I wouldn't worry guys.....BA and Rock have informed me that the brewers are still in first place and have been all year....That is really all that matters......winning games and playing good baseball really isn't important at this time of the year.....
Jeff Hem @JeffHemPBP 1m .@matttclark23 homers to dead center! His 16th HR in 53 games for @nashvillesounds and 12th this month. 1-1 game top 7 in Round Rock.
Might be time to try the kick in the ass approach instead of the "That's baseball...everything is fine".......Any manager should be embarrased by these last 5 games...... Do we have any leaders on this team?
Molina was out for about 6 weeks and the Cards went from 2 1/2 out to tied for first.......Pirates lost Mccutchen...fell 7 or 8 games out and now within 2... Brewers under .500 since April........
So we allow 13 runs on 19 hits last night and bounce back to get no hit for 5 innings tonight........ Making Peavy look like Greg Maddux in his prime.....
Apparently Schroeder also thinks that Peralta has been unlucky this inning even though every one of the hits except for Pence's has been hit hard......
2 clunkers in a row at home........need to get this turned around starting tomorrow..... This might have been the worst game of the year...certainly in the top 2 or 3 Bad defense, bad pitching and little offense other then the Braun homer.
He had 39 ABs last year with horrible numbers...add that to the 35 ABs this year and bad minor league numbers and it is clear that he doesn't hit lefties anywhere near as good as Weeks does at least not right now. Since they are trying to win the division it really is a no brainer to platoon them.
You would get tired of watching Scooter try and hit lefties too....... no, actually, I wouldnt. Are you aware how bad Scooter is against Lefties? OPS......282......that is OPS not OBP... Weeks is 768 Scooter can't hit lefties...not even a little bit.....
Brewers have been nothing more then a 500 team since April.......hard to believe that kind of mediocre play will get them in the playoffs....just nothing special about this team. Offense streaky......starting pitching ok....bullpen average or worse. D has been pretty good I guess....other then Davis's arm.....
