That’s a good one, lol.

You're right, it was a good trade for both teams.

[HarryDoyle]

Bring back Hader, please.

[bulldogboy0733]

Counsell just fell asleep again. He might have to go. Seriously.

[yourout]

This was bad management by CC. Rogers should face as few rightys as possible.

[Pugger]

I'll never understand why Stearns and company didn't think we needed another bat.

[jason21nl]

Laughable.   Absolutely laughable.  

[DuWayne Steurer]

Well.. there went the little bit of drama left in the top of the 9th. 

[YelichPosse]

I despise the Cardinals. 
I despise we didn’t get a bat or three.

I despise our manager leaves guys out past their expiration dates when they clearly don’t have it.

sigh.

Hader was giving up dingers too.  

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Of course it's going to be 62-year-old Albert Pujols to singlehandedly beat them. Ugh.

[HarryDoyle]

That trade is a fireable offense for Sternes.

[bulldogboy0733]

I would have pulled Rodgers against Pujols if I was playing the Show. Meanwhile 12 coaches in the dugout just watched that.

Hader has sucked too.

[Sixtolezcano]

Brewers are back by 1.5 games. That’s the best we realistically could have hoped for going into this weekend.

[willie key]

The brewers are just not a good team.    Definitely not a playoff team

Cripes sakes.  The only chance they had was to win a bunch of games against the cardinals.    And that’s gone now

 

Just three months of garbage baseball

CC isn't going anywhere unfortunately.

[jason21nl]

Craig has had by far his worst year managing and it’s not even close.   He’s been truly awful this year.   I’d give him one more year but on a short leash.

Rogers is essentially a loogy. You can not let him face a bunch of rightys. This inning should have been Box.

He had a bad one week stretch after dominating the first three months of the season and being the best reliever in baseball for three years. You don't bail on someone like that because of a hiccup.

I wouldn’t bet on that.

That's not why they bailed on him. $$$

Let Stearns go and push Counsell upstairs. 8 years and no World Series is enough in my opinion. New young talent hopefully on the way so get a new manager. Counsell doesn't really seem like a fan of young players anyway.

That’s all we need is a GM to clear out our prospects for more 36 yo ball players.
