Warning before you look at the past pitcher versus batter results, the Dodgers have hit Chacín very well in previous outings. Bellinger is already on an otherworldly hot streak as it is, maybe not the worst day to pitch around him.

[BruisedCrew]

Chacin did pretty well against the Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLCS last year so I will hope for something like that. Pitching around Bellinger the way he has been hitting is probably not a bad idea for anyone now.

[Eye Black]

Nice to see Travis Shaw with a good 8 pitch at-bat culminating in a well hit double.

[stoutdude04]

Looking forward to being done with Bellinger.

 

Offense...defense...just playing great right now.

[rcc]

Travis getting hits with a sore hand.

[82brewcrew82]

This has all the feel of a lay down loss of the Dodgers go up a few runs early.

Looking forward to being done with Bellinger.

Well, until this Thursday at least!

[Eye Black]

All of this trouble after two outs and nobody on.

[82brewcrew82]

That's why you just go after Bellinger. If he hits it out he hits it out.

[BruisedCrew]

After getting just what they needed from Davies last night the Brewers are getting just what they don’t need from Chacin today.

[adambr2]

I would love Verdugo on this team. Or Bellinger.

This has all the feel of a lay down loss of the Dodgers go up a few runs early.

I wouldn't say lay down, but yes, this feels like a game that's already over.

[DHonks]

Wow, what a lucky placed bleeder against the shift.

[Eye Black]

Joc Peterson missed a home run by a few feet in the 1st inning, unfortunately he didn’t miss this time.

[stoutdude04]

Looking forward to being done with Bellinger.

Ha. True.

We'll have to agree to disagree on the lay down part. What the offense is doing looks like laying down to me and Chacin isn't far behind. For the record "lay down" doesn't mean not trying.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This staff is going to set a ding dongs record by the ASG.

[DHonks]

This staff is going to set a ding dongs record by the ASG.

 

That’s ok, as long as we keep winning

[BruisedCrew]

A lot of getaway day at bats for the Brewers today.

[adambr2]

Cain has made 3 outs on 2 pitches today.

[BruisedCrew]

I think we’re going to be seeing a few innings from Chase Anderson today.

 

This looks a lot like the Chacin we saw last April.

[82brewcrew82]

2+ IP and 3 walks isn't gonna get it done. Chacin clearly wants no part of Bellinger.

They're not going to with the way they've played and a negative run differential. Been very lucky so far this year to have the record they have.

 

Now they do have a lot of players who could improve and it's really early. But their current level of play so far in 2019 won't get them anywhere in the long run.

[82brewcrew82]

I know every team has games like this but I hate watching games where we have absolutely nothing in any phase of the game.
