2020-08-29: Pirates (Brubaker) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers win, 7-6 -- Hader blown save; Sogard hits walk-off HR]

[DuWayne Steurer]

Sogard

 

Seriously. Sogard.

[RollieTime]

Wow... He got all of that one!

[Lostpawn]

Wow. What a game.

[Eye Black]

Hader gets the win, thus RAISING his trade value!

[jjfanec]

Peterson and sogard is not an ideal first two for a rally...

 

I might have been wrong

[adambr2]

Hahaha wow, just wow.

[markedman5]

Sogard is accepting all of our apologies for remainder if the evening......back to the hate tomorrow

[PinaMadness]

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

That is oficially a top 10 all-time weird inning, right?

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Yeah tonights blowup shouldn't lower his value but it probably will. The move will most likely have to occur in the offseason if at all.

 

It won't. GMs of contending teams aren't idiots.

 

They are idiots for the most part which is why I think we can get a monster package but Hader has walked a ton of guys this season and that can scare GMs off when the price is so hig to begin with.

 

This literally makes no sense.

[owbc]

Well that was fun, now I'm going to pretend this game never happened.

[wildcat83]

Oh god, they’ll probably sign him to an extension.

[brewers888]

I'm only trading him for elite prospects. Whether thats Lux or Gore or some other top guy that needs to be the return when Hader still has 3 years of control after this one.

 

And that's fine. But you can't really say that with the line "this is why you trade even the most elite reliever when their value is the highest." Either you're going to take the highest bid when his value is the highest (now) or you're going to hold out for elite prospects. We can't force anyone into giving us what we want for Hader.

 

Relief pitchers are the most volatile of all players. I would always cash in on them if the offers measure up. In the case of Hader with all the control time remaining that should mean a big return.

To be fair, I don't think any of us called that one.

[yourout]

Well that was unexpected.

[Bulldogboy]

Props to Sogard for tonight. Should he playing? No

[rickh150]

Better than Villar...

[brewcrewdue80]

Sogard will start the rest of the season. Cool.

 

Counsell will sit Sogard next game. His reward to HR hitters.(or is it punishment?)

[Devinep]

Is this real life?

[AKCheesehead]

I couldn’t watch or listen to the game but tonight’s IGT really delivered. Well done folks.

[yourout]

This needs to be a bunt.

 

Agreed

 

Somebody needs to go check the Earth's magnetic poles and see if they flipped in the nineth inning.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Props to Sogard for tonight. Should he playing? No

 

He'd be fine as a bench guy. He's had the knack for some late inning clutch hits this year. Gyorko should still be starting 5-6 days a week at 3B.

[PinaMadness]

Hader gets the win, thus RAISING his trade value!

Williams got the win.

[adambr2]

Better than Villar...

 

Your burning hatred for Villar is just kind of weird at this point. The man has been gone for 2 years.

You are correct sir.
