2020-09-25, Game 2: Brewers (Lindblom) at Cardinals (Ponce de Leon) [Brewers lose, 9-1]

[brewers888]

Time for Garcia to earn some of his money.

[adambr2]

For as much as people have liked Nottingham, that buck sixty three average is pretty hideous. But, keep getting on base. Would be a good time for Garcia to demonstrate that untapped power he was supposed to have.

[Eye Black]

I knew it wasn’t many, but for some reason I thought Garcia had more than two home runs this year. That’s really disappointing for a guy that looks like he should be able to hit them.

[TURBO]

Another great at bat from 2homer Garcia...

[brewers888]

Garcia sucks

[folly412]

Stearns is going to have a lot of work to do this offseason regardless of what happens this weekend. We all have to hope he does far better than he did this last offseason.

 

Another uphill battle considering there is exactly zilch for position prospects expected to arrive from the minors.

 

Where is Eric Kratz weirdness when you need it?

 

Throwing knuckleballs and capturing the hearts of Yankees fans at age 40. Bless him.

[brewers888]

Too bad the Garcia contract was two years instead of one. I would rather have Sogard back next year than this guy.

[adambr2]

Garcia, Sogard, Holt, Lindblom, Urias, Leuer, Narvaez, Morrison.

 

This is the worst offseason I can think of in recent Brewer history, and not just in the Stearns era.

[bm1090]

We're getting some good swings in. Expect a run or a few for the Crew next inning.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I mean, that was hit hard. Arcia's too.

 

I feel like so mich of the offense's issue is approach. Trying to hit EVERYTHING for HRs. And thes guys aren't good enough hitters to get away with it. So, you get lots of Ks and outs evem on hard hit balls. Garcia should be a doubles machine. Instead, he's bad.

[brewers888]

I would love to know how many times this team has gone at least the first three innings with no hits.

[trwi7]

Garcia, Sogard, Holt, Lindblom, Urias, Leuer, Narvaez, Morrison.

 

This is the worst offseason I can think of in recent Brewer history, and not just in the Stearns era.

 

I should think so, signing basketball players to play baseball will never go well.

[TURBO]

Garcia, Sogard, Holt, Lindblom, Urias, Leuer, Narvaez, Morrison.

Justin Smoak says "what about me?"

[adambr2]

We're getting some good swings in. Expect a run or a few for the Crew next inning.

 

We said that after the first only to watch the Spanish explorer strike out the side in the 2nd.

[brewers888]

Gyorko was the only signing that wasn't a complete flop unless you count Phelps who pitched well and got us some prospects.

Anderson has been solid.

Yeah he was worth signing.

[Eye Black]

Garcia, Sogard, Holt, Lindblom, Urias, Leuer, Narvaez, Morrison.

There were rumors that Brian Goodwin was the hitter they almost added at the deadline before losing out to the Reds. He’s been a -0.3 WAR player in the three weeks since joining the Reds, would’ve fit in well with that group.

I didn't like hearing that at all.

[Bulldogboy]

Nothing says huge September game like Craig Coshun. He's terrible

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Making Dylan Carlson look like Trout. Yikes.

 

Edit: Maybe it is just that everybody seems to have elite disciline compared to the lineup I see every day...good work from Rasmussen, though. Claudio too.

Time to wake up offense.

[Eye Black]

This would be a good inning for some offense, including run(s).

[adambr2]

That was what should have happened to Weiters last time he was up.

I wish they would invest in one dedicated #2 guy next year who can do the play by play whenever BA cuts out. They're literally on the fourth option. The Jace Peterson of broadcasting if you will.
