How? He's not on the 40 or the 26 and he can't be outrighted without his consent again. They can't just shuttle him back and forth between the 40 and 26 without options.
-
"Really bad" is relative, but a lackluster season like 2019 is entirely possible. This would both hurt the 2021 Packers and tank the trade value of Rodgers, so I would be less than amused.
-
I don't think it works that way, if he could have been optioned in the first place instead of DFAed he would have been optioned. Since he's off the 40, once he's back on, he's back and they can't do much other than release him after that because he can't be outrighted again unless he just agrees to go back but he'll get his money regardless. I could be wrong, but that is my understanding.
-
I promise not to say anything bad about JBJ for at least 3 games.
-
A perfect bunt and it's all for nothing because the next guy didn't get the job done. Wait, I thought both bunting and the subsequent win after the successful bunt were pretty much automatic.
-
Good intentional walk. Nice move by Counsell and nice job by Suter.
-
Is Counsell aware of the extra innings rule change? Like he does know it was continued this season, correct?
-
We definitely have the market cornered on horrible outfielder contracts.
-
I would guess his alcohol consumption increased markedly in May.
-
He hasn't? When did he struggle when brought in with runners on during an inning?
-
Counsell has this game all lined up for Josh Hader to hold this in the 9th and then Eric Yardley to lose it in the 10th.
-
Hader gets 3 outs and they must be in the 9th or the sky will fall, so sayeth the 2021 version of Craig Counsell.
-
Unfortunately these are the risks you are forced to take when you decide to manage with rigid and inflexible bullpen roles.
-
Gotta give to get. May not dramatically help the team in the short term, but bullpen help is much easier to figure out in July or the offseason. The loss in the bullpen may get fixed up in a month or so. Agreed. You can't pass on great value even when it hurts a bit somewhere else in the short-term, especially when that value is long-term. There are other good relievers out there than Rasmussen and Feyereisen, and they'll need to find some.
-
Adames was a great move, regardless of what anyone thinks of the pen.
-
That's called a Brewer sac bunt.
-
And that is probably accurate, which is a problem.
-
This pen is going to cost us a lot of games unless they do something about it.
-
I agree. Counsell is managing poorly this year.
-
The loss had zero to do with not bunting in the 9th. You don't bunt in that situation in front of a guy who strikes out like 40% of the time when you need a ball in play, and strike out is exactly what he did.
-
His bullpen management flat out sucks. He's completely given up on venturing anywhere outside the box and he seems to have no clue that this is no longer the 2018 Brewers pen.
-
No runs from the offense, just one by the freaking pitcher, 1st and 3rd nobody out with the tying run 90 feet away in the 10th, and they still find a way not to come through. This offense is next level incompetent.
-
No idea how Robertson hasn't been DFAed yet.
-
Lolol. This team can screw up anything.
-
Well, still only down 1 and a runner on 2nd. If we had a reasonably competent offense we could feel ok about this.
