2021-04-26: Marlins (Rogers) at Brewers (Burnes) [Brewers lose, 8-0]


Eye Black
Cain and Yelich need to come back. Hopefully soon.

 

Yup, and put Taylor in RF for a few games.

 

The goal is to win games right?

 

Play what so far appears to be one of our best bats, and share the time left with JBJ and Garcia.

 

Cain and Yelich will need days off when they get back, that is obvious.

Realistically the Brewers are not going to be able to sustain this pitching all season. The offense is going to need to do something to help out. When your leading qualified hitter is hitting .216 that just isn’t going to cut it. You will hope they turn it around when Cain/Yelich get back, but that is putting a lot of pressure on those two.

Damn whoever it was that pointed out Sophia and her constant use of "he said."

 

Damn whoever brought it up again a few days ago, now it annoys the crap out of me. She says it so often it is almost comical.

 

Between that and Lepay's use of "pay off pitch," I don't know which is worse.

So what Jefferson was saying was 'Hey! You know, we left this England place because it was bogus. So if we don't get some cool rules ourselves, pronto, we'll just be bogus too.'

At least “ and that “ is now gone….’

Glad we haven't seen a lot of lefty starters if this is the lineup they have to put out there. This team needs some bats that work. I have no doubt the bad offense has an effect on the pitching needing to be near perfect.

Without Hiura doing anything it really leaves them in a bad spot not having any impact RH bats. I like their strategy of being able to load up against RHPs since the NL Central has so few LHPs, but it certainly leaves you susceptible on nights like tonight.

 

I know there aren’t many of them in general across baseball, but for as much as they like playing the matchups/platoon splits I’m surprised they don’t have any competent switch-hitters. They do have some at their lower levels now, however. This is the extreme example, but can you imagine what an impact switch-hitter like Jose Ramirez would do for this roster.

Not just “at Night” anymore.

Ray Black dead??

 

He was outrighted at the end of Spring Training. Passed through waivers, and still in the Brewers system. But no longer on the 40-man roster.

Surprised he's not back up if that's the case. Bickford seems cool and all but he is overmatched here. Theme of the night.

Agreed, But Bickford has options. Black didn't, which is why he isn't on the roster anymore. It wouldn't surprise me to see him back at some point, but they can't shuffle him back and forth anymore.
