2019-07-05: Brewers (Davies) at Pirates (Brault) [Brewers win, 7-6 in 10 innings -- Bullpen blows 5-run lead in the 9th, offense answers in the 10th]

[wildcat83]

Neither Perez nor Grisham are on the 40 man. Makes a call up less likely.

[markedman5]

It's a small sample size but Gamel is opsing 854 vs lefties......why not just play him?

[adambr2]

Dubon is on the 40. He just hit his 14th HR tonight -- he has developed a power stroke to add to everything else he does. He turns 25 in 2 weeks, it's not like he's been rushed. Just call the man up already, he has earned the opportunity.

[willie key]

I think it would be a huge mistake to have rookie middle infield plus they aren’t great fielders.

 

 

Hiura was the right move. Let’s leave it at that

[markedman5]

Can we get a few more runs please?......just can't see us winning this game 1-0

No one said he's going to start at SS every night. He's versatile.

 

Totally untrue about his defense as well. Dubon has very solid scouting reports about his defense, he's a far more polished middle infielder defensively than Hiura.

[willie key]

Would you take Davies out here? Trying to get an extra inning could be one too far

Is an extra inning of Davies any more risky than our bullpen?

Is he better than Arcia though? A rookie middle infield in a pennant race would be a crapshoot

[Eye Black]

Career infielder Tyler Saladino now playing multiple meaningful games in the outfield. It’s sort of ironic that the Brewers seemingly had an embarrassment of riches in outfield prospects a few years ago and have either had every one of them traded, injured, or slow to develop. Yes, obviously I know Grisham is breaking out now, but that is a very recent development.

[adambr2]

Grisham, Dubon, and Shaw all went yard for San Antonio so far tonight.

[pacopete4]

If the Brewers can play well this weekend going into the break, it will curb a lot of this "mediocre" and "this team is bad" talk. Davies will hopefully pitch another gem today. The fact is the whole devision isn't played super great, so the opportunity is prime for the Brewers to step up and take control.

 

Ya know what? Screw you for this reasonable take. You should be banned.

With this offense, give me the better hitter.

Yeah what a waste of a post. Who cares if we are in first and have a wild card spot. We are terrible. In fact in the Nl apparently everyone but the Braves and Dodgers should be sellers

[willie key]

What in the hell

[PinaMadness]

Everyone has their gloves on ready to take the field with Saladino up with two outs.

You're not wrong, but every team in the Central probably feels like the opportunity is prime for them to step up and take control.

Also, why is Saladino still in the game with Brault pulled? Maybe he’ll challenge Counsell’s 45 at bat hitless streak at some point.

[adambr2]

Saladino isn't going to be with the team after the AS break. I hope.

[markedman5]

I'd love for them to win a few games here but so far this year we have been mediocre.......and lately we have been worse.

 

It gives me no,pleasure to say it.

[yourout]

Moose is 4 for his last 32 and 11 for his last 58.

Really scuffling right now.

[yourout]

Yaz is 12 for his last 57 and is struggling as well.

.159 over his last 15 games.

[markedman5]

Heck,of a pick by Jesus

Hiura was the right move. Let’s leave it at that

 

Except they wouldn’t be getting rid of Arcia. They would be using Dubon as the de facto utility guy, and he’s probably a vast improvement over Perez/Saladino.

 

Dubon is supposed to be a very polished defender. Not sure where your getting that from.

Is it good for Dubon to be a part tine player. I’m not poo pooing it. I’m just asking
