2019-05-03: Mets (Matz) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 3-1 -- Braun leads the way with 3 hits including 2-run HR]

[The stache]

Braun showing signs of life? 3 for his last 5. It would really help if he started producing some again.

For those that missed it, Adam McCalvy asked Craig Counsell this afternoon if the change in pitching coaches had an impact on the pitching struggles. Here is video of Counsell’s answer: Does the departure of Derek Johnson explain the Brewers’ pitching problems?

Translation: "Yes"

At least he was honest. We all know it so kudos to him for acknowledging it.

 

LOL. Did you watch the link? I assumed Pina may have lost something in translation, but for those who don't want to watch the link, CC did the typical exasperated evasion of the question, shaking his head and saying "I can't answer that, Chris Hook is doing a great job, we need to pitch better"

[MrTPlush]

That was...overturned....

 

*contemplates life*

[Eye Black]

I am surprised they overturned that out call. It didn’t look clear either way, seems like they should have stuck with the call on the field. I’ve pretty much given up trying to guess the outcome of replay reviews.

[The stache]

Bucks 4 for 16 from 3 pt range to start. Bledsoe 2 for 10 from the floor. #%^*!!!!!

The only way to quiet the Johnson talk is to pitch better, which I’m confident will happen moving forward.

[MrTPlush]

Nice of Woodruff to show promise as the other two young guys completely fell on their faces.

 

At least we have something going for us.

[yourout]

Chance to do some damage.

[yourout]

Matz pitches much like Miley.

[stoutdude04]

Another weak single against Woody.

[yourout]

Maybe Braun just needs a week off every so often

[folly412]

Old man Braun might have a little juice left after all.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

It took awhile, but Braun is heating up. Certainly nice to see Braun and Aguilar hitting the ball better with Yelich down.

[Oxy]

It's hard to watch the aging, decrepit shell of Ryan Braun disgrace himself with a pace of 33 homers as a part time player.

[pacopete4]

Bench him!

Woodruff is the oldest and most experienced of the three, so I guess it stands to reason that his growing pains haven't been as severe. It is great to see him pitching well, though.

[folly412]

Was that the Marquette Jump Around guy who played some good foul ball defense there?

 

Edit:

Google + MLB.TV's DVR confirms it!

Dumb play by Aguilar for so many reasons.

[Eye Black]

That throw attempt by Aguilar was truly awful.

[MrTPlush]

Just lost brain cells watching that Aguilar throw.

 

I mean come on man. Is this tee ball?

[stalton]

Brewers trying their best to get all the unconventional 1 2 3 innings.

[phnxcrew]

Woodruff with another good start throwing all three pitches for strikes. Braun has a good game for once... what's going on?

And Guerra with the curve and split, this year’s Jeffress. Now if jj can get going......

[yourout]

Since he got those dingers Arcia is standing the bat up at launch and is trying to lift everything.

Pulling off everything right now.

 

2 for his last 13.

[yfinn6]

Grandal calls more fastballs than any catcher I remember*. Can he not actually catch a breakaball?

 

*No actual research to back that up.
