2021-04-19: Brewers (Woodruff) at Padres (Musgrove) [Brewers win, 3-1 -- Woodruff gives up just 1 hit over 6 IP; Crew hits 3 solo home runs]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

The fact that JP is basically our new set up man says what exactly?

 

That they may have taken things a little TOO slowly with Devin Williams in Arizona. Williams is pitching like it's the beginning of March.

[Bulldogboy]

Burnes is developing that shadow where the other team is like we need this one cause we might get no hit tomorrow. It's very big.

[trwi7]

They win this game it's an outright theft.

 

Why? Woodruff gave up 3 hard hit balls all game and the Padres as of now have an expected batting average of .109. We've hit 3 balls hard and unlike the Padres didn't hit them into the ground, so we're more than deserving of our lead right now.

[Eye Black]

From Mike Vassallo...

 

For the fifth time already this season, a Brewers starter has gone at least 5.0 innings while allowing just 1 hit.

 

Burnes: 4/3 vs. Min (6.1ip, 1h)

Peralta: 4/6 at ChC (5ip, 1h)

Woodruff: 4/7 at ChC (7ip, 1h)

Burnes: 4/8 at StL (6ip, 1h)

Woodruff: 4/19 at SD (6ip, 1h)

 

That is pretty incredible considering this is just the 16th game of the year.

I am very ready for Jace Peterson to no longer be a relevant name in my lexicon. I fear he's going to be around for awhile, though.

 

Daniel Robertson says hi. Forget mendosa line. Hes teetering at Sheets line. Jace is safe while Robertson exists.

[yourout]

Flirting with disaster.

Both can go ... although at least Robertson has some theoretical upside.

[Eye Black]

That was a good throw (albeit off the mark) and great tag, wow.

 

EDIT: Throw looked much worse in slow motion, not a good throw but I’ll take the result.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow ... not a great throw, but it worked. Heck of a tag.

 

Actually, I take that back. That was one heck of a throw off a change-up. Narvaez has been a revelation this year.

[trwi7]

That was a good throw and great tag, wow.

 

Robertson to Baez.

 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Tag was Herculean, throw was quite behind but almost so bad it was good. Not the easiest pitch to throw from though.

FREE TYRONE TAYLOR

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Taylor needs to play more for this offense. He has earned it.

[Eye Black]

Can my man Tyrone Taylor get some more playing time, please.

[yourout]

Boom shaka laka

[tggibby55]

MORE TYRONE

[adambr2]

Taylor!

[Eye Black]

Well the Brewers should have a pretty good scouting report for Drew Pomeranz at least.

[trwi7]

110.8 off the bat, 440 feet and the second home run tonight with a 1.000 expected batting average.

[SeaBass]

Brewers power bats go BOOM!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow, HUGE insurance run there. Good for Tyrone!

[Eye Black]

Now that he just batted I think you have to consider leaving Taylor in the game bringing the pitcher into Garcia’s spot, right?

[Bulldogboy]

Taylor seems to do nothing but hit when given a shot. i'm still scratching my head on why Bradley is here. Injuries aside Brewers had cheaper options already in camp.

[Eye Black]

Not a great start for Suter.

 

As much as I appreciate him, I am worried about Suter versus the top half of this lineup.

 

EDIT: Well I guess we won’t need to find out (for tonight at least).

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I almost sort of think that after he struck out trying to coax Justin Turner to come to Milwaukee, Attanasio was determined to spend some money and make a splash, and Bradley was the biggest name left on the market.
