2018-04-25: Brewers (Chacín) at Royals (Hammel) 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-2]

[Greenleaf1]

These teams. Want us. To win.

[pacopete4]

Bring in the Drake to end this one.

My TV must be delayed because it doesn't show us leading by 18 runs

[liveforoctober]

Keep doing you Aguilar. What a steal that dude has been.

[adambr2]

Corbin Burnes got completely rocked tonight. I absolutely hate that all our top pitching prospects have to go through Colorado Springs, there's hardly a pitcher alive that can survive it with good numbers. Even Hader couldn't.

hmmm brauny has 3 more hits tonite... i like it

 

Leaving a lefty reliever making his debut in to face Braun was ... Um.... Odd. I feel better about Counsel now. Lol.

 

Yosted

 

LMAO! I so don't miss that saying in game threads...

[TURBO]

So nice to NOT see Bandy in this line-up.

Maybe it makes MLB seem easy (or sharpens their breaking pitches or location) because those pitchers who survive Colorado Springs tend to do well in Milwaukee.

[topper09er]

We need some electrolytes, bring on the Haderade

[wildcat83]

Barnes to Drake would have been great. Now have to use Barnes and Hader the night before we start a Cubs series is surely not ideal.

[pacopete4]

Feels like Counsell is managing this four run lead against the Royals like it’s game seven of the World Series and I kind of love it.

[markedman5]

Was hoping to get through the the night without using Hader......no such luck

[wildcat83]

Feels like Counsell is managing this four run lead against the Royals like it’s game seven of the World Series and I kind of love it.

 

Would love a big lead more, but yea, I think he has changed from last year on how he handles each game. Come so close last year with a LOT of what ifs hanging out there has to have an effect on him.

[wildcat83]

Haven't seen a ball hit that hard off Hader in a long time. Thankfully way foul.

[topper09er]

Hader now tied for 12th in the NL for Ks

[wildcat83]

Hader = filthy

 

Now score 6-8 runs so the Drake can finish and Hader still available tomorrow

[Greenleaf1]

With Hader already in the game, I'm guessing he comes back out for the 9th even though we're still up 4? I believe he'd get a save since he came into the game with the tying run on deck.

 

If you decide to go with Taylor Williams (or God forbid Oliver Drake), we don't really have one of our best relievers fresh to come in behind him should he get into trouble, so unless the Brewers really add on here, my guess is Hader comes back out.

[TURBO]

I'd rather have saved Hader for the Cubs tomorrow... Let the other guys protect a 4 run lead.

[reillymcshane]

I'd love it if Counsel gave Williams the chance to pitch. He hasn't been out there in five days.

[brewerswinNLcentral]

anyone gonna get a free burger at george webbs if we win 10 in a row....eucker used to love talking about that..i remember it was..oh 1973 and i dont think we won more than 3 in arow..and he would just give you wonderful stories about life...a treasure

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Corbin Burnes got knocked around pretty good in Colorado Springs tonight. I guess we should have known that those guys wouldn't be able to throw gems in that thin air forever.
