First WS in 29 years, elimnation game, and EVERYONE predicted this. EVERYONE.

 

And it came true.

 

I want to break things.

 

I'm so pissed right now, words can't even describe.

Too true, the second I heard Marcum was going to start this game I almost didn't even want to watch because I knew what just happened was going to happen. I am wishing I didn't turn the TV. Need to get the bats going or this is going to be a long painful game.

No they didn't. Read the board. Most people picked the Brewers to win, and they were favored.
What RoCo is referring to, I believe, is putting Marcum on the mound.

It would hurt more if the Brewers were the better team. Like I said before the series, it's Packers and Bears. Bears won the meaningless divisional title and GB showed they were boss and won when it counted to get to the Super Bowl.

 

The Brewers are the Chicago Bears.

The Brewers were the better team all year. The pitching just fell apart.

I understand why RR started Marcum today, and at the same time I dont. I know you want to have your ace for G7 but you have to worry about getting to Game 7 first.

I understand not using Gallardo. I agree 100% with holding off Yo for game 7. It's pretty clear something is wrong with Marcum though, and I think Narveson/the pen was the way to go.

No matter, it's over now....focus on the next 8 innings.

Attaboy Corey.

 

Seriously, get Narvy in for 2 innings. Hawkins for 2 innings. Saito, K-Rod, Ax.

 

There is no reason they shouldn't be planning on having Saito-K-rod-Ax pitching 3 innings tonight. No matter what the score is, play those guys.

Did RR seriously expect Marcum to suddenly turn things around?

 

Now, we will go down without giving our best pitcher a chance to extend the series on 3-days rest. This is the playoffs, not the regular season. Someone should let RR know.

No....but Ennder did

Since Wolf did I am sure RR thought Marcum would too.
Wolf didn't have an 8 1/2 ERA for the last month. He had a bad start in AZ. Marcum has basically sucked completely since the beginning of September, and has shown absolutely no sign of getting out of it.
