every 1b has a ton of scoops and picks. every defensive metric system measures him as below average.

I know, the eye test of biased fans is more accurate, but I'm gonna trust the numbers when every defensive system confirms that he's pretty rough.

 

Plus.    He can’t run at all.    At all

[yourout]

Why not Stryzlecki?

[DuWayne Steurer]

I'm all for the Brewers upgrading 1b. I don't know if they will, and I'm ok with rowdy for another year if they don't. I just wish a low OBP guy like Rowdy wasn't hitting 3rd as often as he does.

Oh, so you're a stats guy. Got it.

I’m sick of Yelich going out there every day.   Play other people next year.  

 He's got all winter to work on it. He's got to figure it out. I once compared his before/after injury swings. It looked to me as if he was about 1 inch lower before the injury. Maybe a winter of weighted squats will get him going again.

[jason21nl]

Go the hell away Yelich.  

[willie key]

Yelich.    Man

He had all last winter and all of the winter before to work on it. I think it's time to accept that MVP Christian Yelich is gone.

[willie key]

Adames doesn’t want to go home yet

 

rowdy does though

[DuWayne Steurer]

the suffering continues!!

He’s just not even good.   I don’t care about mvp.    

[yourout]

CC's bullpen management has been pretty bad this year.

[willie key]

You either win it here or give up

[Sixtolezcano]

I hope they play 18 innings.

[jason21nl]

Squeeze

[Sir Illo]

We want the ball and we’re gonna score?

[Ro Mueller]

Second chance for Urias to come through…

Lol, 23 homers and hitting .270 would be a blessing. 

[DuWayne Steurer]

bunting with Renfroe just stupid. taking one of your chances to score away.

urias strikes out, making the bunt utterly pointless.

[jason21nl]

Boo the ever loving crap out of this awful ass team 

[adambr2]

Urias has been among many massive disappointments.

[yourout]

Such a bad hitting team.

[mtsportsfan]

It seems the only way can score is they walk a run in , rarely do we get the big hit lately !

[HarryDoyle]

Urias should've leaned into ball 3.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This group needs to go away. It's been a good run lately as a fan and even this year, they're around 10 over .500 which for most of my life would have been a godsend. But they're miserable to watch. They could be sitting OK right now without choking two games away to Miami in the final week of the year. 

Even if they win they need to sweep and see Philly drop 2. 

It's fine, I'll be back in the spring...but this year's team gives me ZERO "what could have been" feeling. It's been very consistent watching how they lose.

They are who we thought they were. This is the appropriate ending.
