  1. Yelly came back from his resting injury and has basically done nothing. That first K was embarrassing for a veteran. Why wold anyone not pitch him low and away.. He's going after them. hn has hit one Been a month since Vaughn has hit one. Truth is no one is playing great. Murphy's resting policy is not working as everyone looks out of rhythm. lost what, 6 of the 7 last series. Looking like the Crew of old.
  2. Ends on K. As Jed Clampett used to say, "Pitiful......Pitiful.....'
  3. One watches fastballs right over the plate, the next one swings wildly at crap in the dirt. Agreed- a whole new hitting approach/coach is needed.
  4. Veterans again. Can't field a ground ball at you. Freddy tires and elevates the ball and walks straight to the showers. I guess he knew what was going to follow. It doesn't matter the decade or even the century- put a Brewer uniform on them and watch them shart themselves in the post season.
  5. Because it didn't really matter. Next year he's gone for 200+. Yankee money. Way out of the Crews range.
  6. little league rule of baseball- don't make the first out at third base. Yeesh- took all the pressure off the pitcher. Back to low pitches near the dirt after that.
  7. Ugly ugly offense. Like they never saw a curve ball in the dirt they didn't like.
  8. There is literally no such thing as a back door division win. We had a great summer and built a big divisional lead that was enough to hold up at the end of the year. I am as frustrated as anybody about how this season ended but no reason to diminish their regular season accomplishments - even with a poor last week or two to end.[/quote Screwed around for a month looking terrible. Little longer and they would have lost the division. I get what you're saying but to me it was a back door.
  9. Every team in the playoffs was better. Except for maybe the white Sox This is easily the most disappointing end to a season in a long time. Usually you have appreciation for a playoff team even when they lose in the playoffs But this one is different. All they did was screw around for a month. For a month Bingo!
  10. i'll agree with you on that. But he's going to need a hitting coach to do that. They all could use batting help. What they have now is not it.
  11. Their lineup is insane. It's hard to not make mistakes when nearly every guy 1-7 can end the game with one swing. I admit that I didn't know how much power they had until I was at Game 1 and saw all their numbers on the board and it was like 6 straight 30 bomb guys. True. That's what you expect in the playoffs. The Brewers were the anomaly.
  12. Does the guys body look like a guy who is going to get in the gym and get healthy?? Bulk up a bit?? I don't think so. Looks like a guy who could use a real hitting coach, not the pretender they have now. These guys look like they are all struggling to figure things out on their own.
  13. Bottom line..many of us said the lack of offense would doom them and it did. Outside of Tellez being involved, 4 games and 2 runs......2 runs....That's as embarrassing as it gets. So many batters with embarrassing at bats swinging at crap while standing there watching good pitches. Who's to blame? 1. CC for taking the foot off the gas the last month and killing whatever momentum they had. Hope he learned a lesson from this, but I doubt it. He's still waiting "To catch a break." Teams make their breaks 2. Their nonexistant hitting coach that should of been fired last year. This team needs a different approach to hitting. This was so embarrassing to watch. 3. CC if he doesn't get a new hitting coach. 4. Stearns if 1,2, or 3 don't occur. What started as as a great year ended up as a back door division win and an embarrassing performance in the playoffs. There should be changes. But I guess we should be used to it by now. It's the Brewers being the Brewers Still one of six to never win the Title.
