Game Thread (4/24/2022): Brewers (Lauer) at Phillies (Nola) - 6:08 PM CDT

Have a game Lauer 13 k's!

[bulldogboy0733]

Angel had to help of course but Lauer looked fantastic. This development along with Ashby and Small coming up means the decision is clear. You have to trade some pitching to get some bats. It aint ideal but it is necessary. 

[HarryDoyle]

To be fair, Lauer got a few assists from Hernandez.

Grisham who?? Urias who??

Not many would have guessed that Lauer may be the best player in the trade.

So, so many were absolutely convinced that Stearns got fleeced on that one. A big lesson in not grading trades involving very young players immediately.

Is it time for everyone to lower their expectations of Yelich. He’s late on everything.

Ain't boring if you appreciate good pitching.

Agreed. Think MLB changed their ball make-up too quickly? At least 3TO was more interesting than this tripe!

[bulldogboy0733]

With the lack of offense this team is going to need all the bullpen it can get. We probably need two relivers in order to play all the close games. It is going to be tough to survive with Williams and Box looking blah.

I certainly did in 2020...

It certainly looks that way … maybe even 10 innings

Unfortunately, about 80% of baseball games this year are good pitched games. 3TO was far more entertaining than this crap.

[TURBO]

I'd rather see a pitcher's dual than being down 5-1...

[MoreTrife]

So where does the Brewers starters fall in Brewer's history (gotta be the best rotation) and baseball history (excluding longevity, moment in time)?

Eric Lauer 13K appreciation post.

Hard to say as Sheets only really had one year where the Brewers were relevant.

Woodruff and Burnes are better than Gallardo.  Woodruff and Burnes are in the top 5 of Brewers pitchers all time already.

This is the best rotation that the Brewers have ever had historically.  I would rank this rotation at #1.

MLB history wise probably in the top 50 somewhere.  

[Brewcrew82]

Okay, can someone please luck into a home run? 

[edfunderburk]

7 innings

1 hit

We are 10% of the way into the 2022 season

I can only recall a few good offensive games - 0 great games
