Brewers (Ross) vs Marlins (Weathers): 5/20/24, 5:40pm

[yourout]

Been a while since I saw a brewer steal home on a throw back to the pitcher.

 

[HarryDoyle]

I've thought in the past if I would ever see a straight steal of home ever again. Wild!

Been a while since I've seen that move at all, regardless of level.

Yeli knew Adames was gonna strike out.

Old man Yelich still can create havoc on the paths...

HAVOC on the paths.

[Gump]

Yelich man…stealing home. hahaha. That was great. Takes nuts to do that too. 

[torts]

Yelichs WAR just went up 2

[HarryDoyle]

Some guy I was sitting next to at the bar Saturday told me Yelich is the best base runner in baseball. I believe him.

At least he's doing it quickly. He's made three outs on six pitches tonight. He must need to be somewhere.

He might be the least productive cleanup hitter in baseball.

Because he had a bad week? Tough crowd

There are 29 other teams in MLB. Time to have Ortiz and Turang play middle infield.

This team is snake-bitten in their starting rotation 

It is a crime to not have traded for or signed more starters 

Signed:

1. Wade Miley
2. Joe Ross
3. Jakob Junis
4. Colin Rea (he technically was a FA on 11/1/23 and resigned on 11/2/23)

Traded for:

5. DL Hall

They literally signed or traded for an entire starting rotation. 

[RobertCrawley]

Wiemer swings so hard he looks like he's trying to twist his upper body away from his lower body.

I wish he's shorten his swing a little and protect the plate more with 2 strikes. This is not a new criticism, I know.

[MoreTrife]

It's to the point I feel irritation and anger towards Wiemer for having all the tools and being so bad at hitting.

[Bulldogboy]

Weimer 😆

He is OPSing .722

Doesnt exactly scream cleanup.

Not saying they should dump him.

[Bulldogboy]

You have to question how Weimer got to this point with his mechanics. I coach JV baseball and he couldn't play for me.

[edfunderburk]

If you had told me before the game started that the Brewers would be up 2-0 going into the bottom of the 7th inning …

I would have assumed Ross pitched exceptionally well 

I would NOT have anticipated that Montesario homered or that Yelich stole home 

That’s baseball ⚾️ 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Adames is who he has always been...will carry a lineup a couple weeks 2-3x a season, then also spend at least the same amount of time being a lineup black hole.

 

The problem is he isn't hitting 7th everyday

I am more irritated that his crappy mechanics were not addressed in the minors. I dont care that he could hit "Throwers" in the minors. He needs to be able to hit "Pitchers"

Not one of those guys was projected as anything other than bottom of the rotation starters without the ability to pitch anywhere near 200 innings. This rotation is Freddy and a bunch of 5th starters.

He should have been traded before the season started

At least we can stop debating whether he is worth signing long term.
