Why? He's the exact same player that no one was willing to pay big for last offseason when he had three years of control. Now someone is going to pony up the prospects with one less year of control? What changed?
-
Hader wouldn't have been pitching to Freeman in the 8th inning if Williams had a functional throwing hand. I disagree. Hader is the exact match-up you'd want facing a power-hitting left-handed first baseman in a tied game in the bottom of the 8th. Was there one single time this season when both Williams and Hader were available that they went with Hader in the 8th and Devin in the 9th in the name of matchups?
-
Williams was absolutely a major factor last night. It's not just the 8th inning. Not having Williams for potentially 1 to 2 innings forces you to make other decisions with your staff that you might otherwise not make. Heck, it's possible that Counsell has 6 innings from his pen mapped out last night, goes for the extra runs in the 4th last night, pulls Lauer after 3 and Lauer/Strickland never blow it in the 4th, if Williams is available. Even if you think that's a stretch, having no Williams likely forces Counsell to lean on Ashby much more than he was really comfortable with. Not having Williams reduces the length in the pen which forces your hand on earlier game decisions or at the very least can influence them.

Devin Williams really, really screwed over his teammates with his immaturity. We will never know if things turn out differently if he is available but it certainly did not help.

Stearns mentioned for Met's Presidents job

Yeah, the Brewers' problem is not that they don't spend enough money. It's that when they've spent big money, they're spending it on the wrong people. -
The struggles of Yelich and Hiura - Let the numbers talk!
adambr2 replied to jonescm128's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Yelich's "nobody needs help facing you" jab at Darvish has really aged poorly. -
I'm sure the time will come when I will appreciate the ride of the 2021 season. But that time isn't today. Today it just feels like another disappointment.
-
I really think they're going to have to make big moves this off season. It's likely going to mean dangling Hader and yelich in front of the Yankees with only prospects in return. Yelich contract is so toxic right now they have to find a way to dump it No one is dangling Yelich. He is worthless. He is one of the worst contract values in baseball. He is not going anywhere.
-
We had basically a completely healthy roster. No Acuna for the Braves and they still won in 4. The Braves are better.
-
Yep. This window is going to be way shorter than it otherwise would have been because of that awful contract hampering our flexibility.
-
Get bent, Christian. You're terrible.
-
Smelly Yeli strikes out on 3 pitches to end the season. So fitting.
-
This umpire can rot. Adames had to chase that because Ball 4 was called a strike almost that far off the plate.
-
Not a strike. Of course blue screws us once more.
-
Whatever it was, it sucked.
-
And we try bunting. So idiotic.
-
This actually sets Yelich up perfectly to either strike out or ground into a DP to end the season.
-
Here we are talking about the Dodgers and the World Series and we can't even make it past Game 4 of the NLDS. Here's to another season of hearing about how special a team that lost the World Series was in rain delays.
-
If they were going to do that before, no way are they doing it now that they are losing.
-
Yelich once was, and now he's not worthy to carry Freeman's jock.
-
I'm so lost. So someone else is pitching the 9th ??
-
It's lunacy. What is he thinking?
-
So you're seriously having Hader leadoff the 9th. No double switch. My God Craig, what in the world are you doing this series?
-
I'm assuming JBJ is coming in on the double switch for Cain. You're surely not having Hader lead off the 9th.
