I can't really explain it but there's something I just can't stand about Billy Hamilton. Honestly he's a pretty terrible hitter who has no good baseball qualities other than being really fast. Unfortunately he can never get on base to actually use that except seemingly against us.

[adambr2]

And there it goes, already down 2-0.

[adambr2]

The Brent Suter honeymoon is over. Soft tossing and now no command either? Yuck.

[PinaMadness]

I swear the offense heating up is going to coincide with the pitching going into the tank starting yesterday and we'll all be complaining about how the offense has to carry the team. That's the way it goes with this team. Neither phase of the game can ever coexist with the other.

[BrewCrewBlueDevil]

The announcers have not mentioned the Neil Walker trade. I wonder if a member of the 25 man roster is involved? Too bad Addison Reed is not included.

[dacbrewers]

Joey Votto getting more respect than Barry Bonds...pitch to the guy.

[PinaMadness]

Feldman put that 3-1 pitch on a tee for Shaw.

[sauveb]

70 pitches in the first inning. I hope this one ends before game time tomorrow.

[rcc]

Keeping Hunter off the bases is a good sign.

[rcc]

Shaw with a 3 run homer to get the lead. Here's hoping the guys have a good game tonight and finally win one.

 

Now that Villar is hitting Stearns goes out and gets a second baseman. But defensively it will be an upgrade. Walker is a very good player.

[pacopete4]

Can Villar play CF?

[OnaBadger58]

Looks like Keon changed his hand position again. Looks like Aguilar up there.

[adambr2]

Broxton is getting rung up on a ridiculous amount of pitches outside the zone lately. He's going to strike out enough on his own without the umpires continuing to help out the opposing pitcher.

Broxton is getting rung up on a ridiculous amount of pitches outside the zone lately. He's going to strike out enough on his own without the umpires continuing to help out the opposing pitcher.

 

I know Fox Trac had it off the plate but the pitch looked over the plate. Strange. And Keon went straight to the dugout.

[OnaBadger58]

Can Villar play CF?

He played limited OF in Houston. I feel like if he could, he would have been out there a time or two already. Just a guess

[OnaBadger58]

Villar going to opposite field with authority is a great thing to see. Haven't seen it all year

Gameday had it clearly off the plate as well. It was a pretty nice frame.

Its one of the reasons I'm not nuts about the Walker trade. Been waiting all season for him to get it going and now that he does he's going to spend the rest of it on the bench. Now we'll have to pay a few million for Walker and in addition have no new information on whether Villar is worth investing for going forward or not.

 

If I thought the division was winnable for us I'd probably feel differently. But I don't think it is.

 

If I'm wrong and Neil Walker sparks us and carries us to a division title I'll happily eat crow.

I can understand both sides. Still have some many games against the Cubs and Pirates, so little hot streak puts this team right back in it. Playing time will be interesting coming up here.

[PinaMadness]

Send em Sedar strikes again.

[DuWayne Steurer]

That was a good send. Just a good throw and good play.

[pacopete4]

You gotta try sometimes. That was a fine send. Perfect throw got him.

[OnaBadger58]

That was a good send. Just a good throw and good play.

Agreed. Wish Thames would have seen Mesoraco blocking the plate so he could have tackled him into the first row.

[PinaMadness]

A good send? It was pretty clear Thames had no shot to score once Duvall fielded the ball, as evidenced by being thrown out by 10 feet.
