Can you name the other 4 Dodger ROYs from 93-96 after Karros in 92? -
I just bought season tickets for the Indians, Astros and Red Sox to guarantee I can buy a seat to Game 7 of the World Series to watch the Brewers win it.

Did Thames pull a Jermaine Dye and break his own leg with a foul ball?

The Reds have the worst pitching staff in the league, and you want to blow your closer in the 3rd inning? Or should that have been in blue? If Knebel gets 3 outs at any point of the game then he is not being "blown", just randomly saving your best pitcher until the 9th inning is not a good strategy. If we had a bases loaded situation with a pitcher due up in the 4th inning, should we use our best pinch hitter or someone else so we can save our best one for later? There is no better possible scenario to use your best pinch hitter than bases loaded, and there is no better time to use your best pitcher than with the bases loaded, needing a strikeout with the season on the line. In addition, it is better to use Knebel earlier because if he has a quick inning he can be used to face more hitters than only 3 if was saved for the 9th.

Who's he gonna pitch? Swarzak? He blew Hader last night. Seem allergic to Guerra and Taylor Williams. Garza? Come on! They needed a big start and didn't get it. That isn't on Counsell. Should have brought Knebel in instead of Wang
-
I mean what can you do? Who can you put in right now? We've gotta cover 7 innings now, there are no good options to do that in the pen right now. Bases loaded 1 out, season on the line I would use the best player I have available. Wang and Torres are not that. Now we can just watch a bunch of strikeouts on junk out of the zone as every hitter tries for a 6 run HR the rest of the game
-
So I guess in Counsell's mind this is not a must win game? Considering we already know the Rockies won what is he thinking using Wang and Torres?
-
Let's go the Reds starting Homer Bailey would be like if we were still trotting Wily Peralta out there.
-
We need to schedule these Cubs games for like 5:30 starts so it is tougher for FIBS to get here
-
Knebel was pissed at Bandy, wonder what that is about. Gotta wonder if Bandy was scared to call a curve because he didnt have the confidence to block it with the bases loaded
-
He was out. Crap
-
Gotta run Arcia for Sogard
-
Please just swing at strikes this inning, all I ask
-
Dont be silly Haha unlike you, I'm actually laughing. Not calling for Counsell to be fired or Knebel to be strung up in front of Miller Park. So relax there champ and carry on. You don't seem to realize you are the one who gets into it with someone new like once a week. I suggest you attempt to relax
-
According to sabermetrics there is no such thing as choking so I guess that walk can just be attributed to randomness
-
Dont be silly
-
How about a F8 double play at home
-
man, last night having Walker vs Thames at 1B maybe costs us the game, and tonight Thames and his slightly less range than Walker on that one hurts us
-
well they did have to wait 108 years for it so maybe they are due
-
It's that kind of mentality the Brewers have that has led to a 4-10 extra inning record this year. I'd love to see it but when players go up there thinking home run or bust, 9 times out of 10 it's bust. The reason they are 4-10 in extra innings is because their bullpen is terrible. Here are their losing pitchers in the 10 losses: Torres 1 Drake 3 Peralta 2 Feliz 1 Barnes 1 Hughes 2 True, but it does mean we had our chances where we put up 0s. If not we would have used better pitchers or walked off
-
That was a bad miss for a 3-2 pitch, Knebel needs to calm down
-
as usual, HR swing on ball 4
-
I dont ever remember seeing the wind blow the pitchers pants around in Miller Park
-
Its not reactionary to the play, its reactionary to multiple seasons of the same crap, culminating with a play that would have gotten me benched in high school. I want a winner. I want someone to come in and have a press conference like
