2020-08-14: Brewers (Woodruff) at Cubs (Chatwood) [Brewers win, 4-3 -- Yelich 3-run HR proves the difference]

[PinaMadness]

It's just sad watching Hiura right now. He doesn't have a clue.

[pacopete4]

Gotta move Hiura down in the order and possibly go as far as time off. He’s too young to just let him strikeout a bunch of times every game and expect it not to eventually affect him.

[timpep]

I woulda let Freddy pitch another inning or two. He's been pretty amazing tonight.

 

They wanted Williamsvto face the lefties.....can’t blame CC for that with how dominant his change up is.

 

Yeah, it made sense. Less a second guessing of strategy and more disappointment that I didn't get to see more Freddy.

[Eye Black]

So is Devin Williams the multi-inning fireman now?

[Eye Black]

Gamel is normally a solid defensive outfielder, but that was a really brutal effort.

[PinaMadness]

That's Domingo Santana type defense there, Gamel. Even worse really.

[pacopete4]

Errors happen but come on. It’s like everything that can go wrong, will.

[Bulldogboy]

Gamel can't hit now he can't catch a fly ball??

[PinaMadness]

It's a travesty that was ruled a double. Gamel couldn't have played that any worse.

[yourout]

No way that was a double. That was just a straight-out drop.

[homer]

This bullpen would have been fun to watch over a full 162 games

[Bulldogboy]

Williams is very nasty.

[PinaMadness]

MLB really needs to think about changing the hit/error rules. Gamel shouldn't avoid an error because he didn't actually touch the ball.

This was worse because it hit his glove.

[yourout]

Got a .133 hitter at 0-2 and end up walking them

[Eye Black]

A little concerned about Hader missing so badly with his slider.

I didn't see that. It looked to me like a total whiff to me. Either way, my point still stands.

[Bulldogboy]

3-2 slider ugh.

[Eye Black]

The lack of work so far this season could be part of the problem.

[pacopete4]

This is what happens when you pitch Hader once a week. Either way, he’s gotta get the job done here.

[folly412]

The fastball hasn't been put in play yet. Why throw the slider that hasn't come within two feet of the plate on 3/2?

[TURBO]

When is the last time Hader pitched? How can we expect him to be sharp when he hardly ever sees the mound?

[Eye Black]

Well somehow they got out of that unscathed. Please score some runs in the top half.

[yourout]

Got to thank Ross for that one.

Can't believe they didn't have somebody else to try trot up there

[PinaMadness]

I'd be hesitant to have Hader pitch the ninth. He labored too much this inning.
