Nice by Q. We needed this big time

Is that his fault or no? Or is that the manager who keeps putting him out there?

If the manager can't put him in there, what is the purpose of having him on the team.

Your defense of a guy that can’t field or hit is laughable.   

Nah it’s hilarious people bashing him when in October we have a more rested Durbin who hasn’t played a full regular season 

[liveforoctober]

6 from Quintana is awesome.

[kevinisaname]

Can Q give us another inning or is that all? Either way, fantastic outing.

Yeah, because that's a comparison they were making.

 

Joey is an elite defensive player. Seigler is a AAAA player, at best, and not a good defender.

How do you know he’s not a good defender??

[ClosetBrewerFan]

I still think Seigler could be a good role player, but I've hit my limit for this year.  Time to swap him and Bauers for Black and Hoskins.  Let's give Durbin full time work.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I'll say this about Bauers:

He LOOKS like he can hit. It's a nice stance.

I have eyes.

Because I’m not blind 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Hoskins and Black fill out this roster so much more than Bauers and Seigler

[Simba2020]

You really do have to love how anybody can justify playing Seigler with an OPS below .500 vs. righties over Durbin with an OPS above .700 against said righties.

Soon?

It's really something. I've never seen so many people come to his defense. I'm not sure what I am not seeing that they are. 

[82brewcrew82]

i hate bader

[HarryDoyle]

Mono and Ortiz should probably be platooning at this point.

[Fear The Chorizo]

I feel like ive been waiting since Seigler first got called up for him to justify keeping himself in Milwaukee....

Still waiting, and frankly it's long past due to see if he can lead Nashville to big things down their stretch run

[jason21nl]

I mean if they’re not going to play Durbin then play Mona.   Seigler has absolutely no business seeing at bats ahead of either of them.  

[Fear The Chorizo]

Ok, lets get out of this inning without the game getting tight

The thing is there is no track record of this being the case. That makes it far easier for me to say goodbye. Now Monasterio?

None, slap in the face to both players.

Yeah, just don't look at his glove work at third this year. Sure, under 50 innings, but considering how bad it's been, you figure the org only sees him as the proverbial "break glass in case of emergency" option.

[kevinisaname]

Darnit.

[HarryDoyle]

Hasn't it been nice to not complain about the home plate umpire?
