Miller can’t come fast enough 

[jason21nl]

Unreal how these guys can’t throw strikes right now

[adambr2]

Throw freaking strikes !

[Frisbee Slider]

Big 3-2 pitch coming…

[kevinisaname]

Almost a complete disaster, but he gets out of it. Profar helps again by swinging at ball four.

[jason21nl]

Just keep getting out of it!

[Frisbee Slider]

Mears hangs a zero 🙂

[jjfanec]

Never a doubt

 

[HarryDoyle]

Brewers pitchers working out of jams all night long.

[Brian]

Wow lucky we got out of that.

[folly412]

Uncharacteristic inning for Mears.  But a characteristic bad inning is giving up a bomb, so I'll take it.

[Frisbee Slider]

1-0 Reds

I mean I get watching him can be eye rolling... but big deep breath here friends.

Freddy is top 20 in the league in ERA (which is now flirting to go below 3). He is top 20 in SO. He is top 20 in opponents BA against. He definitely walks guys (11th) but because no one hits him his WHIP is still top 20 in baseball. Wins are a whatever stat but he leads the league in them and has an outside chance of being the first 20 game winner for Milwaukee since the Raegan administration...

... and he is making $8 million dollars a year...

.. and he doesn't get hurt.

Where else are you going to find a pitcher under 30 who will put up that stat line and only cost you that much who will take the ball every 5th day? (BTW, tied for 23rd in MLB in innings pitched coming into tonight)

We have been blessed this year with such great pitching that we are allowing ourselves to pick him apart when he has been a rock for us. He was the MVP of the team through the first two months outside of MAYBE Sal.

Monster truck type haul for him in the off season only ... otherwise he is here to try for the repeat and we trade him during or give him a QO after the year.

Freddy is frustrating but he is awesome.

He’s had a great Brewers career
I hope he is traded this offseason

Both of these can be true

Yeah but some people let agendas get in the way of reality. Great post

Brutal AB by Durbin.

Maybe Seigler should be playing more 😏

LOL, If Durbin keeps it up he will. 

[kevinisaname]

Great ABs by Yeli and Vaughn. Let's get a salami, eh?

[kevinisaname]

I'll take a base hit!

[Brian]

And a shot up the middle by Collins. 

[folly412]

ROY Collins

[markedman5]

I have no words for Collins…..🫡

[HarryDoyle]

Was Collins a huge prospect? Because he's playing like one.

Totally agree. Wonderful career, extremely durable, incredible value based on his contract. But I absolutely hate watching games he pitches. I'd love to sign Woody and say goodbye to Freddy. It's fine if he's back but just don't ask me to enjoy the product.
