Game Thread (7/30/2022): Brewers (Lauer) at Red Sox (Pivetta) - 3:10 PM CDT

[Nola Beery]

nasty pitch to  Wong for the backward K

[folly412]

Not many can hammer breaking balls like Renfroe.

[Nola Beery]

That was goooood

[edfunderburk]

Renfroe for JBJ

I’d do it again

[Brewcrew82]

Renfroe and McCutchen>Castellanos

[Brewcrew82]

Urias showing off the glove and the arm today. 

[sveumrules]

Obviously winning on the HR vs JBJ end of the trade. Here’s an update on the prospects we sent out…

Alex Binelas raked in A+, 259 PAs | 26.6 K% | 126 wRC+, but has struggled so far in a small sample at AA, 95 PAs | 33.6 K% | 75 wRC+.

David Hamilton has played the whole year at AA with 359 PAs | 90 wRC+ | 47/4 SB/CS.

[Brewcrew82]

Lauer doing exactly what you want from you 4/5 starter today...

[Dragonbait]

Wow.. Gott cut his hair... my wife thought it was Boxberger

Hamilton will make an MLB roster just for his speed … similar to Quinton Berry

The crew is looking good over the past several games. They’re on the verge of making the postseason a given.

Whoa. That’s quite a way off yet.
Only a 3 game lead in the division and 3 games ahead of the last wild card spot.

That can change in one series, much less 60 games. 
 

[willie key]

It would have been nice not to have to go back to Williams and hader since they threw a lot of pitches but alas here we go again

It might be a little too early to anoint them as a playoff team just yet…lol.

I remember 2014 very vividly.

[The stache]

??‍♂️
 

 

[The stache]

We’ll be lucky to escape this inning with a lead.

Inning should be over if Tellez gets to 1B.

[Brewcrew82]

Phewww. 

[Brewcrew82]

Need some add-on runs. 

[willie key]

Don’t complain about being unlucky anymore

[Brewcrew82]

I think what @Brock Beauchampmeant is that they're increasingly looking like a locked-in playoff team, not that they're actually locked-in...

Poor defense has reared it's ugly head far too often this year.

Pro athletes should get in shape.     He can’t run the bases either
