The Reds are planning to have Bauer pitch against the Twins on Sunday (3 days rest again) and he’s still in the game at 100+ pitches and counting. -
A scenario that is lining up now... The Brewers are going to be 27-28 at night’s end. With the Cardinals currently down 6 runs lets predict they end the night at 27-26. If the Brewers take 3 of 5 from the Cardinals they will finish 30-30. The Cardinals would be 29-29 and likely have to play a double header against the Tigers on Monday.
-
Sogard got all of that one.
-
Contreras and Biaz. Wainright. Also pretty much every punch and judy hitter from the Pirates who has given the Brewers fits over the years. If the Brewers would have pulled off the rumored Manny Machado trade attempt during the midseason in 2018 I think Brewers fans would’ve loved him. Now they all despise him.
-
It’s going to be fitting when the Brewers go over .500 for the first time all season after the first game of Friday’s double header, only to be back to .500 two hours later.
-
I believe today is eight. Eight freakin’ times. This was their 9th attempt to get over .500 this season.
-
Too short............don’t see that in his future. He’s taller than Prince Fielder.
-
Errors happen, but Hiura makes some of the worst throws I’ve ever seen from a professional ball player.
-
It’s baseball. I wouldn’t dismiss out of hand. Is it likely. Probably not Next year is a big year for him This year was pathetic. But he’s earned the benefit of the doubt. Let’s hope it’s a one off If the Brewers thought (knew) Yelich’s success was tied to seeing signs from the outfield I don’t think they would’ve given him $215 million.
-
I’m not disputing that he’s been valuable for them, but he started the season as a borderline MVP candidate and has cooled off. He’s struggled against off speed pitches and back foot sliders. Still walking a bunch and playing good defense.

Cubs blog Bleacher Nation was in the middle of it, here’s their story: Yelich-Darvish Issue
-
Not if the Cubs sign him.
-
Struck out... Garcia got thrown out at 2B in the middle of the Yelich AB.
-
Well it could actually look worse. Grisham has cooled off considerably and Davies came a bit back down to earth last night (albeit not a terrible outing).
-
Just 32 pitches for Bauer to get through 3 innings... ...sigh.
-
I think so. It’s weird to me that in the span of one week they went from Counsell calling him the shortstop of the future to basically avoiding him completely.
-
One problem is they are sort of stuck at this point with needing to get as many innings as possible out of Houser tonight despite his shaky performance early. With 5 games against the Cardinals in the next 4 days including Friday’s doubleheader they’ll likely avoid unloading their best long relief and bullpen options.
-
Coming into tonight (Link)... Last 7 starts by Reds pitchers: 41 IP, 25 H, 10 BB, 54 K, 4 HR, 1.76 ERA They haven't allowed more than 2 runs in any of those 7 starts.
-
I guess the championship bullpen session didn’t translate well to game action.
-
He’s facing lefties a lot more often this year than last. He’s going to have to have to figure out a neutralizing pitch in the offseason to have any hope to stay in the rotation.
-
The walks have been one of Houser’s biggest issues this year (in addition to getting hammered by LHH).
-
It’s amazing how quickly the 1st inning went from looking good and like they were going to drive up Bauer’s pitch count to a fart noise.
