. No name dudes playing free and easy and one mistake away from disaster.

[adambr2]

Ughhhh.

[YelichPosse]

Welp what bullets do we even have in the pitching chamber

[phnxcrew]

I'm stunned Cain missed a hanging curve ball from a soft tossing lefty that literally didn't move. Stop pressing is easy to say when the division is in reach, i suppose

[adambr2]

I know he's technically a "neutral" guy today, but BA still sounded way too excited about that K for my liking.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Missing some opportunities to cash in runs. Need a shutdown 7th from the bullpen.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Me too. I think they go Granderson as the 4th OF and Broxton as the 5th OF/pinch runner. Thames has been so bad, and while Domingo has done well as a pinch hitter, but then puts together ABs like that.

[HarveysWBs]

I think I’d fire Knebel and Jeffress, on the theory that a loss here all but takes us out of divisional contention, and we’d likely be in position to rest the better bullpen options tomorrow, pending the progress of Cubs-Cards.

[Bulldogboy]

Counsell may need to give Guera a shot here at some point. I would rather see him than Williams or Barnes. He's been good out of the pen.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Jennings, Peralta, Guerra, and Lyles (and Albers, I guess) are all guys that could go. I'd guess Knebel gets the 8th if Soria makes it through the 7th.

[Eye Black]

Soria looked nasty versus Mahtook.

[SRB]

Thames has like a .400 OBP in September. He was bad in August...

[Eye Black]

Due up...

 

Yelich

Braun

Aguilar

 

 

Put some runs on the board!

[MrTPlush]

Counsell may need to give Guera a shot here at some point. I would rather see him than Williams or Barnes. He's been good out of the pen.

 

I have a feeling somewhere the next two days (if Monday is needed) a starter might see an appearance not starting. We are burning these guys badly the last two days, but who knows. Peralta probably sees time tomorrow.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Excellent job by Soria; got exactly what was needed.

 

Yelich, Braun, and Aguilar due up in a tie game late. Get it done.

[PinaMadness]

OH STOP IT!!!!

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

UNBELIEVABLE!

[SRB]

WOW

[Eye Black]

I just don’t even know what to say anymore.
