Well, his injuries certainly didn’t make him tap his head like a doofus in the first, 

Injuries can certainly take you off your game.  Seems like that challenge was out of character for him especially that early in the game.  Perhaps he feels he needs that slight edge.  Hes had a few real piss poor games as of late.  I’m Just making excuses for him at this point.

Clay Holmes missed all year with a broken leg and has a player option for 2027. Big gamble acquiring him. If he sucks or gets injured he assuredly exercises his player option . 

Well he hasn’t sucked, he isn’t hurt, and if the worst happens, it’s $12M, kind of peanuts in the scheme of MLB money.

To Amaya?? He was right, that was a ball. He was wrong when he called a later one a strike 

stacast showed strike and even the dumb Brian Anderson commented on the next pitch he called a strike in a similar spot

I always thinks it's funny when people complain the announcer is too nice to the other team. Completely indifferent on BA leaving though. Strongly prefer Levering.

Harrison has sucked since Las Vegas. Guy would have a 4 era if not for getting a gift in San Diego 

His whip at home is 0.86 and his whip on the road is 1.45.

I don't know that I want him starting a road playoff game

Jumping off he Cubs bats anyway

But he did give up four runs in four innings to Kansas City....

Not just any team, the damn rivals. BA is just out of touch. And at this point, Levering is damn good at his job and deserves the full time gig.

I agree. You have to line him up to pitch at home. 

The problem is if you’re at home that means Henderson doesn’t pitch til Game 3 and you’re not going to get him again in a 5 game series.

Yelich 3 run bomb

That sounds like just an average Sunday afternoon for May.

I think there might be some disagreement about whether May was the best pitcher available at the deadline after Skubal. 

I mean, he's pitching fine.  But Holmes doesn't seem like he takes much pride in his hair, and I haven't seen one overly dramatic, flamboyant body language all game.

Absolutely atrocious, immature AB by Yelich.

Or he strikes out on back to back complete balls

[82brewcrew82]

OMG, what a horrible at bat.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Putrid Yelich

 

Just brutal - dont even go up there with a bat and you're standing on 1st

Or just another pathetic AB.  Cant wait until he’s gone.  Thanks for the awesome couple years.  Now go away.

Tons of clueless at bats. Chourio looked bad, Turang, Frelick, and Yelich. Just unprofessional AB’s  

[Opening Day]

Im so glad Vaughn isnt in the lineup so I can see Yelich come through in the clutch.  Your best hitter needs to sit in a shootout like this.

[adambr2]

Lara has 100 times more mature ABs than Yelich just had and he’s 21 years old.

What I get for trying to exert an ounce of optimism for tonight 

[jason21nl]

Hahahahaha.  Laughable 

[Fear The Chorizo]

He's throwing upper 80s junk that cant stay in the strike zone and the Brewers are making him look like Nolan Ryan
