2019-08-27: Cardinals (Mikolas) at Brewers (Houser) [Brewers lose, 6-3]

[adambr2]

I know Arcia is hardly Ted Williams, but dumb of the Cardinals not to walk him with 2 out.

[PinaMadness]

Someone want to fill me in on why Roxanne is "trending"?

Thanks, but now knowing the story I just don't see why this is such a big deal.

I would guess that ted Williams and Orlando Arica might be the most opposite players in any sport ever

 

 

But opposites attract

It's not. Some lady got grumpy over nothing, so hes playing the song. Fun. That's all.

It's not.

I'm just saying people are acting like Yelich's response and having Roxanne playing for his walk up music is the greatest thing to ever happen to mankind. I don't really care either way about Yelich's photo shoot, but the lady had a valid opinion and shouldn't be belittled for it. It's not like she said anything bigoted.

[willie key]

Our pitchers just walk so many guys. Is it

 

1. Pitching coach and philosophy believes in trying to get outs pitching out of the zone

2. Pitchers are scared of the juiced ball this year and don’t want to challenge anybody

3. They are just bad

Well you can’t hsve it both ways. If you want to throw yourself out there and be a critic. You better be able to take it too

[PinaMadness]

So what did we learn from DS's interview that half inning?

Yes.

 

I don't mind BBs to power guys when there are 2 outs. I hate lead off BBs. It all depends on the situation/score.

[Brew crew 92]

So what did we learn from DS's interview that half inning?

 

Lots of evaluations throughout the year. And then after the year is done.

[sarcasm]That he doesn't have the balls to option Hiura, Grisham, and Houser to try to win the AAA and Southern League championships.[/sarcasm]

[markedman5]

Houser struggling with command but still has put up 4 zeros .......love how he keeps getting them to beat it into the ground.

 

He has really stepped up........no reason he can't be a rotation piece going forward.

[PinaMadness]

Brilliant strategy by Mikolas to balk Thames into scoring position.

[adambr2]

Hopefully Moose is good to go soon. Spangenberg being any kind of a regular would be very bad.

[Brew crew 92]

Hernandez has to be the worst umpire that’s ever lived, including little league. How can there be no accountability with this guy? Ever.

[folly412]

Molina needs to retire already

[markedman5]

Molina only homers against the Brewers......

[PinaMadness]

Could Grisham have played that any worse?

[chickinbrickin]

Molina only homers against the Brewers......

 

No kidding, he had 3 HR coming into this series. Brew crew loves giving up the long ball.

[Bulldogboy]

Molina is decent.

[adambr2]

That was about as terrible of a baserunning sequence for Carpenter as you'll ever see.

[adambr2]

Molina only homers against the Brewers......

 

Yeah, the thing is that age has finally caught up to Molina and he's pretty terrible now offensively, but you'd never know any difference against us.

[Brew crew 92]

Having a Travis Shaw kind of year.

[markedman5]

Offense back in the deep freeze again........
