I love Perkins - he’s one of our most valuable players in 2024

Haha yeah.  It’s all I had at the time.   

[Brewcrew82]

No way that's an error.

I'm actually terrified Murphy is going to run all of our LHP into the ground before the playoffs. He loves using our good LHP even in non-leverage situations. Like why are we using Koenig up 4 runs in the 8th inning when Wilson hasn't pitched in 4 days and Koenig pitched yesterday?

We win in spite of Murphy’s in game decisions - not because of them

It would be nice to see Misiorowski get a call soon. Great time with a nice lead to see if he can help. I am hoping he could be a Hader like weapon that you could use wherever you need a k like when he came up.

Brewers bullpen breaking out its Pirates imitation

Yep, and in the playoffs they don't need him to go 6. 

They might of this bullpen doesn't get back in line.

I don't have a good feeling about Payamps vs. Chapman. Murphy is running Koenig, Payamps, and company straight into the ground.

[wiguy94]

Bringing in Payamps with the 2 guys who had extremely hard contact off him yesterday due up is hilarious managing.

Today....not so much. It's almost like relievers can adjust.

[willie key]

If you can’t rely on your bullpen.   You can’t have success.    These guys have got to shut it down.     You aren’t going to do it every game.   But it has to be better than this

Careful, you might get a Trueblood article tomorrow telling you how that was unquestionably and unequivocally the correct and only decision.🤭

[wiguy94]

If the plan isn't use good RP today so they are available for the double header on Friday then I have no clue what this bullpen management from Murphy was today.

Have Wilson or Ashby pitch tomorrow regardless of leverage and then DFA/IL Wilson and/or option Ashby for the doubleheader I guess? If that's the plan it makes some sense although I still think Wilson could have pitched the 8th and been available to go multiple innings tomorrow.

Trueblood is a Cubs fan - can’t be trusted 

I wish he only wrote articles for their website 

I don’t read his material 

[wiguy94]

Getting some insurance runs would be nice. I really don't want a scenario where Yastrzemski gets on and Estrada is up as the tying run considering he's 2-2 with 2 HR in his career against Devin.

Nice guess.

Top 3 in the order only ones doing anything.

Pretty easy guess. 

Be glad when he's gone.

Nothing left in the tank.

Honestly think I'd rather Bauers start getting the starts at 1B against RHP. Hoskins underlying numbers are so poor.

[wntrtxn21]

Hoskins whiffs once again! Turang looked like a high school kid who just wanted to sit down.

Hoskins is 7 for 53 with 19k. Almost unplayable right now with his average at best defense.
