Not even a little bit....

That thing was launched. 

The launch angle in this gif would suggest a pop up to 1st base.

Murphy was reading the IGT from two months ago. You know… talking about how Ortiz sucks sooooo bad?

He did suck though…

And two months from now he will read this IGT and start him in the playoffs when his momentum will be killed.

Come on Bill. That was easily a strike. Gotta catch it better for the call, gotta challenge if you don’t. 

[RobertCrawley]

Not wild about getting Grant Anderson in the game.

The Brewers only ask for challenges they will lose.

They are the worst.

The music gives up the location of the ball on the hat shuffle.  

[adambr2]

I’m gonna be fair this homeplate ump has been pretty solid. 

[JCREW]

what kind of Hitler haircut does this ump have?

[TURBO]

I'm sure Joey is pretty happy about losing playing time while he was on a heater for a few weeks.

Looks like they are 21st in total challenges and 21st in success rate.   Not great.

The maddening thing about prioritizing PT for Bunty is Murf essentially force fed us all Joey O at SS AB's for over an entire season. He finally starts showing us his best form at 3B in all facets. THEN they turn him into a last leg of a platoon? For Bunty?!?

I think your answer was included in your question

On a heater offensively. Plays better defense. Left out of starting lineup. Not the typical line of thinking.

[RobertCrawley]

We won a challenge. How about them apples?

[edfunderburk]

I complain a lot about Murphy’s “in game decisions” so I want to compliment him for choosing to let Drohan pitch the sixth inning & get a quality start. 

[wallus]

Drohan is a quality #5

His ERA is in the low threes and his expected stats line up pretty close to his results. He might be a quality #3 on a lot of squads.

Including ours, right now, arguably. #4 when Harrison's back.

Just checked fangraphs. He has a 3.51 ERA. Including pitchers with 70 or more innings, he would have the best ERA on 6 teams. 

[adambr2]

That’s probably top 5 worst ABs of the year, Garrett.

How are we as high as 21? Is there a current playoff team that's worse?
