Score some runs

 

my god

 

 

enough of this garbage.   It’s getting tired

[treego14]

Gott Heem!  ?

[Brewcrew82]

I'll tell you what, Gott looks like another Stearns bullpen find. Now, is one single run too much to ask?!

[treego14]

USFL is on BOTH NBC and Fox ... everybody loves the USFL ... even more than the NFL, apparently!  ?

No, it is not!!!!  ?

It's hard to hit 100 mph pitches at the moment, though.

Back in the 80s it was a viewership success. It's a shame they had to fold so soon.

[treego14]

Yelich needs to be in there every day with all the money he is getting paid UNLESS he is exhausted or hurt!

[TURBO]

Getting sick and tired of Cain not hustling down to 1B...

Can't wait to get this guy off the books.

[HarryDoyle]

Cain is a bench guy at this point in his career.

Too bad Yelli is exhausted already and can't play today, instead.

[BuckyBrewer61]

You know what they say in baseball.  Every team scores in 60 games, gets shutout in 60 games, and whether or not you score in the other 42 games determines how your season goes.

[treego14]

I want Garrett Mitchell on the MLB team ... he's gotta' be as good as Tyrone Taylor, probably better than Cain at this point in Cain's career -- might be nearly as good as Yelli right now, too.

I'm holding off on judgment on Hunter Renfroe, yet.

He's a late-30s player who can still play CF, be around a league average starter (2-ish WAR in 2021), and is in the last year of a big contract.

If you think that's a bad outcome, I can show you many other MLB contracts that are so much worse. It will be nice to have Cain off the books but he has been just fine for the Brewers considering his age and the contract.

Mitchell hasn’t even been good in AA. He’s not ready yet.

[treego14]

At least, the Cubs are losing in Colorado!  Go, Rockies! 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Damn it.

[HarryDoyle]

That should do it.

[HarryDoyle]

Cousins is the offense of the pitching staff.

[bulldogboy0733]

The Jake Cousins experiment probably needs to end.

[RightFieldCoder]

Cousins needs to take some time away from close games.

[Sixtolezcano]

I really don’t see us scoring 2 or even 3 runs tonight,

I always liked his subs.

Maybe he should try the submarine throws.

[NBBrewFan]

Is it against the rules to have 2 catchers? Move one of the infielders to the unoccupied batters box to assist with catching the wild pitches.

[markedman5]

Can’t trust Cousins……….

but then again with this offense probably won’t matter…….

Baseball gets boring fast when your team has one of the worst offenses in the major leagues.
