Did that really just happen?  My god, I hope someone tells him to clean it up should he get back into another game.   

He's barely tolerable with a 0 ERA for us, as soon as he gives up a run he can hit the bricks.

Six man rotations don’t work well.
A short overworked bullpen can be disastrous. 

This 6 man rotation with a short pen is just not working.

If you need the 6 man rotation, why not just go with a man down on the bench? Lockridge never gets used anyway.

Man alive, you guys were sure hard on Lyon...

Holy moly.

He got the job done, I have no idea what sparked that kind of hate immediately.

Just because of his toothpick and jersey?

Geez, he's a Brewer, I hope he just comes out and kicks butt every time he pitches, toothpick and everything!

Aren't they at the max you can have for pitchers on a roster?  I know there is a limit.

Maybe it wouldn't have been close but I wish Chourio would've tried to stretch it into a double for the exact reason of what Bauers just did.  Maybe he's out by a mile but you're most likely not losing a ton of win probability even if he is.

Not allowed to roster more than 13 pitchers.

Same here. If the Cubs don't gain ground on the Brewers this week then they probably never will. This is their chance.

Have to find a way to win at least two games.

Or you can option guys to give them a 10-15 day break.  Gasser starts a few games and gets sent down.  Drohan starts a few and gets sent down.  Henderson starts a few and gets sent down.

Since June 1st we are 23rd. 

But, but, best record in baseball...

We are going to have to find a better gear soon, or it will be a quick exit from the playoffs, no matter who we face.

Then we shouldn’t be using a 6 man rotation.

Manfred can roster some nuts in his mouth.

anyone else listen to the games? I miss Uek, I just don't like the guys who call our games. 

I usually listen to maybe 10-15 games per season on the radio, but this season, in honor of the legend, I'm not listening...

Or piggy back.  Easy way to control innings and pitch counts is have a couple guys on a 5 day schedule for 3-4 innings.

Piggy backing could work better than what we are trying to do.
