Davies looking sharp.

 

Last year wasn't all smoke and mirrors. The guy, when right, is a very good starting pitcher. It's been disappointing seeing the number of fans who are writing him off or just want him gone.

 

Why do opinions of other fans bother you so much? Everyone has different views and opinions. I notice people always complaining about other's views on players, managers, etc. Who cares what others think?

Not sure I like pulling Davies already and trying Gio out of the pen here..

 

Don't want to see Gio, out of the pen, in a high leverage situation for his first appearance in a Brewer's uniform.

Seems like a bad early hook to me, Davies was cruising. Now Gio to bridge the gap to our late innings guys. He’s NEVER pitched out of the pen in his career... let’s try it in a playoff chase...

 

Exactly.

The refusal to see the big picture is what is troubling. Like, fans are making their opinion based on a few early-season starts. Plus, it's a baseball message board. Differing opinions is kinda what makes the world go round.

The booing of Braun from the same fans that slobbered over Sammy Sosa for years is just hilarious

 

[sarcasm]I don’t remember Sosa throwing the collector under the bus. *ducks[/sarcasm]

 

Yea he only lied under oath and acted like he couldn't speak English, haha. Apologies if I'm mixing him up with someone else.

Lot's of hot takes on Santana here. It was one at bat where the pitcher made some good pitches. Probably can hold off on crucifying him. I think he will end up having some big hits for us this September.

and that is my point... Differing opinions is kinda what makes the world go round.

 

What you see as the big picture is not always the same as what others see as the big picture. It is kind of condescending to suggest that your big picture is more accurate than other's big picture.

 

By the way, I agree with you on Davies. If he pitches like he did last year, we just got better. I have no ill will against the guy.

 

I just find it odd that so many judge other's viewpoints as incorrect because they don't line up with their own.

I sure hope so. Tons of talent there. I think he just needs to get out of his own head. I've hated his approach all season.

Heck of a start from Davies. Only 5 innings but kept us in it.

 

Only went 5, but could have probably gone more... I'm fine with pulling him, but why not put him out there for the 6th until he allows a baserunner? Too early to pinch hit him imo when he was cruising along just fine.

The real question is, has Braun made enough starts in left field to collect his gold glove?
