You know, Brewers, I have work to do. -
Looked like it bounced off his glove, not the grass.

Well, going into tonight, his OBP with the Brewers was .387. Fair enough, but his .174/.204/.304 should get him a one-way ticket to AAA now. Villar has atleast one hit in every start (except 1) this season and sports a .342 batting average (including .314 coming into tonight) and was 2/3 already in this game. Why not let him keep raking? I'm not arguing against Villar. I'm just providing information about what Sogard has added to the team.

Huh? Up until those wild pitches, he has done quite well this season.
-
Considering the Brewers have had two extra innings wins, two walk-off wins and another ninth inning comeback in just 11 games, I'd say they've had some clutch hitting.
-
Drake's delivery is so borked. The way he brings the ball so low behind him and then plants his lead leg so far ahead of when his arm starts coming forward makes it really hard for him to bring the ball down into the strike zone. I haven't looked at stats, but from the eye test, it seems like tons of his pitches sail high. It's got to be hard on his arm/back, too.
-
HBP like that are such BS. It hit the guy's hand as he was moving his hands forward to start a swing. The ball was barely off the plate.
-
So the Brewers are supposed to throw at a Cardinals batter because of the bunt single, right?
-
I know the inning isn't over and Albers gave up a single to start the inning, but the blown game against the Cubs and this inning so far really have nothing to do with the lack of a closer. In both innings combined, it's been mostly balls that haven't left the infield. Just not the same. Different contact, less strikeouts, just not the same. I get what you're saying, but even 1st and 2nd to start the inning you still feel like Knebel gets out of it. Bases loaded, you feel like he can get a save. It doesn't matter what it "feels" like. Both Barnes and Albers are good pitchers who pitched well enough to not give up any runs. Only one hitter tonight - a very good one - made contact with a pitch that should not have resulted in an out.

omg - I totally thought it was 0-2 on Fowler until I saw the ump didn't call the first pitch a strike.

Hey, just catching up...has Yadi been ejected from the game yet for going ballistic the other day and shoving an ump?
-
When do the Yankees DFA Giancarlo Stanton?
-
Just need a few more base runners to get to Braun time.
-
I don’t remember a Brewer win ever ending this way. The Easter Sunday game was close, but obviously that wasn't back-to-back pitches (or even back-to-back hitters).
-
My kids are on spring break, so I'm letting them stay up late. I JUST made them go to bed when Yelich hit his bomb. I ran up to tell one of them the Brewers tied it up and by the time I got downstairs, Braun was rounding the bases.
-
I agree with Braun. Didn't even need to see the strike zone tracker. Hell, it wasn't even one of those typical outside corner pitches that Braun stares at and waits for the call. He was already smoothing out the batter's box to get ready for the next pitch.
-
The Cardinals are looking to chase....Anderson.

Lets keep in mind, too, that had the results of the first failed test never been leaked to the public (leaked...*tee hee*), Braun never would have gone on the public defensive. He would've failed the test, it would have been secret, he would've appealed and won, and that would've been it. Obviously, he still would've been caught in the later investigation, but the whole ordeal with him lying about it never would've happened. He did something against the rules, obviously, but he was also put in a position where he pretty much had to lie about it, ESPECIALLY because his lawyer(s) believed there was a great chance he could win the appeal. If one of us, say, broke the law and went to court, yet our legal team felt strongly that we could win the case by pleading not guilty, 99.5% would lie and say we didn't do it. Did he protest too much, yeah, probably. But the thing that people are pissed off about (pissed....*tee hee*) - the lying - would never have happened had the test result not been publicized. Braun was backed into a corner and, aside from perhaps the volume of his protest, did exactly what anyone else would do. He fought.
-
I read the comments last night about Uke's awful call of Braun's homer and it's funny - all the clips I've seen that feature the radio call edit out the part where he thought Braun missed. I haven't heard the original call, but I'm guessing that Uke blinked or took his eyes off of the pitch for a millisecond and somehow missed the bat making contact with the ball (and perhaps didn't hear the crack because of crowd noise). Then he saw Braun turn his head in what looked like disgust (at first, I thought Braun was upset he didn't get all of it or something) and thought he struck out.

DFA Yelich
