So , that means he has had plenty of time off . just because its early doesn't mean these games don't count.

Brewers do all this stuff to keep guys from being hurt and we still have two thirds of the team out with injuries

this is called the Strasburg effect

One of the reasons I don't go to Sunday  games . always seems to be weird throw away lineups.

Of course they all count the same. But the difference is that there's still several more months of baseball that these guys have to get through. Plus, Urias and Hiura have both hit Wainwright well whereas Adames hasn't so I'm sure he figured today would be as good a day as any.

The one time a strike out would be preferable.

[edfunderburk]

This blows

We are not a good team

81-81 will be challenging

I like you, man., but this is just not true. The season series is currently tied and we're losing by one run...

[Brewcrew82]

My main issue with Counsell this year is his usage of Hader. He's the most underutilized elite reliever in baseball. Compare that to how the Cardinals are using Helsley, Gallegos, and Cabrera....

[yourout]

Good work from the Pen.

[folly412]

DFA Kelley now. Can only get worse from here.

I know … just tired of a month or more of mediocre baseball 

[Brewcrew82]

Ughh why did Counsell have Lauer pitch to Goldschmidt and Arenado....

Not quite that long, but yeah me, too. Hopefully better days lie ahead and we don't suffer any more injuries to our rotation. 

[edfunderburk]

Hoping for a 9th inning miracle 

Don’t want a close loss

We need a win tonight 

[yourout]

If they can get a couple of multi inning middle relief guys up to speed CC needs to rethink how he handles Lauer and Houser.

More old new school CC with openers.

Counsell's been leaving his starters in too long this year more times than we'd like.

The argument could be made that his hand is forced by a shorthanded pen and not having the guys he'd like to have in the pen, but at the same time, Houser and Lauer especially have been hung out to dry a few too many times.  

[yourout]

This plate ump has turned around several ABs with bad strike calls.

another called strike that wasn't. Changed the ab

[Sixtolezcano]

Another loss. Ho hum.

 

[stoutdude04]

Just popping in...this ump stinks.

[Caswell]

Please just don't over swing

[Caswell]

Ooh that hurts

It seems to me that we’ve only played 10-12 good games this year
