2020-09-11: Cubs (Lester) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 1-0 -- Woodruff w/ 7.0 IP, 12 SO, 1 H, 0 BB; Braun walk-off sac fly in 9th]

[adambr2]

I'm ready for a bit of nerd power. Hiura needs some bench.

 

Ahh hard pass on that.

[LouisEly]

Kudos to Lester, he hasn't been putting anything over the heart of the plate. Painting the edges of the zone tonight.

[markedman5]

3 ks for Yelich.....all on pitches out of the zone I believe

[adambr2]

Good God Yelich. I don't expect a 1.000+ OPS every year but come on man. We're two thirds through this season.

[adambr2]

Having an offense was fun for the one game that it lasted.

[brewerfan82]

Good God Yelich. I don't expect a 1.000+ OPS every year but come on man. We're two thirds through this season.

To be fair, in a normal year he'd still have 120 games left to raise that OPS.

[LouisEly]

Good God Yelich. I don't expect a 1.000+ OPS every year but come on man. We're two thirds through this season.

Technically he's also only a month and a half into the season.

Quit making statistics say whatever you want them to say!

[Underachiever]

Burnes and Woodruff last two games: 14 IP, 2 H, O R, 23 K

[mtsportsfan]

Never thought I would say this , but it be time drop Yelich and Huira down in the lineup for a few games .

[MrTPlush]

Have a day Woodruff, have a day.

[Bulldogboy]

Another nice frame by Nottingham. Soft hands quiet. If he bring his bat to the party we may have something.

[markedman5]

What a performance by Woody.....

 

Back to back gems by our 2 horses

[TURBO]

Never thought I would say this , but it be time drop Yelich and Huira down in the lineup for a few games .

 

...and replace them with who?

[adambr2]

It wasn't long ago that we churned out position players but couldnt produce pitchers. Looking forward to seeing Burnes and Woodruff anchor this rotation for awhile.

[LouisEly]

Cubs broadcasters:

 

"(Caratini) has not gone deep yet this season. This would be an opportune time."

 

(Woodruff blows one by at 97)

 

"Not gonna happen."

[folly412]

Back to back 7 inning 1 hit starts. One with 11 Ks, the other 12 Ks. That's pretty good.

[TURBO]

19 runs in the last game means they're going to struggle to score at all tonight

 

bumping this for accuracy.

[Underachiever]

Ooh, let's get Kimbrel.

[brewerfan82]

Never thought I would say this , but it be time drop Yelich and Huira down in the lineup for a few games .

 

...and replace them with who?

Exactly...

 

[TURBO]

Sogard for Urias?

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[TURBO]

Sogard shouldn't be pinch hitting for anyone.

 

(hopefully I'll do a reverse jinx by saying so)

[Bulldogboy]

Sogard pinch hitting for Urias makes zero sense. This is who you traded Grisham for?? Platoon bat??

[Eye Black]

Woodruff had a fantastic night, [sarcasm]but he just wasn’t quite good enough to qualify for a win.[/sarcasm]

[LouisEly]

Looks like the Brewers get good Kimbrel tonight, not the 9.8 BB/9 Kimbrel.
