2019-07-14: Giants (Beede) at Brewers (Chacín) [Brewers lose, 8-3]

[PinaMadness]

Saladino would've sailed that throw into the netting.

[adambr2]

I can't believe he almost scored from 1st on that.

 

I don't think that was much of an "almost". He was a dead duck. Bad send.

 

I don't know. I got no problem sending a guy with 2 outs like that. If the throw isn't on the money he scores.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Throw strikes! Stop nibbling and attack these guys!

[Eye Black]

On Grandal’s HBP to the foot he ran nearly to the dugout on his way to first base as he presumably tried to run off the pain. I wonder what’s the craziest route a player could take without the opposing team complaining they didn’t use the base path to get to first base.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

And we have hibernating bats

And we have hibernating bats

Good! I don’t want those things flying around the ballpark!

[PinaMadness]

Good. The service is now available so I can post that Claudio made his 208th apperance this season.

 

YELICH!!!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Yelly!

 

Now lets see a few other guys swing the bat.

[Brewcrewin07]

Not sure why CC pulled Chacin...he had at least one more inning in him. Wasn't like he was getting shelled. He does that way too often. With this bullpen, it's playing with fire..and he has been burns(ed) plenty.

Chacín has an ERA of 5.31. He has been a candle waiting to be lit most of this season. I am glad CC took him out!

Chacin gave up a HR in the previous inning. They were down 2-1, and he was trying to create offense. If the bats weren't hibernating, Chacin would have stayed in. There was nothing wrong with that move.

[phnxcrew]

When was the last time we knocked around a crappy starter? I honestly don't remember

[Brewcrewin07]

Freaking Cubs just scored 4 to take the lead 5-3...*sigh*

[Bulldogboy]

Are you kidding me with Burnes again in a tie game?? Fireable offense at this point. Ridiculous.

Who else are you going to go with? Everyone is getting slapped around lately.

[phnxcrew]

can't we give anyone in A+ or AA a chance? for the love of god

[Bulldogboy]

Fire Counsell. Enough already. You are not trying to win. Unacceptable.

[Brewcrewin07]

Like no one saw that coming with Burnes in the game...well obviously CC didn't. Just purely idiotic to put him in in this situation. He needs to be gone(CC and Burnes).

[MDCrew]

This pen is just awful. Burnes is terrible!!

[Eye Black]

Two of the three hits against Burnes on 0-2 pitches.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Corbin Burnes is pretty much useless right now. No confidence in his stuff. He's not attacking, and opposing hitters are just waiting on him to miss and put one middle middle.

[treego14]

Throwing strikes down the middle on 0-2 is never a good idea. Lack of command from these youngsters is a killer.

[Bulldogboy]

You cannot pitch Burnes. Period. You are killing the team. You are killing his career. He can't get anyone out.

[jjfanec]

0-2 counts to two of the first three batters and it ends up in a double and single. Burnes strikes out a lot of people but in his last two outings he has been terrible with 2 strikea

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I get that pitching Burnes here is a bad call, but can we cool it on the fire Counsell crap? I mean my goodness, the hyperbole is crazy.
