I thought the same on the timing. I mean, that's just terrible luck. There wasn't room for Severino on the roster, but man. Couldn't get any worse.

And then Caratini takes one off the neck on an HBP.

Can’t you call back a DFA?

[Pugger]

 

Is that Lurch playing the harpsichord?

 

[edfunderburk]

Nice job … hopefully Stearns won’t DFA Rogers 

Nice work in his Milwaukee debut 

[edfunderburk]

I hope we don’t see Suter throw again unless we are down five runs late 

Come to think of it … I prefer Brosseau

Actually, if nobody claims him first I think you have 7 days to rescind it, but that might just be my erroneous OOTP video game mind speaking

[Pugger]

It will be interesting to see how Williams does as our closer now.

[edfunderburk]

Who is left to pitch in relief?

I can’t imagine Williams unless we have the lead

Gotta use Brosseau somewhere.  I know it's a smaller sample size (100-110 Abs) but the guy has the best splits against lefties, best Average/OBP on the entire team, an OPS over .800 yet can't find his way past the Gatorade cooler.

He won’t close tonight unless he goes two innings 

[yourout]

Careful with Reynolds.

[torts]

I saw they called in suter to face cruz and I just knew he was going to Riverblast him.  Cruz is going to be a thorn, isn't he

[edfunderburk]

Surely Stearns will drop Suter when Cousins, Topa, Rosenthal, & Houser return

[BruisedCrew]

That didn’t take long.

[edfunderburk]

Reynolds would have been a nice bat for Milwaukee 

[dlk9s]

Let the board meltdown commence.

[mtrebs]

Was anyone actually surprised at that?

I think you mean continue...

[edfunderburk]

We are not a good team

Hope we scratch our way to the playoffs 

Not sure this roster gets us that far

Pathetic

I spoke too soon...

[The stache]

Oh yes. Much better than having Hader here.

If nothing else he would not be out there beating the hell out of the crew.

[bulldogboy0733]

These two games all things considered could not have gone worse for the Brewers.

I would much rather take my chances with Strzelecki up until that point.  

[titletownking]

Good to see the bats wake up tonight. Bullpen was dreadful. Suter should be DFA’d.
