Urius needs a week or two in Nashville 

He needs a come to Jesus moment in the offseason and it's either major changes or a change in scenery.

Great job Craig! Nice call!

I think Jesus was last spotted in Nashville, or was that his brother Aaron Rodgers?

[edfunderburk]

I would guesstimate 10-12 games where our starters have pitched well enough to win with average offense … but all of those are losses because this team underperforms

I wish the season ended this weekend

I hate watching this team lose or play poorly day after day - especially against such terrible teams as the Cubs, Pirates, & Reds 

You would hope the next 18 games against opponents with sub .500 records would produce a 14-4 run … I don’t believe this crew can win at that rate - which would be required to get back in the postseason 

Such a disappointing team & season

Counsell after the game I just wanted Freddy to get rested up, we have to look at the future and all of the bites at the apple going forward. No sense in throwing a no hitter tonight.

He's 2 for 21 and 7 for 49 while hitting .196 over the last 30 games.

[SomewhereInTime]

LOL.  I stepped away for a minute.  They pulled Peralta at 82 pitches with a No hitter going?  Absolute genius management!

[GoBrewers1982]

Here are your Milwaukee Brewers!

Just a fart in the wind! It’s over. I have watched the same stuff for months!

He has not been a good in game manager at all this year. The players may like him but he has been pretty crappy.

[NBBrewFan]

If Counsell is trying to get fired then why don't the Brewers oblige him? If he's not then he should be fired anyways. Managers don't really make much of an impact, but my god the head scratchers this year are too numerous to count.

[SomewhereInTime]

Year after year pitch counts get lower and lower, innings pitched less and less, and yet injuries keep increasing.

[yourout]

Throwing a 1 hitter and losing would be a very Brewer way to lose.

[NBBrewFan]

Does anybody think this team has a winning streak in them? 

[bulldogboy0733]

When the season is over we will all look back and say if only Trevor Rosenthal was healthy. Lol

Absolutely not. In the past the pitching would get on a run and carry them a bit but the hitting and defense is so bad it can't happen.

The feedback from the clubhouse is that may be in question?? 

[NBBrewFan]

Taylor Rogers repertoire is really impressive.  Takes him only 20 pitches to get all of the AAAA Cubs hitters out.

[magnoliacrew]

Front Row Amy is supporting the Brewers tonight. I refuse to believe that we will lose.

[YelichPosse]

If only we had some players who could help the big club in AAA playing well. It’s too bad we don’t.

[BruisedCrew]

This offense has so many holes that it’s hard to believe that guys who have never played in the majors would turn this around. 

[bulldogboy0733]

Brewers could really use a left handed hitting spark plug leadoff man type who could play centerfield and bring a spark to the lineup and set the table.........

[NBBrewFan]

For the love of god...................................... This isn't CRICKET Hunter!

Set the table for what? They had the table set several times today and did nothing with it.

Looks like they traded the worst hitting coach in the Majors for #2 and #3.

That’s a good deal - 2 for the price of 1!
