Epic pitching matchup. We have struggled against just average lefty starters so going against Rodon is going to be a tall task. Wish I were going to the game!

[MadScientist]

Let's see if LaRussa can be thrown out of this game as well. It always improves the game.

[igor67]

I loved the nugget that he hadn't been tossed from a game in almost 10 years, and the last time was also against the Brewers.

[JET15]

My guess at the lineup

Wong 2B

Adames SS

Yelich LF

Garcia RF

Taylor CF

Urias 3B

Huira 1B

Pina C

 

But I'd rather see Tellez at 1B. Keston can go down when Cain comes back in PIT

[TURBO]

Omar Narváez will get a day off on Saturday against the White Sox.

 

Narváez has started six of the Brewers' last eight contests. Manny Pina will handle the catching duties in his absence on Saturday night.

I still think he is the ultimate cause of the white Sox not going all the way the next couple years. He’ll probably start throwing at the astros in a tie game in the 8th. Because of his “moral superiority” or other related hypocrisy in his head.

[OldHeidelberg]

I am sure it is buried in some thread here but why is Burnes jumped ahead of Woodruff in the rotation now? Thankfully I don't see an injury thread.

[DoubleSwitch]

Tellez indeed starting over Hiura who can't be long for the active roster I would guess

Taylor hit a salami last night. How can he even play after that??

[willie key]

Any news on Williams?

[BruisedCrew]

Any news on Williams?

 

They said he might be ready when he is eligible to come off the IL next week or shortly thereafter. Fingers crossed.

We need him

... like he played in 2020

That would be excellent, but his 2.97 ERA this year is nothing to scoff at.

I read somewhere that unlike all the others, Woodruff hadn't been jumped in the rotation at any point before, so just taking the opportunity for an extra days rest at a time where the off days means they can do it without taking away Burnes' extra rest day.

[folly412]

Boom

[JET15]

401 ft on the first pitch!

[igor67]

Tyrone!!!

[markedman5]

TT showing me something the last 2 days

[folly412]

Yeah, Taylor isn't going down when Cain is activated.

[PinaMadness]

How has JBJ been starting ahead of Taylor?

Yeah, and to add to this I really don't think there is any "order" or hierarchy to the Brewers rotation. If there is a #1 it is probably Woodruff just based on seniority but him and Burnes and Peralta are basically the big 3, but any order among them and the others is just their methods of workload control.

Was it when he threw at Braun TWICE? Threw behind him first and then hit him in the back. To make matters worse, he defended it after the game. Just stupid logic.
