Do we send Miz back out there for second inning?

Gotta get through the 1st before we can worry about that. 

[Brewer77]

Time to repeat the Ashby debut game

[BruisedCrew]

It feels like 2008 all over again.

Can probably find something else to do tonight.  What are the odds we score a bunch of runs against Boyd.

Awkward to have sent Myers down today.

Miserable

Well, what were the odds the Cubs were going to score a bunch of runs against the Miz?

No.

I don't think we're scoring three, much less four, against Boyd.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I was pretty worried about Miz tonight. Easy to say now. 

Really, he's just gotta make that throw. 

Got out of it with 3, so hold them here and hope we grind as well as the Cubs did that inning. They put together good ABs.

[Sixtolezcano]

Looks like the Miz only goes 1 inning tonight

If I were a betting man, I'd take the Cubs offense every time over the Brewers.

Absolutely. This is part of the learning process, and this is far from a must-win game.

It’s about his arm health too, though. A 40 pitch inning in 1 inning isn’t like being at 40 pitches through 3.

[Pugger]

Well I suppose it could have been worse....

[willie key]

It’s kind of tough having  a starting pitcher that has such a low pitch count limit.   He’s probably done after next inning

[edfunderburk]

I was hoping for a great outing from Misiorowski tonight, but I can’t say I’m surprised by this early result. I read an article where he appeared to be quite nonchalant … “I don’t prepare for an opponent - I just prepare myself” … which I guess means - “I throw the ball really fast & hope the other guys can’t hit it hard.”

He’s young & incredibly talented, but he isn’t a great pitcher yet (like Woodruff). That’s to be expected. He looks to be in over his head against this superior Cubs lineup. 

I hate that he was lined up to start this important series. Could be a long & disappointing evening. I’ve been anticipating this series for a few weeks. This is a terrible start.

Higher!

Not the way to bust up the bullpen so early in this series... but all things considered maybe Miz is 1 and done tonight? Save those innings. Unfortunate Myers went down today ... he would be great to have right now.

[yfinn6]

I don't think there's any point to giving him another inning. We'll see.

I kinda wondered if Miz was going to come crashing back to earth tonite...

[markedman5]

One ball hit hard……and it was on the ground.

Foolish actually 

[liveforoctober]

winning tonight is going to be so satisfying..

[Pugger]

Was Myers sent down or is he hurt?
