2020-09-24: Brewers (Burnes) at Cardinals (Kim) [Brewers lose, 4-2]

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Yeah, the double there was hit way harder.

 

Knebel is not the same dudem. Can't buy it. No put away pitch. Missing way too much on the high FB.

 

It's a stars and scrubs BP.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

The Brewers have scored 3 or fewer runs in 30 of their 55 games this year. That isn't good.

[Eye Black]

I can handled missing the playoffs this year, but I’m going to be really annoyed when they miss them by one game or by losing out on a tie breaker.

 

I'd also like to add that I can handle missing the playoffs too, but not at the hands of the freaking Cardinals...

 

I'd rather lose out to the Cubs than the Cardinals.

Another part that’s bugging me is that next year’s draft is absolutely loaded with elite talent near the top. The Brewers are sort of out of the running for a great pick (#12 or #13 is probably the best they could do), so if they were going to waste away the pandemic shortened season with an anemic offense I wish the prize was going to be a little better.

I think this weekend is the last we will see Knebel in a Brewers uniform. I would take the chance on him next year but if we cut costs again he will be one that we let go.

[vetter]

Burnes could have pitched just about the game of his life and it wouldn’t have mattered because this offense is an embarrassment.

 

Unfortunately we could say the exact thing for fill in the blank pitcher pretty much all season.

Surely there will be a middle infielder that can't hit or a toolsy outfielder waiting to put it all together for us.

[TURBO]

2 hours and 45 minutes and we are not through the 6th inning yet...

 

Anyone know what the average game time is this year?

[pacopete4]

History repeats itself?

[TURBO]

History repeats itself?

 

D"Amico wasn't ready for the bright lights either...

[brewers888]

You know they have no confidence in Knebel when they would rather have Topa face Goldschmidt.

[yourout]

Without the 18 and 19 run games the Brewers average 3.754 runs per game which would be 27th in MLB.

[markedman5]

That first pitch was called a ball......lol

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Um...that first pitch to Goldschmidt was where exactly?

[markedman5]

Um...that first pitch to Goldschmidt was where exactly?

 

Worst call of the year?

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Topa hitting 100 MPH is fun.

Oh my dude. Give it a rest already. I do find it funny that one of the biggest chokers in the game of baseball was referenced with winning Cy Young’s and then not showing up when it matters though.

Amen. Lots of velocity with him and Rasmussen.

[TURBO]

You do realize Burnes is hurt, right?

How does a big league ump miss that?[attachment=0]Screen Shot 09-24-20 at 09.59 PM.PNG[/attachment]

Was he to start the game?

[brewers888]

Wasn't Garcia supposed to provide some power. What a waste of a big contract for the franchise.

[yourout]

I don't think you can go into next season expecting anything from Nottingham.

 

Hitting .210 with some pop would be one thing but .175 is just not enough.

[brewers888]

Can we stop blaming Burnes for getting hurt and put the responsibility for this likely loss where it belongs and thats on this pitiful offense.

[markedman5]

Kershaw is a great pitcher........guys have bad games......he will be a first ballot hall of famer.....I’m sure we could find lots of great pitchers who were healthy and had difficult starts in must win situations.......

 

 

Just because a guy has a bad outing doesn’t mean he choked........

 

I really can’t believe that after the year Burnes had this is the conversation you want to have about him.......it’s shocking to me considering the good fan you are and the fact that he was obviously hurt.
