2019-04-01: Brewers (Davies) at Reds (Roark) [Brewers win, 4-3 -- Braun drives in go ahead run in 9th]

[topper09er]

Don't worry guys, I am 90% sure Arcia will have at least 1 hit in April

[TURBO]

i don’t feel like answering any more questions. I should say..... but won’t.

 

Probably for the best...

[DHonks]

Arcia is bailing out on pitches. His stride and hips are stepping to LF. He was doing that much of the 1st half of last year. In Sept and Oct he was staying squared to the plate much better

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Sitting still in 41 without a roof is absolutely miserable. After about half an hour it feels like 5.

[MrTPlush]

Arcia should honestly get as close as legally possible to home plate and not swing.

 

“Hey Arcia, go stand up there and see if they will throw you more than three pitches to get you out.”

[TURBO]

If we can see that, surely his coaches are on him about it...

 

Maybe a quicker hook this year will change his ways. Why wait for 1/3 of the season to be over to make a point with this guy?

 

As soon as we can come up with an option at SS, send him back down. Not a huge believer in Dubon, but he can't be any worse than Arcia. How close is he to healthy?

Wait for Super 2.

 

Hiura at second, Moose at short.

[ntretts]

These are some of the weakest hits I’ve ever seen...

Dubon isn't a good enough prospect to wait for Super 2. He's also already 24 so we control him through age 30 already.

And he also isn't the utter lunacy of playing Moose at SS.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow, Reds losing Hunter Greene to Tommy John surgery. That's a big blow to them.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Even though it's brought up almost every day in the game thread, I'd put the odds of the Brewers playing Moose more than an inning or two at short at somewhere around .00005%

[jjkoestler]

This may have been covered earlier, but what is the obnoxious “woo” sound coming from the stands? I had to mute the tv.

I tend to just ignore clancy's insane position player ideas.

[xisxisxis]

I wonder what's the fastest a player has gotten to -1.0 WAR at the start of a season. Arcia sits at -0.3 after 3 games... After tonight -0.4 (the GIDP countering the BB)? by the end of the week he could have already cost the brewers a win...

[pacopete4]

Alex Wilson. Welcome to the Brewers. Well done!

That's tough to do when they are dropped into so many seemingly random threads.

[wildcat83]

Cubs have 6 errors tonight

So you're telling me there's a chance

[topper09er]

OK, Yelich bomb Hader save let's go

[adambr2]

Come on Braun. Make up for that defensive miscue earlier.

[CheezWizHed]

OK, Yelich bomb Hader save let's go

Only a double? What a bum!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

OK Braun ... time to step up.

[adambr2]

Atta boy Braun!
