Someone will need to explain to me again how this trash can was even worth a waiver claim, much less giving up 2 pieces for. 

[willie key]

Easily the worst trade deadline that I can remember.     What a joke

[HarryDoyle]

I don't know why we just didn't concede the sweep and taken a second All Star break.

Hopefully this is over by the fifth inning like last night because I'm exhausted and could use the extra sleep tonight.

Heck, this might be over in the next few batters.

I'm glad we have Montas, who likely won't even make it through 4 IP this time.

[HarryDoyle]

I predict the bottom of the inning will be over in four minutes.

[jason21nl]

What an absolute joke

[folly412]

At least we kept the farm system intact at the trade deadline for the Timber Rattlers, Mudcats, and maybe Shuckers playoff runs.

[brewers888]

It’s not second guessing everyone besides Arnold apparently knew this guy sucked.

[adambr2]

Like, how do you even get excited for the playoffs after getting exposed this badly by an actual contender?

[umphrey]

My favorite part of the Montas trade was sending money to the Reds while also taking on this $16M contract (blue)

Plenty of people here were going out of their way to tell us this wasn't a bad deal at all. I wonder if they still feel the same way.

In the spirit of the thread, we could have at least tried to see what the pitching lab could do with Sheets at this point? I'll acknowledge shifting the mechanics can take a bit, but how many more starts before you move on and just write it off as the high risk move that didn't work (and hope there is no long term regret)

[yfinn6]

C'mon, need runs here.

Sometimes I think GMs make moves just to say they made a move even knowing it likely is crap.

[jason21nl]

Ha!   This team….

[yourout]

Blocking the base without the ball.

[HarryDoyle]

Sometimes you just have to laugh.

Or cry...

[HarryDoyle]

Murphy needs to get ejected there and get his money's worth doing it.

[jason21nl]

I’m not looking for the umpire to bail us out.  The throw took him there.  Do better.  

[NewerBrewer]

Yikes...

[kevinisaname]

We suck again.

[Brewcrew82]

Difference between a good team and a great team....
