Come on Brauny, you are SO due.

He's just not seeing the ball well right now, at least the times I've seen him up.

Tie game. Bottom of the order is up. So who does the brainiac put in, our closer to strike out the side. Now if the brewers score either KrapRod or Axturd will have to save the game. Brilliant bullpen management once again....

Sigh. Brauny is just off right now.

I was thinking pretty much the same thing.

 

Brewers striking out at an alarming rate. Let's try for K #14.

So if Hendy manages a hold here and we score in the 10th..will Axxy get the save?

 

He might get the save CHANCE, but highly unlikely he actually pitches well enough for the save.

 

Great bullpen management.

Pathetic. This whole team is pathetic.

 

Bullpen outside of Henderson is trash. All our hitters are swinging at pitches out of the plate. Useless. Roenicke needs to be gone. I've seen enough. This team has quit, and in the games when we are magically in it, his clown car management style blows those, too.

The sarcasm here should've been on the notion that the Brewers might actually put together enough hits in close proximity to score a run and actually have a lead.

 

Today the pitching hasn't been great but the offense has been mostly putrid. This looks like the offense that went through that crappy 1-9 stretch or whatever about 2 weeks ago.

Hang on to your butts. Here comes the bullpen.

Except technically the bullpen has been participating in this game since the 5th.

 

Sorry, I should have specified "in the ninth".

Jean Segura doesn't have the range required to play shortstop.

I just had a bad vision of the speedy Jose "exactly 1.0 Altuves" Altuve scoring the winning run. That has more to do with his speediness and pluckiness than any particular lack of faith in Jim Henderson. (Though you never know when it will be Jim's turn in Reliever Roulette.)
Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.

Astros looking to bunt. Roenicke is thinking "Great idea! I'll use that in the 11th!"

If that were a Brewer at the plate, they'd have swung and missed.

 

Can't believe the Astros are showing more plate discipline than....oh never mind.

Time for a double play.

This is no fault of Henderson's.

 

I wonder if there has ever been a conversation previously about him pitching more than one inning. He hasn't done it yet with the brewers, so if after he pitched his inning, which he normally does, he thought he was done, I can see how this would effect this innings performance.

 

This bullpen situation is an absolute nightmare.

I didn't want to say that, turborickey. I was being hopeful.

 

Come on Henderson, throw strikes. Gah, ball 4. Bases loaded.
