Brewers acquire Swarzak from White Sox for Ryan Cordell
adambr2 replied to owbc's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
An employee of the Yankees texted my brother and said of Swarzak "Congratulations, you just acquired the the worst human being alive " Said he's just an absolute jerk. Lol. I know different people have different opinions and I'm not concerned about it, just thought I'd share. -
It's not an exaggeration to say these games count for double the others. We have 10 games against the Cubs left. Realistically, I think we need 7 out of 10 to have a shot.
-
Not even close. Not even close? I wouldn't say it's a must sweep either, but I would definitely say it's a 'must not get swept.' Put it this way, I think it's a 'take 2 out of 3 or better or the Cubs are going to start running away with this' situation.

Brewers acquire Swarzak from White Sox for Ryan Cordell
adambr2 replied to owbc's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
At least we don't have to debate whether or not we are in 1st place anymore. -
Ugh, back to back duds for Burnes.
-
So maybe we can't make that assumption. If the White Sox got Jimenez as the headliner from the Cubs, what makes you think we can tell the A's that Brinson is off the table and still land Gray?
-
I guess the Yankees can just throw their next World Series banner on the pile, while the Brewers celebrate their 1982 World Series LOSS for the forseeable future and hang WILD CARD CHAMPION BANNERS at Miller Park. Fun. Yeah because Sonny Gray is going to change any of that.
-
It would be so like Dusty Baker to let Scherzer go 120+ pitches in a 14 run game. Lol.
-
I can't stand Harper, but doing it right now to me would just reek of sour grapes and frustration because we're getting our butts kicked. Agreed. Lind is the one who deserves it at this pt. I don't think anyone deserves it. It was 8-0 in the 3rd and we were giving it to him. I wouldn't feel comfortable with an 8-0 lead in the 3rd with our pen, either.

I was going to turn this game off when it was 8-0. Now it's like the car wreck that I can't look away from.

Predicting a Black Friday of sorts tomorrow. Both Peralta and Blazek DFA. Maybe Torres or Drake, too.
-
Oh my God. This is just hilarious at this point.
-
Craig is going to burn our entire pen in a blowout.
-
I'd say just about any other team, yes. But since Yost the Brewers pretty much let every team do whatever they want to them. Really? I have no problem with it. It (was) the 3rd inning. Play the game. We blew a 8-1 lead late like 4 days ago and the Nats have about the worst pen in the league. If they want to pile it on and we can't stop them, more power to them. Would you feel comfortable with a 8-0 lead in the 3rd with our pen?
-
Please don't ever say this again. LOL.

Oh come on. Stearns' fault that Blazek sucked? He was great in the CS rotation, he was the logical choice to get a start in a pinch. What would you have done? Nelson, Anderson, and Garza have all been better than expected out of the rotation. They're down 2 starters. I'm done with the excuses for Stearns. He can wear his mistakes just like anyone else. He failed to find quality arms for this pen. He has failed to make in season adjustments like allowing your best options at SP actually be in the rotation. He can wear his mistakes. He's a grown man. This will be another wasted season for the historic Milwaukee Brewers. No one said he hasn't made mistakes, but blaming him for assembling a rebuilding pen for a rebuilding team is silly. They signed Feliz. They called up Hader in June and he has been great. They put Wily in the pen. They had patience with Hughes and Drake who were both great in June and most of July until the blowup games. They traded for Webb. They just went out and got Swarzak. Some of these moves worked, some didn't, but they were certainly trying. I hear plenty of blame for Stearns on the pen but rarely on any specific options on what should have been done. They've rotated plenty of guys through the pen -- Blazek, Webb, Marinez, Espino, Milone, and others. But people just assume Wang, Wilkerson, Archer, and others would be better. If the list B players had been called up and shelled we'd be blaming Stearns for not giving the lost A guys a shot.

Counsell can't even manage the pen in a blowout. The game is over in the 3rd and instead of letting Blazek wear it he's going to blow 6 innings from the pen right before a 3 game series against the Cubs.

"Peralta warming in the pen" Uh, why?? Just leave him out there for 150 pitches and DFA the bum after the game.
-
LOL. This guy is an absolute trash can.
-
[sarcasm]Blazek is awesome![/sarcasm]
-
Well, hopefully Ryan Cordell will be the only collateral damage to the system before we figure out that we have no business being buyers, much less on rentals.
-
Also just walked the pitcher, gave up a 2nd HR, and had 4 ER to his name, all in the course of 2+. Edit: Make that 3 HR and 5 ER.
-
Blazek is garbage.
