They're probably saving Braddock for the 8th. If you bring in Stetter to face Gload, the Phillies put in a righty like Mayberry, and then you have Stetter against a RHB, which is never fun. A lefty also puts Victorino on the right side where he's a LOT better. And Polanco is a RHB. The bullpen did fine there, they caught bad breaks with the error and gload's ground ball finding $#%%%!. And they got the break back with that DP.

hell of a play yuni! won't get a chance to say that too much this year....but gotta give him credit. very heads up.
-
roenicke was going to sac bunt anyway, and marcum can get one down. why waste the pinch hitter (marcum is probably better than anyone on the bench anyway)
-
I'm not saying I'm happy about it.....but who else is going to hit 2nd? Yuni? I guess you could try and make a case for Lucroy...but I think at this point you just have to roll with Gomez in the 2 hole until Morgan and/or Hart get healthy. The brewer bench is just awful...there just aren't any other options there at the moment.

true falsetrue

stop sounding so rational.
-
i've seen other teams do it. he's figuring anything hit out of the infield is probably going to get werth home....so don't let it out of the infield. i actually like it, just don't like playing mcgehee so far off of third.
-
not a chance in hell. werth was halfway down the line when the ball was hit. thats what happens when you have mcgehee shifted to essentially shortstop.
-
It was a bad throw by yuni, but prince needs to make that catch. would have been nice to see him come off the bag and make the tag on werth's back.
-
if they would have brought braddock in to face cora...wouldnt the nats have just countered with a right handed pinch hitter? And espinosa is much better against lefties, so you probably would havehad to make another change. people need to calm down just a touch.
-
so in theory, it would have been gomez's fault that rickie wasn't hustling....? and it wasn't that close with weeks. i dont mind the play by gomez...it was a great throw by ankiel. hopefully the bullpen holds up and ryan/prince get their chance to take care of it anyway.
-
really? we're going with almonte here?
-
i don't mean this as an indictment on randy wolf (he's been poor so far, but I think he'll be just fine for a back of the rotation guy in the long run).....but the brewers have only given up 9 runs in the 7 games started by NOT randy wolf. that's not half bad.
-
Tony Plush thought it would be better to save his awesomeness for a closer game.that's one wise gentleman.
-
tony plush is going to go to a whole new level if he comes through with the bases loaded here...
-
i'm not a fan of jeff baker facing a lefty in all of his at bats tonight. On his last two he drove in the cubs' 6th and then scored their 7th run. I don't agree with leaving Wolf in to face him again in the sixth, but i guess i kind of understand trying to let Wolf get through the 6th. I think a lot of managers would have done the same....like i said I disagree with it, but i get it (kind of). But leaving Braddock in to face him to lead off the ninth was a mistake. Should have just given that inning to Mitre.
-
still very frustrated from the top half of this inning....but it's really nice to see the bottom of the order find a way to produce some runs. Not something i'm counting on happening too often....but it's definitely nice.
-
or 4 of them. whoops.
-
Well, scratch that. Looks like MLB Extra Innings is still free. Yipeee! I still missed the homer, though.yep, it's free through the weekend. i think that makes it an 11 day preview....resulting in one of the first times i've ever approved of something my cable company has done.
-
With the bucks, i think it's just the way the contracts are written up. they get FSN priority. I dont remember when those were signed...but i bet people were more interested in the bucks back then. i could be wrong though. If you want to watch, give www.ilemi.tv a try. Picture's not great and it can lag...but it's better than nothing.
-
I'd prefer Morgan in the two-hole as well, but like dlk9s said I don't really have a problem with Roenicke continuing to give him a chance out there if that's what he wants to do. 6 games is a small sample size (i know gomez's career has been much longer and equally unsuccessful...but Roenicke liked what he saw in the spring, so he can keep giving him a chance). He did go 1-3 with a walk last night...i know that last at bat in the 8th is going to be what everyone remembers, but getting on base twice is progress.
-
i cannot believe they sent braun there. that was awful. please yovani. for the love of god make it ok.
-
yea, even though there was some questionable baserunning, i like the gomez pinch run/play in center field sub. please let gallardo hit this inning.
-
good thing the next game IS on tuesday though.

So how many games in a row do we have to lose to start the season before we end the "this is no different than a 4-game skid in June" line? 5, 6, 7, 10? A 10-game losing streak in April is no different than in June? The fact is we're the only NL team without a win. The guys are feeling the pressure now, as well as the manager I am sure.Well, losing fifth game in a row would make it different than a 4 game losing streak in june. and yes, a 10 game losing streak in april is no different than one in june. they both suck. hopefully we're not talking about that in a week though.
