All of today's games are free on MLB.TV, and they start at approximately the same time: either 2:05, 2:10, or 2:15[space][/space]PM CDT.

Per Counsell "This was the plan all along". Why wouldn't he sit Cravy out of Fridays game if that was the plan all along? Apparently they told Cravy after game last night. Makes no sense with 8 relievers in pen and 2 starters that could throw.

[1992casey]

I think the preference was to shut down Garza and Nelson for the season after their starts earlier this week.

 

It's not unheard of for a starter to pitch between starts in lieu of his bullpen session. Anderson did that earlier this season. I'd say that Cravy's Friday appearance was the equivalent of a bullpen session.

 

As far as the "plan all along," Counsell said a couple of days ago that his plans could change based on Friday and Saturday bullpen usage. It looks like his initial plan fell into place.

I see Braun isn't in the lineup today. Strange.

I see Braun isn't in the lineup today. Strange.

 

It's not a home game so he doesn't get to be removed for a standing ovation. I'm actually surprised he's played as much as he has the last few weeks because there is absolutely nothing to gain by having him on the field. Any injury this late in the season would remove any trade value he added by putting up a very good and relatively healthy season.

I'm enjoying today's game. Tomorrow will stink.

[trwi7]

So Brian talks about how he'll never forget the 2008 season and then proceeds to give the wrong information on what actually happened in game 162.

[sdcheezhd]

One more chance for sure for Carter; probably 1 more for Arenado.

[LouisEly]

3 blown saves in a row for Thorny. Hope he is ok.

 

Still have Barnes, Knebel, and Magnifico if they want to have a bullpen day, correct?

[JimH5]

Domingo Santana might be the worst defensive OF in baseball.

[pacopete4]

Domingo Santana might be the worst defensive OF in baseball.

 

sure.

[LouisEly]

As Porky Pig would say, "Eh-buh-deet, uh-buh-deet, uh-buh-deet, uh that's all folks."

[nate82]

Domingo Santana might be the worst defensive OF in baseball.

 

Khris Davis and Mark Trumbo are going to disagree here.

 

He really needs to be moved to 1B. Hopefully that happens this off season the Brewers have a lot of replacements in the OF for next year.

[CheezWizHed]

Too bad Villar couldn't get his 20th HR.

[ZBTMP]

Too bad Villar couldn't get his 20th HR.

 

After his 2-0 "swing" in the ninth, I don't feel too bad for him.

[TURBO]

Too bad Villar couldn't get his 20th HR.

 

After his 2-0 "swing" in the ninth, I don't feel too bad for him.

 

 

That was lame and selfish. I hope he got a good talking to after that ridiculous display. As much as I sometimes love the guy, it is things like this and his base stupid running mistakes that don't fully allow me to embrace him...lol

I am tired of looking at the Cubs world series thread so I'm bumping this one
