Why was Greinke removed? Oh yeah, Veras is the 7th inning guy. This crap makes my head explode.

 

Greinke was at 115 pitches.

This is Jack Burton in the Pork Chop Express, and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin' out there.

I don't really have any confidence in any of the Brewer RP right now. April can be funny like that with bullpens though. I'm sad that Veras is still out there to face Altuve though when he hasn't shown the ability to command his pitches at all tonight.

 

Agreed. April and September/October can fool a lot of people.

You'd rather have a starter go back out in the 7th having given up 9 baserunners and 115 pitches thrown in an April game?

 

 

No, that's why I asked why?

I don't like letting Veras work out of this jam...If we get out of this, we are lucky.

 

I didn't like it either but it is certainly a gray area. You need the RP to get some pitches in to find their stuff so you have to have a little longer leash in April. However the fact the team has scuffled out of the gate and are playing one of the worst teams in baseball and blew a big lead would make this such a devastating loss that I'd be managing it a bit differently than if we were say 12-6 or something.
