It is beyond frustrating to see guys like Rengifo, Hamilton, and Perkins continue to see MLB at-bats when we have 2-3 really good young MLB ready options available in Nashville.

Ortiz belongs on the above list too but I’ll give him a pass today.

He sucks too

[yourout]

Wonder what the average number of strike call overturns in an MLB game is?

4 or 5?

Agreed.  That trio needs to go.   If we’re 15 games under .500 and the kids aren’t ready I understand.

actually, I don’t.  In a winning franchise, washed vets don’t get repeated chances. Let the young guys play

It's a long season. We're doing ok right now.

Closer to two.

[BruisedCrew]

Tough series for Turang.

2 for 12 with 5K.

[RobertCrawley]

Garrett is ready to hit the ski slopes with those shades.

Brewers have the 4th youngest roster in MLB and made the playoffs 7 of 8 years.  I get the frustration with the guys who aren't producing and got it last year with Ortiz in particular.  The young guys play in the Brewers organization, and it's a winning franchise.  You want them to bring up Lara and others, fine and I wouldn't mind it either but come on.

Fair….  But we’re about going to be approaching the 1/3 of the way mark.  It would be nice to give the kids a shot and chance to get established before we go bargain hunting in late July..

plus, every win we get now puts us in a better position for the playoff stretch run.

 

[RobertCrawley]

It's really bad when the ump does an energetic third strike call and it's overturned. 

[yourout]

That was a bad miss by blue.

Bring up one of the young guys to play third.    I get you don’t want to have a bunch of guys at once.    But enough is enough

If they are ready. I've learned to trust the organization about these things.

[RobertCrawley]

There we go. That's a good start to the inning.

[yfinn6]

Come on, Sal. That was pathetic. 

[yourout]

Poor weekend at moving runners over.

[Bulldogboy]

Frelick should have been bunting but alas he has a horrible ab

[RobertCrawley]

 King Vaughn time.

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

I forgot we had Vaughn available.   Almost wish we would have used him instead of Rengifo with two on and 1 out earlier, but I guess this works

[yourout]

Going to have to be better this week hitting with ducks on the pond.

[Bulldogboy]

Why not challenge strike one

[adambr2]

Now 0 for a billion with runners in scoring position this series. Haven’t double checked that number for accuracy but it’s reasonably close.

[yourout]

0 for 11 with RISP is the story today.
