We are playing the Kansas City Cardinals?

[1992casey]

Oops. Fixed.

[AZBrewCrew]

We are playing the Kansas City Cardinals?

Yes. St. Louis hacked KC's system too and renamed the Royals.

[Invader3K]

Yes. St. Louis hacked KC's system too and renamed the Royals.

 

It wasn't enough for them to ruin one city with their brand of baseball.

[1992casey]

The TV coverage has been corrected in the lead. The game is on Fox Sports 1 rather than FSWI.

[stoutdude04]

Crew behind in the first again. Seems like a recurring theme this year.

[folly412]

Edgar's boys are a fun team to watch. Our team, not at all.

[brewmann04]

We all come down hard on Lohse and garza for their pitching woes but Nelson has been just as bad and they have to start thinking if he should be sent down.

He has had two really bad starts that inflated his ERA(one good start between them). Sending him down would be a pretty bad idea and quite the overreaction. I see no point in sending him down.

[brewmann04]

Respect your thought just disagree even though not sure sending to Colorado Springs will do him any good

[1992casey]

Nice outfield assist by Peterson to cut down Alex Gordon at the plate.

[brewmann04]

This Petersen has a very accurate arm.

[NievesNoNO]

Another disappointing start. I also don't think sending Nelson down will accomplish much. Why do I feel like if he and Wily Peralta were pitching in St. Louis or Atlanta or ??? they'd be classified as two of the best young pitchers in the game. It's frustrating with those two because you see the stuff and (I) wonder what team they'll be on when 'it clicks' for them.

[brewmann04]

Braun is very frustrating to watch

[treego14]

Yes, what is wrong with Braun? The thumb? The lack of "juice?" The lack of popularity he once enjoyed? Will he ever be as good as he once was?

[Jaylyn]

nice K there Scotter, looked like he was swinging a towel!

Neither are really young at this point. Both 26.

[brewmann04]

If they get a good offer for Braun make the move.

[Jaylyn]

If they get a good offer for Braun make the move.

that should go for anyone on the 25 man roster.

[MrTPlush]

If they get a good offer for Braun make the move.

 

Never going to happen. It was a wishful thought when he got on that hot streak, but now that reality is back there is no team getting near him. Even if we ate enough money teams would still have a laundry list of issues with him.

[AKCheesehead]

Well, one positive from tonight was that I didn't have to see that car wash lady.

 

Nice game for Shane, too.

[rondoman]

Craig Counsell 3 year contract lmao. Saying he's happy with the teams effort gtfo.

[brewmann04]

Nice day for the pen tonight but another loss. But guys could not get the hits tonight. Onto to the next city and see if we can avoid the sweep

[TheCrew07]

KC even tried to help with the E in the 8th and the PB in the 9th...
