2020-08-12: Twins (Maeda) at Brewers (Lauer) [Brewers lose, 12-2]

[brewers888]

Counsell has to force Sogard in the lineup nearly every night but he can't play Pina who is hitting and a far better defensive catcher.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Lauer has been unimpressive. Basic stuff. I want Davies back.

 

I was a big Davies guy, but they basically throw the same crap. Only difference is Lauer is a lefty, and is younger with more years of control. Davies got slapped around plenty unless his control was top notch.

[brewers888]

This team is so lucky to be hanging around .500.

[yourout]

Lauer kind of sucks.

[MrTPlush]

Anything good on TV tonight?

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Error and some weak hits. Badly played fly ball. 3 rums.

[PinaMadness]

It's The Curse of the Pineapple.

[yourout]

Three-run channel changer coming

Error and some weak hits. Badly played fly ball. 3 rums.

Lauer has thrown 40 pitches in two innings. This isn't just bad luck.

[Jopal78]

I’d rather still have Grisham and Davies. First awful trade of Stearns tenure

I don't know but I'm about to start Season 2 of my Knight Rider complete series dvd collection.

He isn't hitting his spots, and doesn't have the stuff to get away with that.

[folly412]

Watching Lauer lob 80 mph and not even be able to locate it is not exciting. Can we see Rasmussen, File, or maybe even Small?

Wasn't great last time out either.

[Jopal78]

There’s a reason the Padres were okay dealing a lefty starter with years of team control.

Need to see a heck of a lot more of Urias before making that call I think, but early returns aren't good, that's for sure

Jonathon Schoop says hi.

[BruisedCrew]

This team is so lucky to be hanging around .500.

 

Wait until they’re done with 4 against the Cubs and 3 more against the Twins.

 

9-14 maybe?

Schoop didn’t cost them good long term pieces though

[yourout]

Time for an exciting quantum leap rerun.

[owbc]

I would like to thank them for not tempting me to waste my time watching baseball tonight.

[treego14]

7 of 9 batters in the current Brewers lineup with a .200 average or lower.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Perhaps the Brewers should have Lauer throw batting practice. Our hitters could use the confidence boost.

[PinaMadness]

That ball Sano hit just landed in my backyard.

[pacopete4]

That was impressive power by Sano.
