2018-10-04 (NLDS Game #1): Rockies (Senzatela) at Brewers (Woodruff/Bullpen) 4:07 PM CDT [Brewers win, 3-2 in 10 Innings -- Blown Save in 9th; Moustakas Walk-Off Hit in 10th]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

This EXACTLY what I feared with Craig and his stupid bullpen day..it blew up on him, AND they have used all their best relievers, so who is available for tomorrow??

 

Burnes, Knebel, Hader and Jeffress all threw less than 30 pitches. All should still be available tomorrow. I doubt Hader goes, but the rest of them should be fine.

[TURBO]

I'm going back to that Santana PH in the 3rd. That was pretty asinine at the time, and even more asinine now.

[82brewcrew82]

Someone in the pen was bound to give up something. Blame the guys leaving a small village on the bases today and poor pinch hitting choices early.

The offense gets plenty of blame too, but Jeffress didn't do his job regardless.

[lcbj68c]

Brewers have a short bench. Better win this quick.

 

Yup. Didn't mind Woodruff not facing the order a 2nd time, but no need to hit Santana (or anybody other than Woodruff) in that spot.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Need the good Soria today.

Again, it wasn't the bullpen that failed to cash in on runs multiple times during the game. The bullpen threw 8 scoreless innings and probably more.

[Bulldogboy]

What are saving Granderson and his professional ab's for also?? Him or Keon is a no brainer regardless of what hand the guy throws with.

Yep. I can't believe a few were defending that. It made no sense then and looks even worse now.

 

If Keon Broxton is who you need to send up for your biggest scoring chance when you're carrying 14 position players, you screwed up.

[pacopete4]

I’m happy we didn’t leave Keon in for defensive purposes now.

[MoreTrife]

 

 

 

I don’t think that’s what he’s meant but I agree with him that it’s been a great baseball game. Hope we can pull it out in the end.

 

Yeah and of course I was reacting to top of ninth but he went for holier than thou routine.

[homer]

Gotta win it in the bottom of this inning.

Yep, that was a definite miss. Of course, if Domingo hits a bomb there, this one is likely over.

[YelichPosse]

Very large 1st out

Broxton was put in for defense.

[Jenkins5]

Soria gets us through 10th at least we got only 2 hitters that can do crap with a baseball today. Everyone just looks pathetic up there. Perez at the plate is just useless.

[IntentionalHBP]

I’m going to puke if this goes any longer than the 10th.

Yep. The bullpen day worked just fine, that has nothing to do with where we're at right now, in fact it's probably the reason we're still playing.

 

Everyone who pitched today is likely available tomorrow with the exception of Woodruff. This is the playoffs. They get days off on days when there's not a game.

He's not in the field.

THIS x 10!

He did help the Rockies defense big time

Broxton isn’t playing defense.... correct?

[MoreTrife]

Yeah the pitching issue is now a problem but having Perez and Shaw and Broxton be unable to put a ball in play against unknown pitchers is the killer. Not shocking though as it's happened all year. Doesn't appear as if it's been addressed in any meaningful way.

 

Needs to be addressed more next year. Brewers went down from 1500 some Ks to 1400 some Ks. Still bottom third of teams. Astros K around 1000 as a team. More contact.

[Boomer5]

I feel a lot more comfortable with Moose at third than Shaw. He is professional

There was and is no defense for this move leading off a 0-0 game in the third inning. It's like Craig figured Rockies suck so we won't need him.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

 

He's not in the field.

 

Yep, straight PH appearance.
