"Here comes Bill Castro, spotted something he didn't like." Was it Julio on the mound?
The part I italicized is almost verbatim what the S.O. said.

 

With our DSL not working tonight, I had to battle through a dialup connection that is as slow as tonight's relief pitching is bad - in order to make this post:

 

For all that is good and holy, do not let Jorge Julio pitch for Milwaukee. Ever. Again. I don't make these requests very often, so the Brewers really should heed me.

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.

jeez, gameday has Hardy flying out to some fan 10 rows into the stands in left
Probably would've been if it wasn't so humid in Miami. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Doesn't seem like the ball's traveling very well at all..hopefully they can string together a few gappers.

Wasn't Catalanotto #20 when he first came here? He is now #27. We all know how great the last guy to wear that number was.
They had to test the grittiness and gamer quotiant of Catalanotto before they gave him Joe Dillons number.

Actually I was referring to Brad Nelson, but fair enough.

Am I the only one that wishes they still had Duffy instead of Gerut? At least Duffy made an attempt at taking pitches and working a count.
Gerut is a better hitter than Duffy. To be honest I think Duffy looked more lost than Nelson up there, he swung at tons of junk off the plate.

Actually that was the worst inning since the last time Julio pitched.

 

Julio hadn't given up a run in his previous 4 outings, 5 2/3 innings total.

 

All in mop up duty. His outings in Minny weren't bad, but he was still walking guys and it took way too many pitches. The guy just isn't good.

I'd rather have the guy who get's on base more than the guy who sees more pitches. I think it's a pretty good guess that Gerut is the superior hitter.

Man, Florida just has TERRIBLE defense.

 

I have a question. To me, a team could have the bases loaded and 1 out and hit 5 consecutive 1 RBI singles. It seems though, that if they then get the last 3 outs, it's still characterized as "a missed opportunity". Am I missing something? How many runs before it's OK to leave the bases loaded?

This takes me back to the Aquino game. I'm not completely furious that Macha gave Julio a shot in that inning. What makes me scratch my head is that he had no Plan B ready when Julio tanked. Macha has always seemed to have a fairly quick hook when a reliever obviously doesn't have it. Tonight brought me back to the old time Yostings where the bullpen phone wouldn't ring until the game was out of reach. Lets hope lessons have been learned.

Anyone notice Julio's reaction when he walked off the mound after being yanked? Looks like he had some strong words or word for Kendall. Wish I could see a replay of it.
