2020-09-01: Tigers (Fulmer) at Brewers (Lindblom) [Brewers lose, 12-1]

[PeaveyFury]

As if the hitting wasn't bad enough.

 

 

Worth noting they're tied with Derek Johnson's Reds with that distinction....

[brewmann04]

I not sold about Josh as a future starter in this rotation.

[MrTPlush]

You know what helps a bad offense? Making outs on the bases.

[Bulldogboy]

A brief reminder that Mr. Fulmer started today with an era over 8.00.

[wildcat83]

Supak can’t be worse. Not sure how the service time would factor in right now.

[mtsportsfan]

Just unbelievable how lost Yelich can look at the plate. Fulmer thanking his lucky stars that the brewers came up in his slot in the rotation.

[Warning Track Power]

Can we please end the Smoak experience? DFA please

[TURBO]

I prefer Levering to Lepay ... but I miss BA anytime he is off calling NBA games

 

 

He is a step above Lepay, but a very small step...As long as he doesn't start saying "payoff pitch" I can live with him...

[Warning Track Power]

Serious question...Has one Stearns move panned out from last off-season?

[Bulldogboy]

Smoak making last year of Travis Shaw look like Rod Carew. I heard Thames was available at the deadline. Would have loved to get him back. He hasn't been great but maybe a burst of energy in the clubhouse to see him back.

[MrTPlush]

Well Phelps...

[TURBO]

Serious question...Has one Stearns move panned out from last off-season?

 

Not really, no.

 

Moose and Grandal are sucking butt too, so keeping either of those guys at their salaries probably would have gotten Stearns in trouble with the fan base too. (I admit, I wanted to keep one of them...)

[MrTPlush]

Good job Brewers, can’t even do the basics and back up a base.

[Warning Track Power]

This team is pretty awful. Lindblom is like watching a worse version of Doug Davis.

[TURBO]

This game feels un-winable right now...

 

Not a fun team to watch, in fact, this is my least favorite team in recent memory. A boring, futile, unlikeable bunch of trash heap garbage.

[PeaveyFury]

Serious question...Has one Stearns move panned out from last off-season?

 

Gyorko's been pretty good...

[Bulldogboy]

Serious question...Has one Stearns move panned out from last off-season?

Sogard Holt Smoak Lindbloom Garcia Gyorko Narverez Lauer Yelich extension so nope.

Trading a lottery ticket for Mathias, claiming Yardley, signing Phelps, Gyorko, Anderson has been fine.

 

But he'd have to take the L on Lindblom, Narvaez, Smoak, Garcia, Sogard, Morrison, Holt, Healy, Peterson, and the early results of the San Diego trade.

[Bulldogboy]

The lesson of this off season is hoping that 30 something cats who haven't really been that good are suddenly going to become good is not good.

[Warning Track Power]

Amen. And I think most of us knew this going into the season.

I would agree with this except Mathias never plays so his impact has been tempered.

[Warning Track Power]

I think my least favorite has been trading a competitive balance pick for Alex Claudio.

 

Is Lindblom a 3 year guaranteed deal?

[PinaMadness]

I've seen enough.

 

And yes, this team is boring and unwatchable most of the time.

[Bulldogboy]

I for one agree with Counsell that you cannot burn out your bullpen here in May. You gotta ride with Lindbloom here. We have all summer.

[markedman5]

Lefties again just destroying him
