Reds (Singer) vs Brewers (E. Rodriguez): 4/5/25, 6:10pm

[edfunderburk]

This team feels more like the 2023 Brewers than the 2024 Brewers 

Our losses are brutal from a fan’s perspective 

Even our wins are ugly baseball

True or False?

The Brewers will not have a positive run differential at any time this season.

Is the scoreboard OK?

I don’t know how they could

111 exit velo is pretty high.

Yelich and Contreras are really hurting this offense. Honestly, it is hard not to be thrilled at being 4-5, assuming this one goes bad. Winning three one-run games is a boost.

Contreras looks like he's guessing on every pitch. His swings are awful.  Time to end the Rodriguez experiment and DFA him or send him down to do mop-up in Nashville. 

[edfunderburk]

How much of this is Contreras calling all fastballs?

I don’t recall a Brewers team giving up so many HRs - it’s like batting practice 

[TURBO]

Down 5-0, I'd make Rodriguez wear this one and save the bullpen for tomorrow as much as possible.  Bring Thomas in to put the icing on the cake.

[Bulldogboy]

Bro... enough already.

Must be the bats.

I agree maybe you can't always blame the pitcher.

You would think Murphy would be intelligent enough to put a lineup together that has his 3 and 4 batters with BAs above 0.100. 
 

Wake up Murphy pull your pitcher.

[edfunderburk]

Murphy’s look from the dugout isn’t helpful 

He looks perplexed as if “I don’t know what to do”

 

[yfinn6]

Everything is middle-middle. 

[yourout]

Kind of expected this. I knew the reds were eventually going to get there bats to come to life and they started stinging it a bit late yesterday

[edfunderburk]

Can’t a pitcher shake off a catcher if all he calls is fastball fastball fastball

Contreras never walks out to talk to the pitcher to slow things down to re group. 

[yfinn6]

What bothers me more than the Reds teeing off, is that no one in our lineup right now is capable of thumping the ball. Even the guys who should are so far off from doing that, you just wonder how these guys are going to keep getting single after single and beat many teams. 

You assume these guys will get going but even when they do, there's still a lot of slap hitters in the lineup.

This one is over

Keep Rodriguez in there for six innings & let Conner Thomas pitch three innings to close out another blow out loss 

Save the bullpen for tomorrow & next week
