Piggyback to perfection so far!

[Frisbee Slider]

If Priester gets out of the 7th with fewer than 50 pitches, do you send him out for the 8th?

Nice comeback from Priester after the leadoff dinger.  With a 3 run lead and rain imminent just throw strikes....

I'm hoping the tarp comes out before it's an issue.

Ortiz is rough

[RobertCrawley]

No, Joey. Dont put the ball in play.

[umphrey]

Priester kind of blows. I get the appeal, ground ball pitcher, lots of control, top prospect, big innings eater. But at the end of the day I think he’s just a failed high draft pick. 

[Bulldogboy]

Ortiz has to be pinch hit for in that situation. He's not good enough. They needed that run

[Pugger]

Hi guys.  Hubby and I have been on the road and are now moved in an apartment at UWGB for the summer.  Sorry we missed the 2 walk off games against the Red Sox.

[markedman5]

Priester doing his good version of Adrien Houser imitation……..that was nice.

I disagree. He changes speeds well. Has a fastball that gets up around 96 with movement. He's a good 4 or 5 MLB pitcher.

Clean work by Priester tonight. The poggyback might be a good idea with him. 

Murphy please don't bring Uribe in, let him rest

Priester has ten appearances for Milwaukee. Two were bad (Cardinals and Cubs). Eight were good or fine. 🤷‍♂️

OH YELLI AGAIN!

[markedman5]

Yelie! 
 

I only asked for 1!

[Brewer77]

Christian Yelich can’t stop going yard

[RobertCrawley]

Who is that guy?

Did you get a car?

Uribe and Koenig dry humping in the rain?

[titletownking]

One more time for Mr. Yelich

What an odd response to such a gritty performance tonight

[Brewer77]

Nice to see the top of the order finally doing the heavy lifting

Not to pile on, but even before tonight I feel like this is a bad take. The Brewers obviously see something they like. Since the trade he's eaten a lot of innings and seems to be getting better and more comfortable and there's tons of team control there.

Interesting move stating with priester here.    I hope they don’t get burned and put megill in anyways
