Sanchez can hit some rockets.

Would have done a really hard play but it could have easily been a tough luck double play. 

Need to capitalize.

Except suddenly that last one and Ortiz 4-1 Brewers.

[82brewcrew82]

Double thump!  Nice to have that power from the nine spo.........oh wait.........

[HarryDoyle]

Get Civale out of there now before he gives up the lead.

[folly412]

Forget we were against a pitcher dominating lately and not someone with an ERA of 7.  This is  when the runs come!

Lol, I totally wasn't writing about him grounding into a double play...

[yourout]

Need to keep piling on because I think they might need them tonight.

15 minutes into the game and 3 players should be benched/traded and we need a new coach LOL.

He's been DFAed twice in his career already.  It's not like it would be a shocking move. 

They gave up two decent pitching prospects for him less than a month ago, so yes, I think it would be a shocking move for the Brewers.  I had assumed getting Mears was a longer term thing since his numbers this year were not all that impressive at the time of the trade.  It seemed like they thought they could make some tweaks to fix him and that usually takes longer than a month to come to realization.

Skynet...

 

[adambr2]

Sure thing ump, give him a BS 2-0 strike. Cool beans.

If he doesn't perform, which he hasn't, they won't have much of a choice. I don't think they gave up anything that they'd be too stubborn to just cut their losses on. 

[yourout]

Nickel...

[jason21nl]

Some absolute rockets hit this inning

[adambr2]

Should be there 1st and 2nd and nobody out 

 

And should be now 6 on the board.

 

Not that 5 is a problem, but damn do I hate MLB umps.

Which means we will hang 8 runs on him. 

That's how baseball works.

Almost there.  😀
