Spencer Turnbull: Batter (Brewers) vs Pitching Stats

[TURBO]

Houser REALLY needs a good start tonight!

[markedman5]

From the thread yesterday......I would say Gyorko has worked out!

 

[folly412]

 

Should be good for a pair o'runs tonight.

[TURBO]

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

Also, why the heck isn't Braun in the IL? I get that there isn't really much of anything that he's taking the spot of, but heck, I'd rather see Ray get a little playing time than watch glimpses of Braun sitting on the bench in a polo shirt.

[brewers888]

Better get used to Sogard because he is most likely coming back next season. He will probably have to take a pay cut and make 3 million instead of 5 but with the way Counsell uses him it says that he will be on this team next season.

Don't we seem to go through this every season where we keep guys on the active roster when they can't play for a week. We are probably better off with Braun as a pinch hitter than Ray taking a spot on the roster.

Yeah this is getting slightly ridiculous. Either play or send him to the IL.

[markedman5]

He’s not on the IL because anybody that they would bring up isn’t good enough to play and with the DH the extra bench spot isn’t critical.

 

With the off day tomorrow he might be ready to go as soon as Friday for all we know.

Lindblom seems like a good guy so I am sort of happy we gave him enough money to retire on. With that said it was just one of many awful moves that we made last offseason. Really Gyorko and Phelps before being traded were the only moves that have worked out well so far.

[brewers888]

Great start to this one.

[brewers888]

How does Urias not throw to first for the easy double play.

Big mistake. Even if the runner on third had broken for the plate and scored they’d basically be out of the inning with one run. Now the big inning is still in order.

[brewers888]

Great bases loaded.

[brewers888]

Unbelievable what is Narvaez doing. Could have picked it up and thrown home.

[PinaMadness]

I don't even know what to say anymore.

[BruisedCrew]

Another game ready to be turned off early.

[PinaMadness]

When plays like that happen, you know it's going to be a bad year.

[BruisedCrew]

Hauser’s had some bad luck, but you have to finish off a guy batting under .200.

 

Good night.

[brewers888]

You can thank Urias for this disastrous inning but Houser just has to be better.

[Underachiever]

I’m done. Just can’t do it.

[BruisedCrew]

Remember when people thought the string of games against the Pirates, Reds, and Tigers would be the Brewers’ chance to make a move above .500.

This team is more painful to watch than 2002. At least that team was supposed to be bad, this team is just as god-awful to watch but they keep drawing me in because they should be better than this. It's a true miracle that Counsell has somehow found a way to get them to 16 wins.
