Yeah. Crazy work 

[Bulldogboy]

Having to throw Patrick and now Hall in a 9-0 game is egregious 

[wiguy94]

This offense is just not built to have success in this type of environment. Wind blowing out and the Cubs have 11 batted balls over 20 LA while the Brewers have 0. The 25-35 LA range is the sweet spot on a night like tonight. Cubs have 6 batted balls in that range for a single and 5 HR. The Brewers have zero.

Can position players really only pitch one inning? That seems dumb.

7th on when trailing. 8th on when winning.

[titletownking]

Zero earned runs from all pitchers not Kyle Harrison

[Bulldogboy]

Why not send Anderson down if he wasn't available today? He's gotta pitch in this game or it's a complete waste

I don't really understand artificially limiting how many innings they can go, but that's slightly better, I guess. If a team wants to punt in the 4th inning, I think you should let them.

If Turang doesn’t find his way toward some level of offensive competence by October we are not going anywhere. 

Turang has had an horrible September. .174 BA and OPS with 32 Ks.... They say he keeps losing weight which effects his play. Time for Pancake to bench him for a while (probably never going to happen) or at least move him way down in the order. 

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

This game is a complete trainwreck.

Are you from the future?

[Bulldogboy]

Lara with a knock of course 

[Opening Day]

Oh look, opposing fams are collecting beer cups in the stands. They can send the camera crew and BA one way tickets.

I know, I know, but it's the little things, man. Ortiz hitting for Hamilton is an easy move here vs. the lefty.

[adambr2]

Thanks for nothing again Frelick.

If you hit Ortiz for Hamilton then Yelich needs to play in the field when you use a position player to pitch next inning which will never happen

[Bulldogboy]

Just a terrible game but not managed well and the roster decisions can be questioned

The horror. 

[wiguy94]

Coop hitting a HR was cool though now we can't use a position player this inning lol

[Opening Day]

The journey of 10,000 miles (overcoming a 9-0 7th inning deficit) begins with one step (a Pratt 2-run HR).

I guess it's just a matter of semantics then. I wouldn't consider someone who only made it to A ball in the Brewers org as a former Brewer/Brewers castoff.

If you remembered that we drafted him, I'd hope you could've made the connection... 🙄

I mean you're right there

[Fear The Chorizo]

Lara losing a bunch of regular playing time to a guy who isnt as good a defender, isnt as good a hitter, isnt as fast, and isnt healthy is a choice I'm going to disagree with, pancakes

[Opening Day]

Hit em all, f' it.  Lets start a fight.

 

*  should have taken my advice

[jason21nl]

Why is he pitching
