Our non-Hader pen options suck.

I brought up that we need some better non Hader options yesterday but was shouted down. Of course this is obvious to anyone who has watched this team for even a week but whatever.

 

You said Hader was over worked. Two completely different things.

Nope. I said if we don't add two arms we can trust he is on the road to being overworked. Most of you don't take the time to read before firing back with nonsense. No bother. What I said is a fact and tonight adds to it.

The Brewers have been very firm in controlling Hader’s rest. There are days he’s flat out unavailable. I just don’t believe he’s ever going to be over worked.

 

Totally agree pen arms would help the team, just has no bearing on Hader’s usage.

Well I responded we have them but we

1 are starting Houser

2 cut Peralta short tonight for no reason.

 

CC is on the hook for a loss here.

True. It started with pulling Chase with 77 pitches. Braun makes a play for him and there is no trouble and he's gone. Now you have to cover at least 2+ innings just to get to Hader. Makes no sense at all.

I normally trust CC bullpen decisions, he’s proven correct more often than not, but there were some head scratchers tonight, most glaring letting Albers face Votto with a lefty warm in the pen.

It will if Brewers feel like he's all they have down the stretch. I am sure they are going to be careful but then again how many games will that cost us?? Hopefully Stearns makes it a mute point.

This game would've been over a half hour ago if CC had made this move two innings ago.

 

Yep, right decision, wrong inning. They'd be on their way back to the hotel if he makes that move in the 8th.
