2019-06-05: Marlins (Alcántara) at Brewers (Nelson) 6:40 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 8-3 -- The return of Jimmy Nelson spoiled by the Marlins]

[Bulldogboy]

This home plate umpire is horrible. That was not close. come on blue.

[wildcat83]

Was late getting home but had it DVR’d. Pretty good start for Jimmy all things considered. This ump has a gigantic strike zone, well, sometimes....

[MrTPlush]

Can't blame Eddie....great throw...just got him

 

Oh and Jimmy up next...lol

 

Arcia continues to,impress.....at the plate that is.....

 

Could have been out by 5 steps and it was a good send. Nelson was up next.

[yourout]

Can't blame Eddie....great throw...just got him

+1. Good send.

Really good seq by the Marlins.

Hit the cut.

Great relay.

Nice play by the catcher.

[yourout]

And we walk the pitcher to start the inning.

[markedman5]

So those are only strikes against brewers

[Bulldogboy]

This team walks the pitcher more than any I can remember.

[yourout]

Big at bat here by Cooper.

[MrTPlush]

Garrett Cooper would look real nice instead of Aguilar.

[yourout]

This has disaster written all over it.

[yourout]

That's it for me I'm out.

[markedman5]

Ouch

[MrTPlush]

That's it for me I'm out.

 

Bye!

[wildcat83]

Garrett Cooper would look real nice instead of Aguilar.

 

Yea he would. Wasn’t he traded for Webb, who made like a handful of appearances out of the pen?

[trwi7]

The Marlins are to the Brewers what the Suns are to the Bucks.

[kybrewerfan]

I think I might see why Nelson was kept at AAA for an extended time

[Eye Black]

I don’t want to come across as Mr. Negativity here, but tomorrow’s pitching matchup is extremely favorable for the Marlins (Caleb Smith versus Freddy Peralta). At the current moment it would be hard to bet against a series sweep for the Marlins at Miller Park.

[Bulldogboy]

I love how Anderson keeps saying how well the Marlins have swung the bats in this series. How about man the brewers pitching is terrible?? I think that's the key component in this equation. We all know that's the real deal.

[TURBO]

Jimmy has to get his feet wet sometime. I'm not saying crap about his performance tonight since he hasn't thrown a major league game since 2017.

 

The Brewers must have thought he was ready, whether he is or not, he's here...

[wildcat83]

I think I might see why Nelson was kept at AAA for an extended time

 

Fastball looks good, but no feel for his breaking stuff.

[wildcat83]

I don’t want to come across as Mr. Negativity here, but tomorrow’s pitching matchup is extremely favorable for the Marlins (Caleb Smith versus Freddy Peralta). At the current moment it would be hard to bet against a series sweep for the Marlins at Miller Park.

 

Brewers win tonight 9-7, and Freddy deals tomorrow. I feel good about it.

[markedman5]

Kimbrel to the Cubs per Rosenthal

[tomwopat]

Jimmy not looking that comfortable on the mound, almost like a pitcher in ST still trying to get all the parts of his delivery in sync.

[MoreTrife]

Sports are just nothing but misery. Nelson pitching like an ace in 2017 then catastrophic injury on freak play derails everything. Any time things start going well, expect heartbreak. Frustrating.

[TURBO]

Kimbrel to the Cubs per Rosenthal

 

great
