I’m not sure which is worse, the lineup or the Brewers social media team’s misspelling of Adames.

 

My first reaction to the lineup is I hope Urias and Garcia aren’t injured from that seemingly minor collision yesterday.

[willie key]

That lineup is in first place

 

Hahahahahaha

 

 

Counsell is underrated as heck

[TURBO]

Fells like a "Give up" line-up today.

 

Since someone always says it, I might as well do the honors:

 

That means we probably score 12 runs.

 

Baseball.

Tyrone Taylor's injury was a freak accident, Counsell said. Felt it playing catch pregame yesterday, couldn't take BP. Counsell said it was relatively minor, though.

 

Just regular days off for Avisaíl García (on his birthday!) and Luis Urías, Counsell said.

Does he have to give them days off on the same day though?

 

Wait, yes he does, those off days have been on the calander for the past 2 weeks, they can not be changed, period.

Adames hitting 4? That escalated quickly

My guess is he is going to give Yelich and somebody else (Adames?) the day off tomorrow ……we fans want to see the best guys every day……obviously that isn’t how it’s going to work …..so I’ve come to grips with it…….CC has outperformed run differential just about every season I believe so I trust him and the front office to navigate through the season in the best way possible.

The game starts in an hour and the Pirates still haven’t released a lineup yet. That seems strange.

 

EDIT: Lineup now available and added to second post above.

While I've quite over the complaining about Peterson being on the roster, I'm still not sure I want him batting leadoff.

Tomorrow is a Yelich bobble head day so Yelich has to sit.

Is there a way that burnes can give the pirates negative runs?

 

I’d take a 0 to -1 win today

We can retroactively give them a run in yesterday's game. That's how it works, right?

Stearns has a great track record with relievers

 

 

Is this Strickland any good

[stoutdude04]

Hes been pretty bad the last 3 or 4 years I think.

 

If I recall, hes the guy that punched Harper. Could be wrong about all of that.

[willie key]

Is this the hothead dude from the giants

 

He’s still playing?

[Eye Black]

Not a great start for Burnes to have thrown 12 pitches without an out and runners at the corners.

 

EDIT: What a complete disaster.

[igor67]

I'm not even sure what I just watched

If Harper got punched, he deserved it. lol

So much for a great matchup with Burnes on the mound today. What a terrible start.

[BruisedCrew]

Looking like a good day to get some errands done and hope for the series win tomorrow.

[BruisedCrew]

Which position player will be on the mound today?
