2018-04-30: Brewers (Chacín) at Reds (Finnegan) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-5; historic night for Hader -- Save, 2.2 IP & 8 K!]

[Jeff-B]

Miracles never cease!

[MoreTrife]

Thank God reds bullpen is atrocious.

[adambr2]

No reason not to be throwing our best relievers at them now. They're plenty rested.

[wildcat83]

Santana you trickster you... Slapping weak ground balls around the infield till the opposing OF move in just enough...

[brewerswinNLcentral]

finally..domingo santana had a huge hit there..props to yelich and brawny for extending the inning, then the double steal...

i LOVE to watch this team against triple A competition

[brewerswinNLcentral]

and BTW, bring up dubon already

[trwi7]

Thank God reds bullpen is atrocious.

 

They should've gotten out of the inning with 0 runs.

[wildcat83]

Thank God reds bullpen is atrocious.

 

Half of it is, but the guys we got to have thrown pretty well this year.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Hader is filth.

[topper09er]

Hader threw 1 ball, not impressed

[wildcat83]

How long do we have Hader under control for?

[markedman5]

Hader just made Votto look like a little leaguer......and then punched out the next guy too just for fun.....lol

[MoreTrife]

and BTW, bring up dubon already

 

I don't expect much from him unfortunately. Zero walks. That's concerning.

[markedman5]

How long do we have Hader under control for?

 

2022 I think

[wildcat83]

Jesus can hit.

 

Brewers should send a scout to talk to the Reds ball boy.

[wallus]

Jesus can hit.

 

Can he hit a curve ball though?

[wildcat83]

How long do we have Hader under control for?

 

2022 I think

 

Whatever year it is will be the last year we can afford him....

[PinaMadness]

Jesus can hit.

 

Can he hit a curve ball though?

All right, let's not start a holy war.

[wildcat83]

and BTW, bring up dubon already

ONE walk... Get your facts straight. The .322 Avg, .850 OPS, and 18 game hitting streak can't be worse than Arcia right now. Even for a few weeks till Arcia gets going. I still see Arcia as the SS going forward.

 

Cruising through the CS stats I see Broxton hasn't fixed the K problem... 31 already.

[topper09er]

Jesus can hit.

 

Can he hit a curve ball though?

 

Yes

[wallus]

Dubon's own manager said he isn't ready.

[wildcat83]

Thanks for the visual

[topper09er]

Josh "1981 Rollie Fingers" Hader

[wildcat83]

Dubon's own manager said he isn't ready.

 

Didn't say he's ready to stay, but if he's got a hot bat, he can't be worse for a week or two...

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

5 Ks for Hader. He is at 23 pitches and due up 4th. Tough call.
