Brandon Woodruff: Batter (Reds) vs Pitching Stats

 

Luis Castillo: Batter (Brewers) vs Pitching Stats

[wibadgers23]

Woodruff is about due for a monster game and with the Reds offense stinking up the joint, I’m expecting good things tonight.

[CheezWizHed]

I'm curious if Woodruff and Burnes are still stretching out a bit or not. Woodruff especially seems to be lights-out initially then starts to struggle in the 4th or 5th inning. Likewise with Burnes, but he tends to struggle a bit right away (some, not all games)...once he settles down he locks in until the 4th/5th.

[Eye Black]

Jace Peterson getting his first start for the Brewers, batting 9th and playing LF.

[folly412]

If like Holt, Peterson is going to spend more than half of his time in the outfield, it leaves me to believe that that Corey Ray is not impressing in Appleton.

[markedman5]

Obviously CC wants lefties against Castillo

[Devinep]

Oh good, I was worried Urias was going to play instead of Sogard. Puke

[brewers888]

Its enough with the Sogard in the lineup against every righty. Let Gyorko play every day and get some at bats. As for Peterson even being on this roster its a perfect example of why we should be selling at the deadline.

[brewers888]

Why is Urias on the bench. These lineup decisions have been baffling all season long.

[Devinep]

Why is Urias on the bench. These lineup decisions have been baffling all season long.

 

Because it is vital that Sogard gets in, for some reason. CC living vicariously through him is my guess

[RollieTime]

Counsell’s man crush for Sogard gives me the willies. *shutters*

[TURBO]

MUST..........................................START...........................................SOGARD.

[TURBO]

Joey Votto has a large head.

 

That is all.

[Zad Fnark]

Immaculate inning alert.

[Zad Fnark]

Nuts...

[RollieTime]

Joey Votto has a large head.

 

That is all.

 

You know what they say about big heads...

[owbc]

Immaculate inning ruined by the ump.

[Eye Black]

Jesse Winker swinging out of his shoes like he’s trying to hit one over Miller Park Way.

[wildcat83]

Cy Woodruff first inning

[Bulldogboy]

I keep hearing how the Grisham deal was a good one because we got a high end shortstop in Urias. That's cool except he never plays short and he doesn't play against righties despite Sogard being the other option. Color me baffled

[trwi7]

Joey Votto has a large head.

 

That is all.

 

[RollieTime]

Woodruff looks dialed in. This could be a fun game to watch.

[Eye Black]

Barnhart picked that Smoak (foul) ball up in the batters box and it was called an out on the tag?

[TURBO]

I don't understand how a guy like Jace Peterson is the best of what we have to put on the big team...

 

Seriously, has this guy earned a spot on the major league roster? What about him makes anyone think he should have a shot at the show?

[yourout]

Not sure if this is great pitching or bad hitting or a bit of both.

 

Tons of empty swings.
