2021-05-02: Dodgers (Urías) at Brewers (Bettinger) [Brewers lose, 16-4 -- Nottingham hits a pair of home runs]

Hilarious that Nottingham is one of our top home run guys in one game after we got rid of him a week ago.

I think most everyone advocating for sending Hiura down is doing so with the understanding that it would be a temporary gig, until he finds his swing and his plate discipline. Maybe it would only take a few weeks, maybe the rest of the year? Who knows. I think what frustrates fans the most about him is that he has shown that he can be so much better than this.

 

It used to be my understanding, now it's my hope. He looks so, so bad, that I'm more concerned we have the next great flame-out on our hands.

I wasn't able to watch today (thank God) but yeah I thought the same thing. It was funny for so many reasons.

As much of a laugher as this one was from the start imagine being the Cubs and Reds who have each given up 12 runs (and counting) with some off their best pitchers on the mound today.

 

That is good. I'm patiently waiting for the Cardinals to cool down. That would make me happy.

 

Unfortunately I don't think that's going to happen. The Cardinals are good. I expected them to be good.

 

Not that we're going away either. I think these will be the two teams at the top of the Central at the end.

 

The Cubs however I could see as sellers.

The question is, what happens to Nottingham in a couple of weeks when both Narvaez and Pina are back?

 

The Sherrif is playing for his next team right now if you ask me. He will have a very big opportunity to audition for any other team with catcher issues.

 

I hope he puts on a show, because I just don't think we will be able to keep him once our normal catchers get back. Hopefully he hits a bunch of homers!

 

Sad really.

Some have suggested he be the RHH in a new 1st base platoon and I could get behind that. McKinney and the Sheriff, send Hiura down.
