🙄🤪 That has to be one of the most bizarre and totally irrelevant off topic posts ever seen on this board.

I agree that the five inning requirement should be eliminated given how the game is played these days. I think the simplest way to do it is to just remove the requirement and say that if the starting pitcher has not worked five innings, then apply the standards that are in the rule now, while allowing the starting pitcher to be the “most effective” pitcher. That would just add an additional candidate to a subjective standard that already exists. The scoring rules already have a number of comments that are meant to assist the scorer in naming the winning pitcher.

For the time being I want to see Bauers in the lineup every day against RH starters. And when Yelich gets back, if nothing else changes I would seriously think about using Bauers in the outfield with Vaughn at 1B.

12:15 is a common starting time for the Cardinals on getaway day afternoons.

At this stage of the season I’m not concerned about the Brewers catching anyone. But I am concerned about the Brewers getting straightened out and not digging a hole over these next few weeks. Hopefully, getting Chourio and Vaughn back will help break the feast or famine pattern that has led to too many games in which the offense is not competitive while piling up big numbers in a few lopsided wins. But the injuries to Zerpa and Woodruff have further shaken an already unsettled pitching staff that is going to be challenged in the next few weeks. I said on another thread that if the Brewers can get to the end of the month at or a little above 500, and without more significant injuries, they should be well positioned to make a run at a playoff spot over the last four months, even if they are in last place in the division.

Nope.
-
I’m sure the fact that the Cardinals play in San Diego Thursday night was a factor in the decision not to play two games tomorrow.
-
That is what they announced. So, the Cardinals get to miss Misioroski.
-
You have to be quite the optimist to expect that either Woodruff or Yelich will be available at any given time. Yelich isn’t going to be playing 18 games in 17 days even if he isn’t on the IL.

5 games in 4 days in St.Louis during the hottest part of the year.High probability of thunderstorms on at least one day at that time of year to complicate things further. The Brewers should, prohibit any of their players from going to the All Star Game to rest up after the brutal schedule leading up to the break.

Brewers (Patrick) vs Cardinals (Leahy): 5/4/26, 6:45pm
BruisedCrew replied to Brandon Glick's topic in Archived Game Threads
I think that a lot of the criticism of Hamilton’s bunting is not second guessing, when he goes to it in situations where the value is minimal. Like on Sunday when he tried to bunt with runners on second and third with 2 outs and still tried to bunt with 2 strikes. Last night I was hoping for Black to pinch hit and Hamilton ended up wasting two strikes showing bunt before striking out. Down by 4 runs I don’t like trying to nurse one run across with multiple runners on base. Depending on the placement, even a bunt that he can beat out doesn’t guarantee getting a run in. Trying to bunt for a hit with a runner on first and less than 2 out in a close game doesn’t bother me because at least an out can advance a runner. But I don’t like bunting with runners in scoring position and two outs. especially when down by multiple runs, I think that some of the situations when Hamilton tries to bunt show that he doesn’t have confidence in his own ability to hit. -
Jackson Chourio, Andrew Vaughn Return To Brewers' Lineup

You alluded to my biggest objection to umpires calling balls and strikes. That is the potential for calls being influenced by the game situation and the players involved. I don’t see all ABS unless and until the result can be delivered instantaneously. Even a delay of a couple of seconds could add 5-10 minutes to the length of a game and I don’t want that.
-
The Brewers completed the relatively soft part of a difficult stretch of 6 weeks outscoring their opponents 66-40. Unfortunately, 38 of those 66 runs came in 3 games, and 28 runs in the other 9 games was only enough to produce 3 wins. Now the schedule gets really tough with 6 of the next 7 series against teams that are all at least 6 games over .500.
-
Chourio will most likely not be back tomorrow now until they see how his ankle recovers from the shot it took last night. I did not realize until they said it on the telecast today that the Brewers only have 3 HRs in road games.
-
In the gap and hitting the wall on the fly is hard to catch.
-
I’ve seen enough of Hamilton’s defensive gaffes and inclination to bunt in any and all situations to conclude that I don’t want to see him as an everyday SS.. A player who tries to bunt with 2 strikes and 2 outs with 2 RISP obviously has no confidence in himself as a hitter.
-
The same thing could happen in his first game in MLB too, so I’m not bothered that he was playing tonight. But if his return has to be delayed because of that it’s going to be extremely annoying.
-
More immediately you should hope that the Cardinals, especially Jordan Walker, cool off before the Brewers play them next week.
-
Just saw the clip of Chourio fouling a ball off his foot and hobbling off the field on one leg. Given how this season has gone with injuries I should probably expect to hear tomorrow that he broke a bone in his foot and will be out another 4-6 weeks.
-
Why should a pitch in the strike zone not be called a strike just because the pitch misses the catcher’s target? I don’t think there is any question that umpires should be trying to call pitches based on the rule book strike zone as established by ABS.
-
I just don’t want to hear that anyone had a setback I saw something today about Wyatt Langford of the Rangers. He went out on rehab and was expected to be activated in the next couple of days after a strained forearm muscle.. In his first AB on rehab, he aggravated the injury and said it felt just like it did when he first hurt it. So, he’s going to be resting for another week and then be reevaluated.
-
Have there been any more updates on Chourio and Vaughn in Nashville. I haven’t heard anything since their first game on Wednesday.
-
The Sunday lineups have been helped by Yelich and then Sanchez coming off the bench to hit 3 run HRs.
-
🤞🏻On Misioroski.
