I'll be at the game. Our vet gave us his season tickets. They are the badass premium tickets with club access and complimentary food and drink. $170 face value each. I will be getting fat tonight.

[Eye Black]

The Brewers are going with an all right handed swinging lineup tonight aside from Yelich. Fried is a southpaw, but doesn't have exaggerated lefty/righty splits. Over his 32 career games Fried has allowed a .732 OPS to right handed hitters and a .706 OPS to left handed hitters.

I find it weird to be so exaggerated. I actually wouldn't be surprised if Moose was a bit dinged up and they wanted to give him a day. If he is, the rest of the moves make sense. Also the next 3 starters we see after this are RHP, so probably not the worst idea to get Perez a start.

[adambr2]

It's the same lineup we'd see any other day with our current roster against a LHP other than maybe Perez for Moose. Perez continues to hit LHP well and has about a .800 OPS against LHP as a Brewer. Nothing to really see here IMO.

[Brew crew 92]

Max Fried has nasty stuff, even with 8 righty’s facing him, he’s not gonna be easy to hit. But we’ll see what happens

[Brew crew 92]

It’s early, but not Chacín’s best game. Too much plate.

[PinaMadness]

And Fried looks dialed in. Doesn't look too promising. Think I'll be on the Bucks thread alot tonight.

[adambr2]

Not going well, but score wise, could be much worse right now.

[stalton]

Chacin playing with fire but it's still way early. It could easily be 6 or 7 runs instead of 2

[TURBO]

Keston, Keston, Keston…

 

*shaking head*

 

Coach Cooper would have you running laps for that rookie mistake.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Can't help but laugh. Not sure why you think you get two there.

[adambr2]

That was just an awful baserunning decision by Hiura.

[TJseven7]

Keston.... come on man.

 

Should be 1st and 3rd.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

He barely had first. Lol.

[timpep]

Did the Brewers not have a first base coach when Hiura was at bat?

 

Wasn't anywhere close on the replay from what I saw.

[PinaMadness]

It's amazing how our pitchers can't sac bunt to save their lives and then see Fried lay down a perfect one on the first pitch.

[TJseven7]

Yeah, didn't look to say anything or motion to go as the ball rolled past him. He saw exactly where the ball was and stood there saying and doing nothing.

 

Why can't we get competent coaches at the easiest damn job on the diamond.

 

Should be loaded for Yelich with 1 out...

 

Clearly blew a chance to score that inning.

[adambr2]

Losing interest in this one quickly.

[kybrewerfan]

Losing interest in this one quickly.

 

 

I second that. I think I will take my tail to the deck, listen to music and smoke a Montecristo No 4

That looked like Hiura’s decision. He saw where the ball was headed and decided to go on his own

[Brew crew 92]

Braves 4 two strike hits. Move runners over, manufacture runs, play good defense, good manager, tough team to beat.

[PinaMadness]

Looks like Chacin's 2018 season is his outlier. He's now back to being who I thought he was when we signed him. A career mediocre #3 or 4.

[phnxcrew]

It seems like no matter who is on the Braves they hit us hard...Just one of those teams like the Cardinals where it doesn't matter who's on the field
