2019-04-29: Rockies (Freeland) at Brewers (Davies) [Brewers win, 5-1 -- Aguilar records three hits including a pair of HRs]

[TJseven7]

When Yelich comes back can we find a mysterious injury in Braun and 60-DL him so we can play Gamel.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Arcia just got that one down on the handle a little bit.

They can have Santana’s power and negative war inducing defense, glad we have the hit the ball were it’s pitched, professional hitting, always hustling Ben Gamel.

I prefer Gamel as well. I didn't think we would because I worried about our hitting vs LHP if Braun was down. I'm over it. We don't have a DH so Santana is a waste. Braun's fallen soo far down that his war is -.7 and Gamel is a nice cozy .7. Let's max defense the OF and be done with it.

[Harold Hutchison]

Jesus with TWO jacks...

[yourout]

Hell of a catch by Desmond.

[Zad Fnark]

Two stolen hits...

[DuWayne Steurer]

Wow, Desmond was fully laid out for that one. All you can do is tip your hat to the guy and move on. What a grab.

[coolhandluke121]

Let the record show that Jesus Aguilar's OPS+ after 85 plate appearances bottomed out at -1 before today. Yes, that's a negative sign. He was rocking a .368. After two jacks tonight, he's all the way up to .488, which many pitchers would be ashamed of, but good for him. Let's not assume he's off the schneid just yet though; it's a pretty big schneid.

[yourout]

I'm actually going to give the UMP some credit on that one he gave Desmond plenty of rope then he hung himself

[PinaMadness]

I don't think 4 is enough to win this one.

The Rockies never score on us. One is enough.

[folly412]

Kind of odd to flip your lid and get your manager tossed over that. At least the 3rd time tonight that pitch has been called a strike.

I’m sure it was always likely Aguilar wasn’t a hot pile of garbage....but I don’t think he will even be that good after he rebounds. The guy will get on streaks like anyone...but first half Aguilar, gone. Real Aguilar is just an average at best first baseman. Probably stretching it considering his defense and average offense at first base isn’t really impressive.

[yourout]

It's almost amazing that Davies is only at 80 pictures into the sixth considering where he was after 3

[yourout]

Almost time for the bullpen. Here's where things get interesting

[TJseven7]

Two unlucky ones there for Davies. Need Claudio to do his job here.

[MrTPlush]

Well...having an inning there Arcia. Error and then a pretty disappointing failure to not knock that down. Not saying he should have definitely knocked it down...but pretty disappointing that he couldn’t manage to stop it.

[Eye Black]

All things considered they have to feel pretty good to get out of the 6th just giving up one. Nice quick work for Claudio.

[TURBO]

Wolters bringing back that 70's porn star stache...

[phnxcrew]

Hopefully in a month we can start a “Jesus Aguilar eat crow” thread. I really want one of those again.

[yourout]

Wolters rocking quite the 70s pornstache.

 

To late someone beat me to it.

[tomwopat]

What is with the "Respect the Rhino" poster in the dugout?

[yourout]

This should be Claudio's last hitter

[pacopete4]

Is Claudio going to have 150 appearances? Feels like he pitches every night.

[82brewcrew82]

So disappointing.
