Brewers (Peralta) vs Twins (Lopez): 7/20/24, 6:10pm

[wildcat83]

Good Freddy showing up is hopefully a start to a great second half for him!

[duewizard]

Atta boy Freddy. Would love an insurance run or ten

[HappyWineGuy]

Your underperformers are both pitching well

He'd be our best starter and not by a little.

Not really. He and Freddy have been pretty much the same career-wise. 4.02 ERA/14.8 fWAR vs. 3.87 ERA/13.9 fWAR.

[BruisedCrew]

Peralta grinds his way through 6 scoreless innings. 

Now need 3 more from the bullpen.

 

[Brian]

ATL need to beat those darn Cards.

[wibadgers23]

Hoskins is just giving us absolutely nothing offensively.  It's really sad.

Indeed they are.

I keep thinking he’s going to pull out of it and… he doesn’t. 

[HarryDoyle]

Somebody tell Murphy it's not 1978. Enough of the sac bunts.

[yourout]

Mitchell has the best chin on the team. 

Very manly.

This is the sentence I came here to type

More of this in the 2nd half from Freddy

Hoping our four starters (Peralta, Civale, Rea, Myers) can each put up quality starts in a regular basis

I don’t hate a bunt in that situation. I wouldn’t have called for it but I don’t hate it, either. 

[Bulldogboy]

You can't be bunting when the guys coming up can't hit. Frelick is a better bet to hit than Hoskins or Mitchell. 

[Brewcrew82]

Hudson for 2? They've been shying away from that lately, but unless they put up some runs next inning looks like that's what we're going to get.

Sure looks like it's going to take a shut out to win

[HappyWineGuy]

This home Ump is not good.

Sure helps when you get a guy you can trot out on the mound once a week that's almost a sure win.

Pirates have won 8 of their last 9 and Skenes only pitched the one against the Brewers. They have some other good pitchers and some hot hitters too. 

They have played the Brewers tough this year. I wouldn’t write them off.

I think he's been pretty good overall. 

[edfunderburk]

Freddy out after six innings & 102 pitches

[yourout]

I hate late inning walks.

I though it was Murphy, like a cartoon character.

I do as well. And early inning walks. Not too fond of mid inning walks either.

Two questionable strikes that favored us. He is not good.

I think they used murph's face for the bad guy and this Alan Parsons video.
