2018-07-12: Brewers (Miley) at Pirates (Taillon) 6:05 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 6-3]

[adambr2]

STOP WALKING GUYS.

[82brewcrew82]

I'm sure he would if he could. He isn't very good.

[PinaMadness]

Miley with the bat. Yeah, who are you fooling, CC?

[82brewcrew82]

HEY! Kratz walked into one.

[adambr2]

I'm sure he would if he could. He isn't very good.

 

I won't pretend to know more than the guys in charge of this club, obviously, but I sure don't understand how a guy like Wade Miley is here and Brandon Woodruff can't get an extended look.

[PinaMadness]

Miley with the bat. Yeah, who are you fooling, CC?

Me, I guess. But he should only be bunting in this situation and he's not.

[TJH123]

What a waste of an AB

[timpep]

If Miley had a target of 60 pitches and he's at around 70 now and starting to struggle... why is he batting with runners at 1st and 3rd?

[adambr2]

So I thought Miley's target tonight was 65 pitches. He's at 78, we have 1st and 3rd and no one out and he's out there hitting for himself? Goodness, why? At the very best he's going 1 more inning, maybe less.

[Roderick]

Why are they not replacing Miley with a real batter here with nobody out and the top of the order behind? I cant figure that out? Any help?

 

Real batter = whoever on bench

[82brewcrew82]

I'm sure he would if he could. He isn't very good.

 

I won't pretend to know more than the guys in charge of this club, obviously, but I sure don't understand how a guy like Wade Miley is here and Brandon Woodruff can't get an extended look.

They weren't sure if Suter was going to be able to go for the double header Saturday. I think Woodruff is/was being held back in case Suter can't go on Saturday.

[adambr2]

Miley with the bat. Yeah, who are you fooling, CC?

Me, I guess. But he should only be bunting in this situation and he's not.

 

He shouldn't have been at the plate at all. All too often CC blows a golden scoring opportunity trying to squeeze another 10 pitches from his starter.

[yfinn6]

Watch Miley come out for one batter and then get replaced.

[TJH123]

With the way this lineup is hitting this is probably the best chance for the rest of the game to score and Wade Miley is sent out to to bat

[PinaMadness]

Why are they not replacing Miley with a real batter here with nobody out and the top of the order behind? I cant figure that out? Any help?

CC is the manager of the best team in the NL recordwise. He knows what he's doing.

[adambr2]

What a horsecrap 1st pitch strike to Cain.

[jonescm128]

All these strikeouts....

[markedman5]

Sweet

[TURBO]

blech!

[PinaMadness]

Did Kratz actully steal a base?

[jjfanec]

Top of the order killing us tonight

[adambr2]

Thanks for blowing a great scoring opportunity by handing them a free out just so you can inevitably pull Miley in a couple hitters anyway, Craig. Hope it was worth it.

[82brewcrew82]

Pathetic. Can't use the excuse of the bottom of the order not getting on. That was on the top of the order.

[TJH123]

Sorry but that was stupid. All so Miley could pitch 1 more inning

[82brewcrew82]

Thanks for blowing a great scoring opportunity by handing them a free out just so you can inevitably pull Miley in a couple hitters anyway, Craig. Hope it was worth it.

With the top of the order coming up, there should have been a run there.
