Brewers (Peralta) vs Reds (Martinez): PPD to 8/30

[Brock Beauchamp]

Freddy's back on the mound as the Brewers try to win a four-game series on the road against the Reds.

Reds will continue their swoon starting at noon!

Brewers will have us yelling hip-hip-hooray throughout the day!

A 3 ERA beats a 7 ERA -- let's play!

[treego14]

Oh, the dread of a Red facing Fred ...

Not enough words can be said.

Let's play through the rain ...

so we can inflict maximum pain!

Does Perkins get another start? He has been awesome the past couple games. 

Where are we on Bauers, I don't like that he has more AB's than guys like Ortiz and Perkins but his defense has been superb. I like the player and fit but he needs to hit, especially with Black not far off. 

What about moving Contreras down to #4? Adames and Rhys aren't quite hot enough to be clean up. I like sound of 1)Sal LF 2)Chourio RF 3)Yeli DH 4)C Contreras 5)SS Willy 6)2B Turang 7)1B Rhys 8)CF Perkins 9)3B Ortiz (or Dunn)

I'd be hesitant to move Contreras and Yelich around at all as they seemed to have found grooves and the offense is scoring runs. I know it may not be a big deal and I said it in another thread, but maybe there's something to plugging an individual into a spot in the lineup and just leaving them there.

This game has been postponed until August 30th as part of a double header. Glad they called it early

[Brock Beauchamp]

Boooo, postponement.

Both the Twins and Brewers have been postponed so what was looking to a very pleasant afternoon working has turned into watching the Braves and Mets play, something it would be hard for me to care less about.

In the middle of a 13-straight-game stretch, this PPD comes at about the best possible time to be honest. Get the pen and legs fresh for Baltimore.

Great point. Let's take this as a positive and go beat Burnes.

Lindor has a .370 OPS? Oh my, that's just awful.
