[OldSchoolSnapper]

6 pitches. 

[yourout]

That was not exactly encouraging.

[adambr2]

That was about as wet fart of a start offensively as you can have.

That is why Turang is batting cleanup.

Huh?  I don't get it.

[craigharmann]

So much for working the count…..

Sick of such little runs. Please score some runs. Need less stress.

Going into today we were tied for 2nd in the DS in runs. It's just been a low scoring round.

That said, real uninspiring start. This first inning for Gasser is so huge.

[Valentín Viña]

Way to make him work. 

[nate82]

Surprise surprise another 4-3 groundout by Yelich.

[Branyanisthegoat]

Buehler isnt normally averaging 97 on bis sinker 1st inning, is he?

[Bernies Sponsor]

not a great start!

Getting nervous here. 

Based on the approach in the first, so are the Brewers.

I think the old wily manager is trying to get into the head of the Padres.

I'd rather he get into the heads of the Brewers.

New dad velo, maybe? 

[Strike4]

To quote Han Solo - I have a bad feeling about this.

 

of course that’s every game but still

Lara has 72 PAs against lefties this year. I wouldn’t call that small. He has never in his professional career hit lefties better than righties…so I’d guess his struggles against lefties is probably factual.

Mitchell’s 13 PAs in the playoffs this year, definitely a microscopic sample.

I’m not really confident in Mitchell at this point, but that doesn’t really make me want to trust Lara just because we haven’t seen him suck yet. He went 0-4 in a game though, so I guess we kinda did. I’m pretty confident Lara would be just as bad or worse. 
 

 

You wouldn't call 72 PAs small, but Mitchell's is microscopic? 

OK... I certainly agree that Mitchell's is very small... not that 72 PAs is "not small." 

But there also has to be some feel. Mitchell clearly appears lost up there. 

I'm more confident Lara can battle and use his legs to do some damage and stay in an at bat. But, hey, Mitchell is playing so, I'm going to hope you're right and he can reset and give us some competitive at bats.

I go through phases of telling myself it’s just a game and no matter how much I love this team, my life doesn’t fundamentally change and phases of pure nervous hell. 

[Bulldogboy]

It's wild how much better the lefties hang in vs lefties for the Padres. 

[craigharmann]

Machado bunts? 

[Brock Beauchamp]

I dislike Machado as much as anyone, but damn that was a real baseball play right there.

Exactly.  You have zero control or affect on any of this.
