2019-04-09: Brewers (Peralta) at Angels (Harvey) [Brewers lose, 11-8 -- Bottom of the order sparks comeback to take lead in 5th inning, but bullpen falters late]

[trwi7]

Angels regretting not pouring it on.

[topper09er]

Green light for the lead

[Fear The Chorizo]

OMG Grandal

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I cannot believe this game isn't tied.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So Freddy Peralta gave up 6 runs in the opening inning. Also can't lose.

[brooks_quichenick]

POUR. IT. ON.

[owbc]

6-0 deficit with 24 outs to go is no big deal for this offense.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So ... those free agent signings have worked out ok so far ...

[Bombers]

I cannot believe this game isn't tied.

Plus 1 - Our offense is having some fun

[Bulldogboy]

I repeat Grandal is a beast. The guy is exactly what was advertised.

[HarveysWBs]

Good thing Stearns fixed the offense, because every other game feels like a shootout with dueling .50 cals. I guess this is the definition of living and dying by the sword.

[topper09er]

Hader is available for 5 tonight right?

[topper09er]

Lot of well timed lucky hits for the Angels tonight

[Bulldogboy]

Albers doesn't look much different than last years version.

[Eye Black]

Has everyone seen this Marcell Ozuna outfield play (Twitter Link) from tonight? I literally laugh out loud every time I watch it...

The last April and May version of Albers was great.

I stared at a GIF of this for about 5 minutes straight earlier. It's incredible

[topper09er]

booooo who hits an elderly man?

[Eye Black]

I’ll state the obvious, this would be a good time for Braun, Shaw and/or Aguilar to come through.

[dlk9s]

That's an interesting play. I can see why Ausmus is upset, but I also don't see how Cain could have reasonably done anything different.

[The stache]

At what point does CC move Shaw and Aguilar either way down in the bottom of the order, or take them out for a while? Braun's done nothing in this series, thus far, but he's had some really big hits. Shaw and Aguilar have done next to nothing. Aguilar is 4 for 34, 4 singles. Shaw is 1 for 19 the last five games. At what point are they out of the 4 and 5 slots???

I would give them a few more weeks at least. If it's May 9th then maybe. Aguilar looks really frustrated up there, gotta let him work through it.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Right now the 3-4-5 of this order are killing rallies - I think you gotta move Moose or perhaps Grandal up into that 4 spot for a while with how well they're swinging it.

I'd be ok with this, put Grandal in the 4 spot. Aguilar is struggling but looks like he will break out before Shaw, and Braun is low-and-away-slider happy right now.

[Fear The Chorizo]

is anyone else incredibly annoyed by that glove shaking thing Claudio does as he comes to his set?
