2020-09-15: Cardinals (Flaherty) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers win, 18-3 -- Offense comes alive; Yelich and Vogelbach lead the way with 3 hits apiece including HRs]

[ecjimg]

Last night someone said that should be Jace Peterson last ab. Counsell is not buying it. He's the new Sogard.

 

It was me and I'm disgusted with the way that Counsell has managed the team this season. Why can't they just play Gyorko at third and find a way to get Gamel in the game at first or one of the outfield positions. Vogelbach is clearly a DH only but that doesn't mean that Peterson should ever be in the lineup.

 

Yes! This is why I came to the thread today. Why not use someone with more upside? Taylor? Or even Healy I guess. At least Healy had a productive stretch in MLB.

[BruisedCrew]

That should be all Flaherty needs.

[TURBO]

Geez, I'm 10 minutes late to turning the game on and we are already down?

[TURBO]

YELICH!

[pacopete4]

BRAUN!

[TURBO]

When is the last time we went back t back?

[TURBO]

I'm sure Keston will be swinging for one here too...

[Eye Black]

Gyorko saved Jace Peterson on that overthrow from 3B. With a ground ball pitcher on the mound a little surprised they have Peterson on the infield.

[AKCheesehead]

Hah when you guys were screaming Yelich and Braun the first thing I was thinking was that they both struck out, had to check the score to see.

[TURBO]

Peterson has no future with this team, he knows it, the Brewers know it, we know it, yet he continues to get playing time while guys we are unsure of sit.

 

ridiculous.

[TURBO]

Hah when you guys were screaming Yelich and Braun the first thing I was thinking was that they both struck out, had to check the score to see.

 

Given this season, that is completely understandable.

[Underachiever]

5 Ks, 2 HR, in the first 8 batters.

[TURBO]

YELICH!

[TURBO]

VOGELBACH!

[TURBO]

Why did Braun slide into home with Yelich obviously telling him not to? Perfect way to get hurt.

[TURBO]

C'mon Keston, join the hit party!

[mtsportsfan]

Seems like in forever , a two out hit that drives in some runs . Go crew

[homer]

Vogelbach is 10/27 since joining the Crew....hitting just like we all thought he would.

[Underachiever]

Vogelbach is 10/27 since joining the Crew....hitting just like we all thought he would.

And he’s going the other way a lot.

It’s insane that there’s actually a brewer who focuses on contact with 2 strikes

From 5-57 with Seattle and Toronto. Hit that one hard as well. Saw an article from when Seattle released him noting his exit velocity was bottom 11% in the league - chicken or egg, was part of the problem.

[owbc]

Vogey has a nice short swing and is capable of hitting the ball somewhere other than directly into the shift. I like it. Sooner or later he's going to find a power stroke.

[Lostpawn]

Yet another infield hit. (YAIH?)

[edfunderburk]

Gyorko saved Jace Peterson on that overthrow from 3B. With a ground ball pitcher on the mound a little surprised they have Peterson on the infield.

I’m shocked he wasn’t sent to Appleton last night

 

I’d much rather see Mathias on the MLB roster

 

It may be good to see if McKinley could help too

[homer]

I wonder if Brewers told Vogelbach to forget about hitting dingers and just worry about hitting liners to the opposite field? Could it be that easy?
