Tayden Hall with some shockingly poor baserunning. Was on 2nd base with 0 outs in the bottom of the 8th and tried to go to 3rd on a ball hit right at the SS. Easy out at 3rd.
I agree. I can think Murphy is a good overall manager and deserving of manager of the year while simultaneously being a poor in game manager which is exactly what I think and what my #PatMurphyLogic dig was about. His in game managing.
Edit: In game managing mostly doesn't make a big difference during the regular season. There are 162 games so the good/bad decisions even out, but in the playoffs these poor managing decisions could absolutely be the difference between a win and a loss which is scary with Murphy's bunt fascination.
60 pitchers in the MLB have hit 100.0 mph this year

Nah Pat Murphy has shown to be an extremely questionable in game manager with his inconsistent bullpen logic and his fascination with bunting. The Brewers have won 86 games because the roster is good
Yoho pitching now so it won't be him. That leaves the only fresh pitchers on the 40 man as Tyler Jay and Peguero if Payamps has to hit the IL, We all know who Murphy wants it to be
He warmed up multiple times today. If you use him tomorrow it'd be the equivalent of him throwing 5 times in 7 days which is why the whole "he's available but only for an out" crap was utter nonsense. Especially moreso when Devin claims he was going to get the 9th inning if the Brewers got the lead in the 9th.
So who is lying. Murphy saying Devin was only available for 1-2 outs or Devin saying he would have gotten the 9th if the Brewers got a lead in the top half?
They have to make a move. They can't go into a game with Civale, Milner, Paredes as the only available arms. Payamps will probably have to hit the IL. I'd guess that would mean Peguero would be back up.
It's just totally moronic. If you're worried about Devin staying fresh then he should have been totally unavailable. Warming him up multiple times for a potential 1-2 out situation is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.
This has been one of Murphy's worst managed games all year.
Playing for 1 run in the 7th inning with a sac bunt against one of the best offenses in the MLB.
Letting Ashby pitch to Grichuk when he clearly had showed he didn't have it with Payamps ready in the pen.
Not letting Payamps pitch the 8th inning despite being extremely fresh and only throwing 5 pitches in the 7th. Opting to use Megill and Williams in the 8th and 9th who will both be throwing for the 4th time in 6 days.
He's just not at all a good in game manager.
Looks like it's true although probably worth noting that Chourio has 37 more batted balls in that time because Judge walks a lot.
