That's a good question. Typically the reliever acquisitions this team has made in-season have worked out well. Early returns on Norris are not great, though ... and it seems they gave up a decent pitching prospect for him. But it is early. He's here for 2 months. He doesn't have a lot of time to make a good impression. We'll probably get 10 or 15 more innings out of him the entire season.
-
I know Ashby's debut did not go well, but I'd much rather see him back up here in the pen than have to watch trash cans like Daniel Norris and Sal Romano ever again.
-
Yeah I agree. He is a former Cub, so what? It's not like he was a dirt bag or bad mouthed the Brewers. Just a weird, petty fan reaction.
-
I mean, the've both been thrust into high-leverage set-up rolls since the pretty much got here. Couldn't really anticipate the team losing half their bullpen to COVID. High leverage? Norris was brought in to work the 7th inning with no one on. Promptly walks a guy and gives up a shot. He's utterly useless.
-
I get that our bullpen is far from healthy, but it doesn't look like we really did enough at the deadline to help it. These additions haven't been very good.
-
My God, Yelich is bad.
-
Sal Romano is an absolute albatross of a pitcher. Can't understand even giving him a roster spot.
-
To be clear I am not saying the Reds are better. I think we are. Just saying that a 6 game lead with 2 months to play is really not huge and schedule matters.
-
Woodruff was very effective tonight per usual, and per usual was not rewarded for his efforts.
-
This team needs to clean some things up. Our division lead is not insurmountable, and the Reds have a AAA schedule the rest of the way.
-
Thanks for posting a list & welcome to the board. Also a huge +1 to him for using the word "complement" rather than "compliment" when comparing one player to an existing player.

Brewers trade for 1B Rowdy Tellez from Blue Jays
adambr2 replied to Eye Black's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Just want to point out for next time the offense struggles and we point the finger at Andy Haines, that both Adames and Tellez got here and couldn't hit a lick this year with their previous teams and started lighting it up as soon as they got in our lineup. -
What a moment.
-
Yeah a strikeout pitcher is definitely better in this spot. Suter gave up some runs in the 10th earlier this year. Might not be a better option though as you pointed out. To be fair Suter is almost an 8/K per 9 pitcher for his career and almost 9/9 this season. I know we don't think of him as a strikeout pitcher but the difference between him and the other available ones as far as K rate goes were probably minimal.
-
Great job by Suter. Pitching has done everything possible to get us a win. Got to come up with a big hit.
-
Such a disappointing offensive performance.
-
Please score a run now. We are very ill equipped to handle any extra inning bullpen battle.
-
What a terrible umpire. As is the case most nights.
-
Man I hate that guy. Good move, though. I guess I'll have to try to learn to like him.
-
Arby's for a quick breakfast is super underrated. Unfortunately it's almost impossible to find one that does breakfast.
-
Is it possible they can just trade for another PJ Tucker type at the deadline again? I don't really know much about NBA contracts and how it would work, but just throwing out the possibility.
-
I totally forgot about the one year wonder that was Jim Henderson. What a strange career.
-
Feels good for Polanco to be the last guy tonight.
-
The Pirates' 9th inning strategy appears to be to stand there and hope Devin can't find the zone.
-
Rowdy, Rowdy, Rowdy, Rowdy!!!!
