Being down 2-1 instead of up 4-1 makes a big difference.
-
The frustrating thing here is that Buehler is not bringing his A game tonight, and we are not taking advantage.
-
That’d be my mindset. No tomorrow. All that special schedule stuff (which worked well up to this point) is out the window when it’s do or die. As long as he's effective and not in imminent risk of injury there's really no limit. If he starts to lose it you have to move on to the next guy just like with anyone else.
-
Wouldn't Grandy be the CF if Cain were to get hurt? No Broxton in this series. Yelich would move to CF in that scenario. Yep. They could always put Santana or Perez in the OF. They are a catcher injury away from Perez behind the plate in half the games they play. That's not a reason not to PH Grandy, who has played no CF for us.
-
An adrenaline powered 4 innings from Hader is not outside the realm of possibility.
-
I don't get why we didn't use Grandy. It's not like they were going to pull Buehler, and now they'll just use a lefty later when we want to use Grandy and waste him.
-
Schoop is absolutely worthless. And that was one of his better ABs.
-
Damnit. It's first and third and 0 out if Aguilar doesn't swing at a pitch at his eyes. I know, can't assume the same sequence.
-
That was freaking awful, Aguilar. Awful.
-
Well, at least it didn't get to 3-1. Got to concentrate and have a good offensive night. Chacin should not touch a bat tonight.
-
Get him out. This is still the same dude who lost a 21-5 game to this team. He's an awful matchup.
-
Chacin not sharp at all today.
-
I'm confused. Suter was told he couldn't be in the dugout because he's on the 60 day and therefore not on the 40. Wouldn't that also apply to Vogt? At least Suter has played this season.
-
Almost positive they were actually favored in Game 4.
-
Really unlikely. His splits aren't really that extreme for that kind of assignment. It might work out but Hader is probably going to draw a tough lefty way before Miley and Cedeno probably first before Miley too. Miley has got to be strictly in case of emergency today. If he's pitching we are deep into extra innings.
-
I can't imagine a walkoff HR by any Brewer tonight being any less enjoyable than a walkoff HR by any other Brewer.

Option/Arbitration decisions for 2019
adambr2 replied to adambr2's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
At this point I think both Schoop and Moose won't be back. Schoop is looking more and more like an easy pass. Moose is tougher and I'd probably be willing to do the 1/15 option to preserve the depth we have in the IF, but I wouldn't want to go multiple years which is probably what he's seeking. He did have a bad experience in free agency last time though so who knows. I'd be happy to have Granderson back as a bench bat if the price is right. I agree on Soria, and judging by Stearns' track record he doesn't seem to be intetested in paying those kinds of price tags for the volatility of relievers. My guess is he will go out in late July next year and find the next Soria as a cheap rental, that seems to be the pattern when we're contending. -
I thought going to JJ in the 7th was a great call on many levels. First you get him some work a little earlier so that if he struggles you've got other high end options available. Secondly it gets him a nice clean inning, he is available for long work tomorrow and gets a good outing behind him first, builds some confidence again. I wasn't crazy about not taking a shot for Knebel when his shot came up in the 6th but it worked out and probably doesn't affect his availability for tonight.
-
As HiAndTight said the offensive situation matters probably just as much. Heck say Chacin goes 6 up and 6 down and we load the bases with 1 out in the 2nd with the 9 spot coming up. You have to at least consider taking a shot, don't you?
-
Kratz did his best Counsell and said Burnes is still available for tomorrow.
-
I am getting greedy, but I would like the option of having Burnes (over Soria) for an inning tomorrow. Absolutely....but is there any reason if he gets through the 9th clean, he can't go one tomorrow? I also wonder about the availability of Woodruff. He's likely available to come in for an inning or two.....right? Knebel and his rubber arm, Peralta, Hader, JJ....Burnes...I'm feeling good about the pen. We just need to hope that the young budding ace for the Dodgers lets us put a couple up on the board early... Let's conservatively assume Chacin only goes 3. Hader is definitely good for 2, Jeffress for 2, Knebel for 1, Soria for 1. That's already 9 innings without even touching guys like Woodruff or Burnes or getting into really deep options like Peralta or Guerra or Davies or Cedeno. They're good. They could easily cover a long extra inning game tomorrow if they really need to.
-
I mean the only reason he probably won't is that he's going to be far down the list of preferable options. But if we're in the 14th inning and we've used up everyone else he sure as hell is not unavailable, agreed.
-
1 game. For a chance to go to the World Series. Let's do this.
