2018-08-17: Brewers (Peralta) at Cardinals (Flaherty) 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-2]

[jason21nl]

screw it. I hope they score

[jonescm128]

I am fine with Hader not coming in here. Offense has barely shown anything tonight and its the bottom of the order coming up so chances they score a run are slim enough. Can maybe see him start warming up if we get a guy on base next inning.

[Bulldogboy]

Nobody up. Day off yesterday correct? Have to explain this to me. This is the game.

[jason21nl]

No activity. Get the hell out of here Counsell.

[adambr2]

I take back what I said about Counsell being fine. He's a complete egghead.

[Bulldogboy]

Not sure what you can say about this.

[BruisedCrew]

This is ridiculous.

 

Don’t want to give the team a chance to come back in the 9th.

[MrTPlush]

Lyles comes out for a second inning even when we score 2 to make it a one run game. A normal person would think someone should already be warming up to start. If not you would think even a whiff of struggle would make you get someone warming up.

 

Nope, not us, not the Brewers. Counsell is such an idiot with the bullpen it blows my mind. What on earth are we doing most days? I get not wanting to blow through your good guys every time you are losing...but good god.

 

How does Lyles get an inning to himself no matter what happens?!? This is the stretch run man!!! What a joke.

Nobody up. Day off yesterday correct? Have to explain this to me. This is the game.

 

It's baffling. Fine, let him go a 2nd inning but bases loaded and nobody even warming up yet? I don't get it either.

[Yaz]

Counsell is showing the SURRENDER flag.

[adambr2]

Nobody up. Day off yesterday correct? Have to explain this to me. This is the game.

 

Team building games of ultimate frisbee on Monday and Thursday this week has them exhausted.

[Bulldogboy]

Even if he gets out of it. Insanity move by counsell.

[PinaMadness]

This is the crap that Counsell does that pisses me off to no end

And yet his seat is ice cold.

[phnxcrew]

About to go into third place, down one run, keep the mop up guy in!

[Bulldogboy]

Even if he gets out of it. Insanity move by counsell.

Forget that.

[timpep]

I'd we score 2 in the ninth now that it's out of reach I don't know if I can handle it.

[IntentionalHBP]

I have tolerated counsell for a while now but now I give up.

[MrTPlush]

There is no point even watching this team anymore. What a joke, what awful managerial decisions daily.

[jason21nl]

Ha!!! Counsell should be axed. Absolutely no reason for this

[Yaz]

And there is the ballgame. Someone really needs to explain why?

[YelichPosse]

Counsell’d again.

[bucks2281]

Unreal. Pitching Lyles here is inexplicable.

 

I’m sure he’ll give a surly answer to the media when asked why.

[timpep]

Is there still nobody up? Guess it doesn't matter now.

[Bulldogboy]

Paralyzed in the dugout. Why worry though. Adam and Tom may not even ask about it.

[StearnBrewliever]

LaRussa is gone! The bullpen phone should work! I am done with Counsell. What a joke.
