Sir Illo

Guaranteed Rate 4/30. Bullpen guys interactive with the kiddos, very fun.

We want the ball and we’re gonna score?

Just a wildly impressive outing from Ashby. I’ll back others who suggest using Ashby as the utility knife in the pen ala early Hader and seeing what Small can do in the 6th/spot starter role. Happy to salvage a win at the end of a rough road trip. Welcome home Crew!

Not saying he’s the key to a win or loss but if George Hill plays another minute for the Bucks, it will be one minute too many. Never will understand why Bud didn’t keep giving those minutes to Carter or at least give them back to Carter once it was clear (pretty quickly) that Hill has nothing to offer. Yet he keeps trotting him out there.

Boroski and his blatant bias against Badgers/Brad on full display

Real bush league stuff right there from Howard. Don’t want Gard to call a late timeout to instruct his bench scrubs? Then don’t leave half your starters in to full court press when down 15 with 15 seconds left. Regardless, totally inexcusable handshake line behavior. Classless. Warrants a pretty significant suspension at the least.

What an effort from this team. Davis has to be gone to NBA after this season, hey? Projected lottery pick from what I’ve seen lately.

My kingdom for some runs..

Bucknor is such a pile of trash. Always. Unbelievable.

I certainly believe Burnes will continue to be an effective, if not dominant, SP based on stuff but fair to wonder if the sticky substance ban has significantly affected him (and of course many others)? Anyone have good info on spin rates for Burnes pre- and post-ban? Not savvy enough to know where to look myself.

No, believe it or not, tone isn't always obvious on the Internet, but I already did suggest that as a possibility, so...... The relief pitchers we traded for have “literally” had no chance to make it to Atlanta and join the team, seeing as they were acquired mere hours ago. There’s no need to pick up on tone. It was, quite obviously, sarcasm.

Pineapple!

At least Keston consistently meets expectations. As in, no one reasonably expected him to drive in a run there.

OK Suarez..how bout some situational awareness, tough guy.

My goodness, so trwi7 is of the mindset that the out call was correct. Not a terrible take honestly. Disagree all you want. Questioning fandom and how people can and should react and think and interpret plays? Get out of here. Also probably time to let that call go IMO
