Cue Yost making excuses for Hardy and talking about how sure-handed he normally is rather than showing any dismay at our defense costing us a game yet again.

[kiwi brewer]

don't mind the dive by braun. wouldn't have mattered. like the effort.

 

but boy oh boy... what a train wreck error again by the d.

 

weak.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

As I'm screaming to put him on, he hits him.

 

Job done.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

What a waste of a decent start by Soup. Same thing as last year. Whether its giving up runs, or making the pitchers throw an extra 8-10 pitches per game...our D is killing us. Huge snowball effect through the team.

[kiwi brewer]

yeah, can't wait to hear McRib's excuse laden interview tonight instead of calling out his players...

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

This one's on Hardy for now.

 

Ah well, it frees up my Friday night.

[Brewcrewin07]

Seriously?? Ned just double switched Hart out of the game?? He has completely lost it. Good job Ned, remove your best hitter with runs in scoring position(which may be huge later, but probably not), for a slap hitter?? Unbelieveable.....

[madjeff66]

Hardy has to make that play, but the pitches sure did get fat after that error.

 

Ugly, ugly, ugly. Really need 3 in DC and this makes it very tough.

[endaround]

Switching out Hart? In the 6th? I really don't know what to say anymore

[Mass Haas]

Second graders turn two on that ground ball to J.J. Inning should have been over right there.

 

I so can't stand this team right now.

[rluzinski]

Down by 4 with 9 outs to go and Yost takes Hart out for Gwynn? Is he telling me that the white flag is being waved and I should stop wasting my time watching?

[And That]

Ned Yost just put in Tony Gwynn for Corey Hart. Ned Yost, you've jumped the shark.

[SlideBernieSlide]

This team isn't very good.

[markedman5]

Its on Hardy but 1 run against a guy like Perez is pretty pathetic as well.

 

Brewers 2008...."We just find ways to lose"

Ned's trying to pretend he's a manager.

[jhart05]

What the heck happened? I go to put the kid to bed, it's 1-1, I come back and it's 5-1.

 

Good grief.

 

 

Yeah I have to agree with that. I'm also getting sick of him taking Hart out in the double switch.

Weather figures to be nice this weekend. I'm taking a personal time out from this team until at least the homestand. Simply not worth the aggravation.

 

Not giving up yet, but the fact that the thought of maybe giving up on the season arose before Memorial Day tends to reinforce the nagging suspicion that this team is a lot closer to the bottom of the league than the top.

[kiwi brewer]

if anyone can photoshop a McRib jumping the shark i would appreciate it. wow. yost. common sense. not friends.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

I know there's nothing Ned can do about Hardy booting that ROUTINE chance, but taking your best run producer and arguably hottest hitter out in the 6th? Boneheaded and inexcusable.

 

Ned's last stand. DC. Memorial Day Weekend. Glad I'm not there.

[kiwi brewer]

i hope mark a. just saw that double switch and gwynn at bat.

 

wow just wow.

[adambr2]

Is there any good reason why Tony Gwynn Jr. is not down in AAA?

[moofnelson]

incompetent boobs. the whole lot of them.

[And That]

Is there any good reason why Tony Gwynn Jr. is not down in AAA?

Clearly they need him in RF.

 

[cnycerveceros]

this whole team anymore, who can you count on? I'm not defending Ned, but I just can't figure out what he should do.
