Shaw probably could use a day or two off. But there’s not much to replace him with on the current roster. As for Hiura, there should be a trip to the minors in the near future.
-
Got the sweep in San Diego.
-
Walked the tightrope in the 8th. Need to seal the win.
-
Another Jace HR? Don’t ask how, just accept it.
-
Omar making the most of that opportunity!
-
Prior to today’s game, Suter had inherited 3 runners; all of them had scored: 1 on APR 10 at STL 2 on APR 16 vs. PIT
-
Hit rockets for outs; hit bloopers for RBIs. Whatever works. Edit: Now some hard hits fall in. Good start tonight.
-
Hard to predict the Wahl and Topa injuries, followed by Williams seeming to be wrong on the mound. But that path not taken during the off-season sure looks good in hindsight right now.
-
Need one of these two-out RBI opportunities to be cashed in.
-
Don’t really understand the stolen base attempt when down three runs.
-
One big swing from Shaw can turn this game around. Missed his first chance tonight.
-
Brian and Bill said it was over 5 and that they've been the opposite of the rotation. Baseball Reference had it listed as 5.05 ERA for the bullpen entering tonight’s game: https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/split.cgi?t=p&team=MIL&year=2021#sprel_extra 20 earned runs in 35.2 innings pitched. Sporting a 1.514 WHIP. Not the strength of the team so far this season.
-
Scoring runs in bunches right now, while getting dominant starts from the rotation. When the potential on offense and pitching both fully show up, the Brewers look like a powerhouse team. Even a performance at a 60-70% clip would equal a good number of wins.
-
Great game for Piña! Catcher tandem looking good to start 2021.
-
That has seemed to be a fairly common issue over the past two seasons before this one. Might be somewhat anecdotal, but I recall numerous in-game threads with that same complaint about not tacking on runs after scoring a few early inning runs.
-
It's a good story. Shows the patience of the management and their belief in the talent that Burnes had, even if 2019 was ugly statistically. Definitely didn't sell low.

Completely agree that it needs to be reviewable. Right now hitters have plenty of incentive to lean into inside pitches. If the ball does make contact with the batters elbow the odds it gets called correctly are unfortunately not very high. In that case I am shocked the home plate ump went from ready to call a strike to calling it a HBP. Wouldn’t you take a second to criticality think through the fact a batter was just by a pitch you saw as in the strike zone. Three thoughts came to mind: (1) Ban the protective armor, then Conforto doesn't stick his elbow out without the potential of suffering injury. That would eliminate some of those situations, though with a chance to win the game, it might be worth doing. (2) Don't know if it were possible to do, but that would've been a good time for the umpire crew to confer and have someone ask the question of the home plate umpire: "Was that a strike you were calling? If so, then the HBP should be overruled by that." (3) It would seem to be feasible to make those situations reviewable and somewhat objective with the technology we have like in soccer and tennis to create lines. Determine planes at the edge of the plate; if body parts enter that zone over the plate and are struck by the pitch, then it's not a HBP.

3 runs stolen away by the CF's glove. 1 run given back by the CF's glove.
-
Kolten Wong at 2B is a pleasure to watch.
-
Bit of an ugly backwards K for Shaw in that situation.
-
Omar comin’! Maybe it will be the Narvaez from Seattle this year.
-
Time to take advantage of the Twins’ generosity in the 5th. Strike at their bullpen.
-
Twins getting two-out hits when they have the opportunity to score. Needed to cash in in the Bottom of the 3rd.
-
COVID also eliminates Michigan from the tournament. News just breaking.
