2020-08-29: Pirates (Brubaker) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers win, 7-6 -- Hader blown save; Sogard hits walk-off HR]

[BruisedCrew]

At least his season long “no hitter” is still intact.

[Eye Black]

This is why you trade even the most elite reliever when their value is highest

Wait, weren’t you literally just saying earlier today you would only trade him for Gavin Lux (which isn’t happening)?

[jjfanec]

Hader still hasn't given up a hit though so that is something

[lcbj68c]

Should have faced 3 batters. Thanks Craig!

[nate82]

Doesn't look like Williams is fairing any better than Hader.........

[brewers888]

Now Williams can't throw a strike

[wildcat83]

Is that mound regulation height or what????

I'm not giving him away

[nate82]

Ump gives the Brewers a courtesy strike I guess he was feeling bad.

It was a makeup for the one right before that was a strike.

[brewers888]

I don't think these pitchers like throwing to Nottingham

[jjfanec]

Brewers pitchers had combined to throw 12 straight balls until the 3-0 strike to Reynolds that looked high

Looked like a strike to me. The box has been short for awhile. The pitch was below the letters.

They seemed to be fine with him yesterday.

[Lostpawn]

Now the box looks right.

So you’ll only trade him for one very specific player/return, but he must be traded when his value is highest. Got it.

Burnes threw 6 shoutout last night. Try again.

Your words literally yesterday:

 

"I haven't seen any offers brought up so far that I would accept. If we aren't getting a sure thing in a deal and I haven't seen one yet in any of these potential deals I would just hold Hader and try to make improvements in other ways. Remember that Josh still has three years after this in a Brewers uniform so if we are going to move him now a star prospect like Lux better be included."

[MrTPlush]

RALLY RALLY RALLY RALLY

[Eye Black]

Well, a Yelich walk off could save this night from being a disaster.

[wildcat83]

Good work by Williams, wish it was a batter earlier and we may still be tied at least.

[jjfanec]

Peterson and sogard is not an ideal first two for a rally...

There were no strikes thrown for the first 4 pitches in that AB. Pitches 1 2 and 3 were clearly out of the zone and pitch 4 was way out of the strike zone. The closes pitch was the 2nd pitch of that AB and that wasn't even a close pitch either.

[brewers888]

I'm only trading him for elite prospects. Whether thats Lux or Gore or some other top guy that needs to be the return when Hader still has 3 years of control after this one.
