2019-08-01: Brewers (Anderson) at Athletics (Bailey) 2:37 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-3 -- Trent Grisham’s MLB Debut; Bullpen blows lead by allowing 4 runs over final 2 innings]

[KeithStone53151]

Three straight days for Guerra.

 

Odds on keeping the ball in the park for a whole inning?

 

Not only would more runs make this game more comfortable, but it might have helped save the pen a little for the Cubs series.

 

Dude, when's the last time you said something without a whiny undertone? Are you sure you even like the Brewers?

[Eye Black]

Three straight days for Guerra.

Junior Guerra pitching for a third straight day in Oakland in a 2-run game does seem like a big risk.

[jason21nl]

Gulp

[Brewcrewin07]

Navigate this inning and turn it over to Pomeranz to finish it??

[adambr2]

STOP walking guys!!

[willie key]

Guerra has to walk someone every time. It’s painful

[wildcat83]

Didn’t we acquire a few pen arms? Guerra for a third straight day is really our best option here?

[folly412]

Navigate this inning

 

Yes please.

[PinaMadness]

CC is really flirting with disaster going to Guerra again.

[jason21nl]

This has a bad feel to it

[willie key]

Didn’t we acquire a few pen arms? Guerra for a third straight day is really our best option here?

 

Yeah. It’s kind of silly

[Brewcrewin07]

I mean, why not let Guerra pitch to the first batter then bring in Claudio to face the lefties??

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Shaw's biggest contribution of the year.

[adambr2]

Guerra hasn't been able to throw his splitter in forever, and he is just useless without it.

[KeithStone53151]

Yikes, that was at least 1 run if Shaw doesn't snag that. Gotta love having a plus 3b defender at 1b.

[pacopete4]

Travis Shaw, gold glove 1B. Please find your stroke.

[Fear The Chorizo]

can't hit right now but Shaw's been great at 1B...

 

Seems like the Brewers have missed out on about 4-5 extra runs all game, has the feeling like that's going to come back and bite them right now

[willie key]

This is pointless.

[HarveysWBs]

And exhale

[adambr2]

Well, kept the lead.

 

Some insurance would be good. It's definitely looking like a Freddy Peralta save opportunity night at the moment.

[Brewcrewin07]

Do NOT under any circumstances bring fastball Freddy into this game, if it stays at a 1 run lead.

[KeithStone53151]

Do NOT under any circumstances bring fastball Freddy into this game, if it stays at a 1 run lead.

 

Who would you prefer? Also consider Hader is probably not available...

[adambr2]

Do NOT under any circumstances bring fastball Freddy into this game, if it stays at a 1 run lead.

 

He's like our second best relief pitcher, and the best one isn't available, so....

[Eye Black]

They are all important, but winning this game (and series) post trade deadline feels extra important from a morale standpoint.

[pacopete4]

Guerra looks like he’s not enjoying baseball right now.
