Why is Sanchez allowed to challenge when batting?

I think we’ve figured out by now that Sanchez is just going to challenge whenever he wants and the team allotment of challenges means nothing to him.

Apparently Murphy is unwilling or incapable of having a hard conversation with a veteran player

Maybe he thinks challenges are unlimited?

Based on how close the pitches are, it doesn't seem like the location of the pitch means anything to him either.

Should we nickname him Data?

[edfunderburk]

Glad he’s not hurt

Glad he got HBP

I had zero confidence in Yelich there with two outs

Hopefully, Chourio can get us the lead here

[eli.durie30]

We missed a run by an inch... Cool

[eli.durie30]

15 Left on Base

[edfunderburk]

Ortiz deserved better 

Brewers with no luck today

Hope Drohan can get another inning (or more) & depart today with a quality start 

[eli.durie30]

This is ridiculous Brew Crew

[Bulldogboy]

Chourio outside of playoffs is kinda anti clutch

[yourout]

Reynolds is a Hall of famer against us.

[eli.durie30]

Dont give him another one please

[Bulldogboy]

We have 9 relievers

Perfect bunt and Yelich still thrown out. His physical abilities are gone and this will be a long next 2.5 years

I couldn't believe Yelich was out on that. Like absolutely could not believe it. That was a perfect bunt, off the bat I thought that was a surefire hit. 

Not only can he not hit any more, but he's also losing his wheels rapidly.

Another reason I don’t want the Brewers to “go big” at the trade deadline: 

Why trade away top prospects (5-6 years of control) for a short-term arm or bat IF Murphy continues to shove Yelich out there to leadoff as our DH. That decision alone will keep the Brewers from getting past NL contenders (especially the Dodgers) - no matter who we acquire via trade.

PNC is such a beautiful ballpark.

i wonder if Yelich would accept half his remaining contract as a buyout and retire.  It can’t be fun anymore to be this bad.

he seems like a good dude, but the guy is just flat out washed.

How about we go triple big.  Jettison Murphy, and then get some good players with a manager who knows how to use the 

i’m not sure what Yelich brings to this team other than being a good clubhouse guy.

Vaughn has been dog water lately.   And Yelich can go away 

dog water. what's that? like dog pee or what? 

[Bulldogboy]

Cubs win tonight and Brewers lose tomorrow all of a sudden they are 5 back feeling great at the break.

I dont get why you pinch hit for your 2 best hitters.  

there's this thing called lefty-righty splits.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Need some late-inning offense. Brewers have been a good team at scoring in the 7th Inning or after. Keep that trend going.

They are behind early all the time in games.    I’m at some point that is going to burn you.    You can’t expect to come back and win all the time.
