Hopefully Guerra’s forearm strain isn’t the same as Suter’s
-
Nice start to the series, we need to win one. I forgot how that feels.
-
Eh, nobody threw very many pitches. Barnes says sit back and watch this! Pushed it just enough to get Knebel up
-
We’re using a lot of relievers in a 5 run game.
-
The thought of Hader, Burnes, Peralta, Woodruff all in a rotation is good stuff. Probably mathematically impossible all end up as starters that live up to the hype all at the same time, but fun to dream about.

Left handed

I bet on the Nationals and have Gio starting on my fantasy team. There’s no way we were losing this one! I did my part!

The problem with saying this is that it just generalizes it, when the truth is every single game is different. Maybe starters should be pulled, sometimes they are cruzing and shouldn’t. Counsel, and I like Craig, sometimes seems to have an odd gauge on it. Just using Suter as a reference, there was a start he let him go 7 I believe. The next start he was struggling with command, looked “off”, Counsel sent him out for another inning, he got shelled. The next start he’s cruising and gets pulled. There used to be the old unwritten rule late: Up 2 you let him go till a base runner. Up 3 let them go till the second runner. If a pitcher had a good outing going let them go till 100 pitches but never let them “lose”. Meaning pull before that thing/go ahead run came to the plate. I’m not an old school tradition type guy... but that one made sense.

We’re getting real desperate for wins when people suggest using Jeffress when down 2-6.
-
Counsel finally finds a reliever who’s throwing well and what does he do? Pulls him for Kratz!!! Kratz has a sweet knuckle ball though...
-
Sophia claims Freddy threw two scoreless innings for the Trats in his start Wed. Not the case since I was there and seen him give up a run in the second....
-
Love the lady trying to start a let’s go Brewers chant... Never loose faith, even when nobody joins in...
-
Not if they get rained out today... would be just our luck.
-
Jacob Barnes???
-
Has Davies started another rehab assignment yet, or still shut down?
-
This reminds me of the constant back and forth we have on Chris Archer. "Archer is a lot better pitcher than his numbers show." "But he hasn't been." "Well, he SHOULD be." Luck matters, but when a player is constantly underperforming his peripherals it's time to dig a little deeper and look for reasons why instead of just assuming that its going to turn around over a long enough period of time. Well, the fact that it was a 108 mph exit velocity line drive helps me believe it was bad luck.... or poor launch angle....
-
That won’t solve anything. Woodruff isn’t that good He’s arguably our second best pitching prospect still. He hasn’t been great in the majors this year, but to say he isn’t any good is a very short sighted comment.
-
I don’t think they will put Burnes in the rotation this year, but flipping roles for Suter and Woodruff probably should happen.
-
Come on now, I am with you in that I really like Yelich and I think he has yet to even enter his prime, but the people talking about him are not saying anything close to "hating" him. Trwi7 - Yelich is like Jenkins, I have no idea why he’s so revered on here. Old school snapper- That’s an insult to Jenkins arm. Boomer - In no possible way is he an elite player.
-
Two walks already, Pérez goes up hacking...
-
Wow, crooked number in the first, now keep it rolling!
-
Yelich 11-29 off Wood, hope he stays hot!
-
He's hitting below .200, but taking plenty of walks, so I don't have a problem with him leading off. He's got an OBP well north of .300, so leading off is actually a pretty sound decision. As much as I’ve been criticizing our hitting coaches, some players are very noticeably more patient this year. Broxton and Villar being two of them. If it’s Coles, another coach, or own maturity who knows, but it’s been an improvement.
-
His tone wasn’t joking, he almost seemed annoyed that the guy asked a second time. Maybe I read into it wrong.

In tonight’s post game a reporter made a comment about Jeffress warming up during Hader’s second inning. Counsel said Jeffress wasn’t warming up there. Reporter said maybe not throwing but he was up stretching, moving around. Counsel says No he wasn’t, you must be getting old, or have old eyes. I rewound back to the inning, the camera shows Jeffress not only stretching, but later throwing warm up pitches off the mound. How can Counsel have no idea that he was up throwing? Or why would Jeffress be up throwing if Counsel didn’t call for it? Seemed like an odd disconnect. Counsel was adamant that Jeffress never started warming up.
