Jose will bounce back today!
We will hack off Zack!
Littell after the game will feel Little,
Even if his pitches contain Spittle!

Curious to see this game played in a minor league stadium.

I wonder who will be added to the roster to replace Rodriguez

Probably one of Peguero or Hudson.

Elvis has five straight zeroes in his game log even if he is still walking too many guys over that stretch with 4 BB vs 5 K in 6 IP. Last pitched 0507.

Hudson was clean in his first three Nasvhille outings (4 K vs 0 BB in 3 IP) before getting roughed up for 3 ER on 0504 and not pitching since.

Of the other 40 Man options Henderson just threw 4 IP last night, Yoho just got sent down, don't think they'd want to pull Misio or Carlos Rodriguez from the rotation, and everybody else is hurt.

Maybe Easton McGee has been the best of the non-40 Man relievers, but not sure he's done enough to warrant the other roster finagling it would take to add him versus Elvis or Hudson.

I just saw on ESPN, Hudson and Mona back to MLB club, Capra DFA.

Why did they cut off that throw? I think that would have been close at home. Oh well, 1-0!

Nice job by Quintana to minimise the damage

[Underachiever]

Thank goodness for Quintana. 61 pitches through 5. One ER.

[RightFieldCoder]

Ortiz has been impressive defensively at short this year. Not making flashy plays but solid glive with a smoth arm. Wish he could hit.

This aged semi-poorly. It’s up to Mears now

[SomewhereInTime]

I don't like this quick hook at all.  Leave him in.

[yourout]

Not playing good baseball right now

Third base umpire should be fired on the spot.

[wiguy94]

Regardless of the ump call, I have no clue why Turang was throwing behind the runner on 3rd there. I literally watched the Carolina Mudcats have that exact same situation earlier this week and they handled it so much better despite being an infield made up of pretty much entirely infielders.

[BruisedCrew]

Some controversy about a call helps to deflect attention from how excruciatingly dull this offense is to watch. 

[BruisedCrew]

Back to back errors might put the game out of reach. 

[Underachiever]

Shaky as hell on defense tonight 

[RightFieldCoder]

Pitchers heeping the Brewers in the game.

[BruisedCrew]

Good job escaping that self inflicted jam. 

Now is there any chance to pick up 2 more runs tonight?

[BruisedCrew]

Contreras isn’t going to help the team on offense in his current condition  

If there’s something that could be done to get his finger back to full strength in 2 months it would make sense to do it. 

[Bulldogboy]

Why pull the righty for a lefty with a bunch of right hand bats coming up?

We have seen that the Brewers give him alot of leash with when he can play. He should probably sit and get it healthy. He's gonna get jammed like crazy now.

Good point.
