Zero reason for Lara to play 

You don’t bench Lara for striking out against Skubal, just like you don’t bench Pratt for an error the other night.  They’re the future of the franchise wether you like them or not, and the experience they gain this year will help them in future years, like 7 more future years they they’re under contract for.

Might need to have Lara or others try to bunt for hits sometime tonight. Make Skubal move and field.

Gotta try something.

They all are. Skubal is dominant. Vaughn was the only one to break through. 

There is quite a difference between making outs and what Joey did.

That’s why the Dodgers are a tough matchup. Brewers suck against LHP because a lot of their good bats are LH. Snell and Skubal will carve the lineup up. They have to play almost perfect to beat them but it can happen

Yeah I can understand that. He’s been brutal in the postseason. But you can’t start Hamilton against Skubal, 

I mean, in principle, I don't disagree but what's Joey done so far that gives us any better a chance than Hamilton would've? Joey's swinging at almost everything and pressing hard. The moment's too big right now.

Hit the damn ball.   I’m sick of the helpless nonsense.   You have 103 wins.    Score five runs in a playoff game for once.    **** off

Maybe we would rather see Bunty attempt a few bunts 🤷‍♂️

Correct. And obviously Lara is going to start over Frelick against a lefty. It’s Tarik and no one is looking good.

I wonder if they’ll get 5 hits.

Feels like they turned down the crowd volume and turned up field volume like the pop of the ball in the glove and batted balls so it's making it really hard to judge how hard fly balls are hit.

So is there no way we could have acquired this guy without trading Logan Henderson?

Because I daresay, Tarik being on the Dodgers versus being on the Brewers is the difference between being the favorites and underdogs to go to the World Series.

There is no way that's a balk. Not even close to a balk. I just don't see how it could be intepreted like that.
