2019-09-10: Brewers (Anderson) at Marlins (Hernández) [Brewers win 4-3 -- Yelich suffers season ending knee cap fracture]

[Pugger]

I feel so bad for Yeli.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Now what do we do?

 

CG shutout our way to victory!

 

Bummed for Yelich especially. But you do atill have to play the games. And you are still right in it.

[Jopal78]

A fractured patella can be a pretty bad injury requiring immobilization until the bone heals. So Yelich is done for 2019 regardless

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Ryan Braun needs to turn back the clock and play hero ball the rest of the year.

[willie key]

Hiura and moose need to get back quick. Along with woodruff

[dlk9s]

Now what do we do?

 

Wait 'til next year?

[yourout]

Now what do we do?

 

Grisham will get a lot of innings.

[markedman5]

Now what do we do?

 

Try to win the wild card without the best hitter in the national league and Hiura..... I'd suggest keeping the expectations low. ....

[wallus]

Now what do we do?

 

Win the whole ***** thing!

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Nobody believes in us! Even we don't believe in us!

[Lostpawn]

Wow. That’s devastating. I hope the team reacts positively and doesn’t just hang it up. Obviously this puts a huge damper on their chances but they can still compete without him.

 

But wow. What a terrible way to end his season, and MVP hopes. Rehab time.

[Bulldogboy]

This wouldn't be the end if Shaw Moose and Hiura were healthy and hitting much less Cain. Unfortunately they are not so I think that's the season. Unless Tyrone Taylor is flying under the radar as mini Mike Trout.

[Brew crew 92]

Now what do we do?

 

Rise above it. Hiura will be back next week. Moose is almost back. Pina back on Thursday. Woodruff back for the last 10 game stretch. We are not done!

[adambr2]

Seriously, how many players in MLB history have suffered a broken kneecap on a foul ball? I can't think of one.

 

Well, I can think of one now.

[Pugger]

God, now we really need Moose and Huira.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Trent Grisham is now a fulltime player. No reason to platoon him. He'll step in in RF and take all of Yelich's innings. Ben Gamel takes on a bigger role as well as the main backup OF, and needs to be ready. It is possible that Tyrone Taylor sees a decent amount of time as well. Yelich obviously is not replaceable, but the rest of the lineup has to step up to fill that massive hole.

[Lostpawn]

 

No, we can't get over this week. Maybe next year.

 

Sorry. Thought you were implying that he was at the game. See you next year maybe!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

This wouldn't be the end if Shaw Moose and Hiura were healthy and hitting much less Cain. Unfortunately they are not so I think that's the season. Unless Tyrone Taylor is flying under the radar as mini Mike Trout.

 

I get what you're saying, but at the same time, it certainly wouldn't be the first time that a team rallied and played above their heads to make up for a superstar going down. You see it more often in football ... but it has happened in baseball too.

[Brew crew 92]

Cubs down 5-2.

[Lostpawn]

Crew still has a very favorable schedule coming in. This is awful but not the end. Go Crew!

[Pugger]

 

No, we can't get over this week. Maybe next year.

 

Sorry. Thought you were implying that he was at the game. See you next year maybe!

 

That would be fun. That looks like a nice ball park and tickets should be easy to get.

[BruisedCrew]

Hiura and moose need to get back quick. Along with woodruff

 

Woodruff is not coming back except maybe for a couple of one inning appearances.

[BruisedCrew]

Is this something that will affect Yelich for next season too?

[willie key]

Hiura and moose need to get back quick. Along with woodruff

 

Woodruff is not coming back except maybe for a couple of one inning appearances.

 

 

Who cares about pitching. Let him hit

[adambr2]

I dunno. We are probably done. It's just not our year. First Woodruff, then Hiura, Moose, and now Yelich? We're approaching an AAA lineup.

 

I mean crazy things happen, it is baseball, but you're talking Hollywood level miracles at this point. It's just not very realistic. You need just about everything to go right. Bullpen turns back the clock to 2018, Braun turns back the clock to 2012, Hiura returns and him and Grisham rake the rest of the season.

 

I mean, we'll all keep cheering, that's all we can do. It's just quite a gut punch to finally go on a nice run, already be hanging by a thread on injuries and now unbelievably have this happen on top of it. The baseball Gods can piss right off.
