    Tough last of the 9th for Burleson in RF. First batter hits what looks like a routine fly ball, but he was playing almost at the track and got a bad jump and the ball dropped in. Then with 2 out and a runner on second there’s a line single to RF. Burleson fields it on one hop and it looks like there will be a play at the plate .But as he starts to throw the ball slips out of his hand. He retrieves it and tries to throw home, but it fell out of his hand again.

    I wouldn’t bet on “right after”. Based on the reports so far he’s more than 4 weeks away from pitching effectively in a major league game.

    Sad news indeed. . Ill never forget seeing him hit 4 HRs in a game against the Braves in 1961.

    Time for bed. Team is sleepwalking through this one.
  5. BruisedCrew
    Think he tagged him on the heel.

    Vintage crappy game against a crappy western team. probably be going to bed early and hoping for a surprise in the morning.

    They should make Frelick do push-ups on the field like Willie Mays Hays when he swings for the fences and hits weak 70 foot pop ups like he has in both of his ABs tonight.

    For some reason when you post things from Twitter they don’t come through on my iPad unless I quote them.

    I hope this is good news and not the latest example of the Brewers playing shorthanded for 5 days before putting a player on the IL.

    Just as glad I won’t be able to watch the rest of this because of Father’s Day activities. Looking like another dreary day at the plate.
  11. BruisedCrew
    Can’t be giving away runs like that when your own team is struggling to score.
  12. BruisedCrew
    Noted. But, as we all know, money drives everything, not competitive fairness. The old system won’t be back any sooner than the Big 10 having 10 teams who all play each other in football almost every year.

    Murphy said something yesterday in his postgame comments that everyone who follows the Brewers closely already knows. The Brewers have not been the best version of themselves the last few weeks. Every game and series win they can get while fighting through this stretch will pay dividends later. A series win would be a good springboard heading into one of those western trips that have often been troublesome for Brewers teams over the years.

    Nice quick win at the ballpark today. Good to get a win while the offense continues to struggle. Some times all it takes is one big hit. The most striking thing was how crisp the defense was, starting with Chourio’s running catch on the first hitter, and then several nice plays from the infield, including the two DPs that required quick handling all around. That’s 3 straight wins for the games we’ve attended, each one marked by a big 3 run HR and not much other offense.The others were Hoskins against the Cardinals and Chourio against the Sox.

    This is a starting pitching mismatch Abbott dominated the Brewers in 3 of his 4 starts against them last year, and the way the Brewers have been hitting against starters he could be in for another big outing.
  16. BruisedCrew
    The Reds bullpen was fine until Diaz in the ninth. The Brewers only scored off the others because of the errors. It should have been 6-1 going into the ninth.
  17. BruisedCrew
    I agree. Sal Frelick is not a Hall of Fame player. I was just pointing out that size does not preclude a player from hitting home runs. I am comparing Frelick to an average major league RF, and he falls short there too.
  18. BruisedCrew
    Jose Ramirez is 5'9" 190 so big and tall is not necessarily a requirement from a HR hitter. But, I realize Frelick is not a HR hitter, and he should know that too. If he wants to play in MLB for long he is going to have to find a way to produce more than he has. If you don't like "terrible" I can upgrade him to "not very good" . He is definitely not average for a major league right fielder.
  19. BruisedCrew
    Frelick didn’t exactly help the cause with his blooper to the 2B with the bases loaded and nobody out.
  20. BruisedCrew
    I have watched him play and have looked at the numbers. An OPS around .650 for a RF (where the league average is .720) is pretty terrible. And it isn’t like he makes up for any of it with stellar defense.
  21. BruisedCrew
    The fact that they don’t have better options doesn’t make Frelick any less terrible. It’s really terrible that the insistence on alternating LH and RH hitters as much as possible means he is often hitting 5th or 6th.
  22. BruisedCrew
    A .250 average with very little power is terrible for a RF. Especially one who is mediocre defensively with a weak arm.
  23. BruisedCrew
    That comment about the game thread was one person’s opinion. I think most posters see using things that happen in the game to make comments about the bigger picture are appropriate.
  24. BruisedCrew
    Not expecting much offense tomorrow against Abbott.
  25. BruisedCrew
    The bunting Brewers strike again.
