Urias raised his OPS 28 points today (756 to 784)

I was just going to ask if it made sense to use Hader here in a low leverage situation...

 

I get it, he needs to knock some rust off, but then again, does this appearance mean he isn't available tomorrow?

 

Damned if you do and damned if you don't I guess.

I’m glad to see it. Let him work some of the rust out.

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Ever since someone mentioned how often Sophia says "He said" when she speaks, it drives me freaking crazy.

 

It is constant.

Against the Pirates?

Peterson has raised his from .751 to .814.

 

Granted, he's at only 178 PA's, but that's still quite a jump in one day.

Maybe she needs a thesaurus for her birthday. XD

I wouldn't be shocked to see a 1 or 2 run game after the offensive showing of the past few days...

 

Pirates or not, I'd hate to have him unavailable tomorrow in a game that we need him.

 

Again, not sure of the right answer...

Romine watching Urias’ HR soar out of the park reminded me of Henry Rauengartner in Rookie of the Year.

Who pitches the 9th?

 

Maybe the Brewers should be one of the first teams to use a position player with a lead.
