Feel bad for Jimmy. He's worked really hard to get back but looking unlikely that he will ever be the same again.
-
So Jimmy may not be a late inning guy.
-
Right now to me, Counsell's decision last night to bring in Hader in a tie with the bases loaded in the 8th has currently saved our season for now. It was later than I liked, but it was just in the nick of time. Hader is likely the only one who would have been able to get out of that mess with only 1 run of damage, and the offense was able to do just enough to overcome it.
-
I mean I don't think it's any secret that because of all the injuries we are indeed forced to play AAAA guys at certain positions right now. Still awesome seeing them have moments, yes this is a sport where Tyler Saladino hit grand slams in back to back games.
-
Austin just had a September moment.
-
Other way around.
-
Against Lester? I'm not sure we've ever scored 3 runs off him. He owns us.
-
Someone should remind Houser that it was Addison Russell, a piece of human trash, and he's not even hurt.
-
Can't break through with the bases loaded and nobody out, now putting runners on for free and committing silly errors. All with your season at stake. Not good.
-
If they have any chance of making a run these last two weeks, they need Hiura and Moose back in the worst way. 6-9 is just a nightly black hole right now.
-
I'm no doctor, but I have a hard time understanding how Braun can be in a condition where he can't even pinch hit with the season potentially on the line in a late tie game and literally 15 hours later be in good enough condition to not only play but start.
-
Crap. Good to have a lead, but really had a chance to blow it open early.
-
I have never seen someone who is so reactionary based on one single performance. No reliever moves from good to bad or bad to good or anything to anything based on one single outing. And combining AAA outings and rehab outings with MLB outings to establish performance rating and expectations is a sure way to end up disappointed. This is a completely different level of competition.
-
No one is going back and forth. I said before the series that if they win 3 out of 4 against the Cubs they have a shot. If they win tomorrow they will have done that. If not, oh well. Tomorrow is their season as far as I'm concerned, but 2 GB with 20 to play would not be insurmountable.
-
Unbelievable. If you can win one more tomorrow, you're not dead yet.
-
The Perez AB was comically bad for this level. At least Arcia put it in play.
-
I cannot believe he did not get an AB for one of the 3 bums that just hit (and yes I know Spangenberg got a hit).
-
I am so shocked that Orlando Arcia couldn't get the job done.
-
Those two ABs couldn't have been more contrasting. Such a terrible AB by Perez.
-
Nevermind, it's Perez.
-
What an AB. Come on Moose.
-
Ugh. I thought Thames got that.
-
I don't think people are melting down. Just would like to treat today and tomorrow as must win games, because they are. These are, in essence, playoff games for us. Regardless of outcome we still probably won't make it but these 2 games have to be treated differently. And you still need other pitchers not named Hader to do their jobs. It happened a season ago as much as people want to just remember Hader. We don't have those pitchers from a season ago. Corey Knebel is not here. Corbin Burnes is not here, Brandon Woodruff is not here. Jeremy Jeffress is not here, Joakim Soria is not here. Yes you're still going to have to have to get other guys to perform as Freddy did tonight. But for today and tomorrow you have to do everything possible to maximize your chance of winning.
-
I agree completely, but the math is the math. If you are playing to have the best chance at the playoffs, Hader is the only move in the 8th, right? I mean, I am open to a good argument that it's not, but I am having a hard time finding one myself. Maybe we put a 7'run inning, and it's moot. Hope so. Pomeranz SO/9 is over 14 as a Brewer. Counsell probably should have went with Hader but it’s not like Hader has been 2018-Hader. Counsell has his hands tied everywhere with this roster. He's a nice strikeout pitcher, but for his career he's at a much more modest 9 per 9. I mean Pomeranz is definitely not Hader and I know you're not saying he is. Hader has had his rough points this season but most were in July and he does seem to be back to his normal self.
