Brewers (Myers) vs Cardinals (Gibson): 8/21/24, 6:45pm

[Joseph Zarr]

Put it this way:

At least you didn't have to watch the Shuckers play baseball tonight.

Believe me, your game was 10x better no matter the result. 🤷‍♂️

That's all I got. Proceed to overreact.

Now the Brewers only have a 11 game lead in the central! 

No one is worried about the division. The division is won. 

But any loss like this is a brutal blow to their chances of a top 2 seed.

No I just wonder what the point was in coming into an in-game thread in probably the most frustrating loss of recent memory (last 2 months) and throwing some shade at people being upset at Williams staying in far too long.

You can post whatever you want. I can also post and wonder what the hell your point or purpose was in making that post. 

lol, goodnight. try to get more than 4 hours of sleep tonight so you are rested for tomorrow my guy.

Then again, it’s not like Megill was terribly effective either. If the team knew he wasn’t ready and activated him hoping they wouldn’t have to use him, I’m just at a loss. Something doesn’t add up. Either roster management or in-game management failed horrifically.

One game does not a trend make. But now we’re on trend watch.

Megill wins that game.    And even if you don’t pitch him at the beginning I bet he gets Pham out

We are trying to get a top 2 seed. This doesn't help that...

Nor does it change that, at a minimum, there were questionable managerial decisions and the better pieces of the pen got blasted.

If Williams threw a 1-2-3 no one here would be complaining about going to Williams 

I have no issue pitching Williams, but you can’t leave him in after the 4 pitch walk to make it 6-5.  It was painfully obvious he had no control at that point.  Murphy asked him if he was ok, which is even dumber, no closer in the history of ever is going to say nah come get me…

1) If the sky rained beer my grocery budget would be lighter.

2) If Devin keeps getting used like this, and started losing it down the stretch, these arguments would be back. The point is, we shouldn’t have to lean on Devin this hard. No one would second-guess Murphy for saying Devin was down tonight, even if Mevill came in and blew the save.

What a stupid post. Which is par for you. 

Hours of sleep has no bearing on telling you you're being passive aggressive. Your initial post in this thread wasn't called for, I pointed it out, and you're taking your ball and going home.

Buh bye. Get sleep yourself. Or don't.. don't care either way.

So I guess Murphy should have gotten Williams out of the game yesterday as well right? My god you guys are all a bunch of babies.

WILLIAMS HASNT PITCHED UNTIL END OF JULY! You’re gonna need him in October pitching multiple days in a row in high stressed appearances. My god

Brutal. Manager loss.

What am I missing here?   Our best closer couldn't find the plate.  Chit happens.

Always a cool move to resort to name calling when other opinions differ from your own.

Seriously? The Brewers haven’t lost more than 4 games all year. It’s one game. Literally one game

Right, and no one came out to get him when it was obvious he couldn't find the plate.

You sound like a barrel of fun.,..

[kevinisaname]

How do you block people again? Sorry for asking, but I don't see it.

[SeaBass]

Devin definitely should not have pitched tonight, should most definitely have been pulled after the first 4 pitch walk that forced in a run and they still had the lead. 

That all said this team was due for a blown game, pity it seemed fairly avoidable. No guarantees Megill gets the job done if they pulled Devin earlier but I'd rather have seen that happen.

Bad loss, on to the next.

No, did he walk anyone on 4 straight yesterday and look like he had zero command at any point?  Two totally different situations.

Nah it’s just funny how everyone always second guess managerial decisions. At least have the balls to say something before the inning starts 

[wiguy94]

I honestly don't know what Contreras is looking at behind the plate when it comes to his pitch calls. Arenado was late on every FB he swung at that inning, has been absolutely dreadful against 98+mph FB this year, and has absolutely crushed curveballs this year. Why on earth are you calling a curveball there? Yeah Megill hung it and that's on him, but I have serious question marks about his pitch calling.

More stupidity. Not only can you not read, you also can't communicate. 

Sad.

So if a starting pitcher comes into the first inning and walks a couple people should he be pulled? Williams has proven himself time in and time out that he gets out of jams even if he doesn’t have control or his best stuff

All of my responses have been about baseball, and pretty rational…

Nah, this is one of those "I come in with rationality after the fact" posters.
