How come it seems like just about every time our offense puts up a big inning, our pitcher the very next inning gives up most or all of the lead he just received?

 

I agree with the previous post...Capuano for the most part has pitched poorly since the all-star break last year. Its starting to be pennant race time here, and this team cant afford these kind of performances every time he goes out there.

Cappy looked pretty pissed and surprised at the booing the fans gave him. Looked like he had a look of betrayal from the fans on his face.

 

Maybe he's mad the Ned didn't leave him in long enough to give up 7 runs.

When you generally pitch like crap for a calendar year, I think most fans have the right to be upset.

That's a bit of a straw man argument, isn't it? Who here has said CV needs his innings limited?

 

For one, me. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/embarassed.gif

 

(I think I did. Woulda been in April.)

 

If Villaneuva isn't starting on Wednesday night, I'd have to think Ned is afraid to make the move, and your guess would be as good as mine as to why. How much more evidence do you need that Capuano needs to spend some time in the bullpen?

 

As for the booing, I was happy to hear it. Maybe it'll jolt Capuano into knocking off the useless nibbling. Or maybe we need him sent to the bullpen before that'll happen. Frankly, I feel like I've been betrayed by Capuano lately. So if he feels betrayed, at least it's mutual. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

He was getting squeezed pretty badly tonight. Some not-so-stellar defense behind him totally hurt as well. I'm not ready to give up on him yet.

 

But yeah, CV should be in the rotation over another CV. It's time.

Double to the freaking pitcher.....

 

To be fair to Cappy, Jenkins tried to backhand it and failed to catch the ball.

 

Why does Cappy walk hitters right after getting the lead, he's killing himself again like his last game.

Thanks. I knew someone would step up to the plate.

 

If it's not Ned, it's the umpires. Though at least I'll give you credit for recognizing that it's time to get Villanueva in the rotation. Too bad you're apparently willing to keep giving Crapuano the ball, but there's still time to change your mind. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

So he's not getting squeezed?

 

I'm not a big fan of finesse guys for this reason. I don't disagree that Capuano shouldn't be traded if the right deal came along, but I don't think he's pitched as badly as the score indicates... and you also can't deny that the defense hadn't been exactly helping him out.
