I really thought after the multiple aces proclamation and the "just wait til Williams....Black....Nelson....Suter....Rasmussen gets here" haven't amounted to anything at this level, he would have cooled it. But no, that hype train just keeps picking up steam.
-
It's going to be a long offseason for this team trying to figure out what went wrong this year. Unfortunately they don't really seem to be headed on an upward trajectory for next year either.
-
Is it possible that guys like Devin Williams and Ray Black aren't going to be able to just step in and be unhittable and lift us to playoff baseball?
-
Of course.
-
Where would Counsell go? Nobody else is likely to offer him a manager’s job and I don’t see him leaving to take a coaching job. I think it’s more likely that he would be fired than leave voluntarily, and I doubt if he will be fired. Counsell is considered a top 5 manager. He would be hired in abo615 minutes. People said the same things about Ron Roenicke and I don't think he's had a managerial gig since then. Not saying you're wrong about where he may be considered, but I think the managerial hiring process is a little bit more complex than that and just impossible to predict.
-
Yeah I have to agree with you. The 3rd time through the order stuff is fine when you have an elite bullpen. When you have a terrible one and Houser has been your best lately and he's at 74 pitches, you might as well just let it ride with him.
-
Alright, let's get one more baserunner and get the tying run up there...
-
I think Stearns has done ok. I never would have thought that Burnes and Peralta would flop so bad that they can't even make the MLB roster much less start. I would have thought someone like Jacob Barnes or Taylor Williams could step up in the pen. It just never happened.
-
This team is just not very good. It's not hard to see. The pitching generally stinks. They have a few good hitters. You would think on paper that they should be at least the same as last year, but it's becoming pretty clear that the 2018 team massively overperformed.
-
Need baserunners and Cain swings at a 2-1 pitch a foot high.
-
One of those situations where maybe if we got a late rally and won this it would be the turning point of our season. But we thought that about the Nationals game a couple weeks ago.
-
Man talk about spin. I guess by that logic, every 5+ ERA pitcher has trade value. I literally said in that thread that Chacin could probably end up being unclaimed if waived, that thing literally ended up happening, and you still sit here completely unwilling to admit you're wrong, all the while the other guy you said had value is getting shelled. While the Brewers giving up little for a couple garbage pitchers that have absolutely nothing to do with Chacin or Albers somehow proves your point. Hilarious stuff, man. Get a clue.
-
This team is bad.
-
It was me and it was a fair comment. In fact, since that comment the Brewers actually traded for Lyles and Pomeranz to pitchers statistically worse at the time than either Chacin or Albers Yeah, nah, it wasn't. Salary factors into trade value as well, it's not just ERA. Chacin has been waived and unclaimed and unconditionally released since then, so yeah. Obviously he's hurt now, but he was pitching poorly and worthless before then. Albers is worth nothing as well. No contender would give up anything of value. And just because the Brewers traded for those guys doesn't mean they gave up anything. Ponce was worth nothing. He could have been had on the Rule 5 last year. Dubon is obviously not valued much but I thought that was a pretty tremendous overpay for the guys they got.
-
Someone here quite recently told me to "get a clue" and that I didn't understand how things work because I said that Chacin and Albers had zero trade value.
-
LOL. Maybe stop walking guys all the time. That would be helpful.
-
Spangenberg looks like Ryan Braun at 3rd with that throw.
-
Most important series of the year and the offense is just completely hapless.
-
BA: "Mikolas had been a struggling pitcher, but he's got it dialed in tonight." What a shock.
-
I would highly suggest everyone just avoid/ignore the MiLB box scores tonight and move on.
-
Between dumb crap like that and baserunning like Carpenter, the Cardinals have been doing everything in their power to hand us this game.
-
So you don't PH for Houser and then he doesn't even start the 6th. Makes sense, Craig.
-
Grisham going to need to pick it up a bit if he's going to see much time in September.
-
Yeah, the thing is that age has finally caught up to Molina and he's pretty terrible now offensively, but you'd never know any difference against us.
-
That was about as terrible of a baserunning sequence for Carpenter as you'll ever see.
