[RobertCrawley]

We have been awful running bases in the past few games.

[Bulldogboy]

Another pick off? Wow has that happened a ton

We have been awful running bases overall this entire season!

[Bulldogboy]

Cost them a run

[adambr2]

I don’t understand being overly aggressive against teams that you should be able to beat without being overly aggressive. Let’s not beat ourselves, huh?

Not always. It's actually one of our strengths, putting pressure on defenses with good base running. The last few games we're making bad mistakes.

[HarryDoyle]

Really no reason to steal on Dana. Lost a run doing that.

[kevinisaname]

Got one, but what a frustrating inning. It should have been a lot more.

Actually 2 runs.

Should have been more. RISP has not been our friend lately.

[adambr2]

It took a reverse Houdini act to come out of that inning with only 1 run.

Wish Vaughn was swinging 3-0

[kevinisaname]

C'mon, Fred. Can't walk a guy hitting .192.

[Bulldogboy]

35 pitches in already.

Freddy can walk anyone … he loves throwing non-competitive pitches

It's worse elsewhere, fwiw.

Nothing new … five inning Freddy … wasting far too many pitches 

[Scooterfletcher]

Adell would be a good bat to trade from some prospect surplus in the off season,   A dream trade would be opening the farm system up quite a bit for both Adell AND Zack Neto but that would be pretty unlikely.  

[kevinisaname]

A lot of pitches through two, but he got out of it. Struck out the side again. This is going to be five innings at most.

Little bit of BABIP bad luck too

But 0 runs. That's the main thing.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Should the rest of the brewers' defense just stay in the dugout?

Maybe have them put it in play to get more than 5 innings out of the 110 pitches you're about to throw, Freddy.

You would have to convince the Angels to trade them and Adell is nothing special.  Basically you would have to give them Chourio, Miz, Turang and Frelick for Neto then Made, Pena and Quero for Adell.  The Angels are not interested in trading anyone really.

Ortiz better put this damn ball in play 

 

edit: he didn’t but that was a damn good pitch 

[kevinisaname]

Yeesh, Joey... at least put the ball in play.
