2021-08-30: Brewers (Burnes) at Giants (Alvarez) [Brewers win, 3-1 -- Both Burnes and the bullpen fantastic once again]

[willie key]

If taylor is out for the year. It’s time for Cain to step up. Especially against lefties

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

3rd inning, 3rd pitcher for the Giants. I think for the overall series, that's not a bad thing.

 

Yeah, a bullpen game in game one of a four-gamer can only pay dividends over the course of the series....

 

Long as you can avoid the dreaded CG.

What’d I miss?

I was wondering the same thing. I’ve been out of the loop today, hopefully no setbacks for Taylor reported?

[DuWayne Steurer]

of course we're playing on the west coast, so each inning is going to take 25 minutes to complete.

[markedman5]

Wade is one tough out……2 rockets off of Burnes but no luck……..

Marcos Diplan throwing the well out of the pen for the Orioles. He was a part of the Yovani Gallardo trade and is only 24.

On base Jace

[dlk9s]

I'm entertained by the Giants fans getting pissy about every borderline ball/strike call. Overall, the ump has seemed pretty good and if he's missed any, they've been really close where I'm not going to get upset by them.

Have to tip the cap to Garcia on that sequence. JBJ laid off of a first pitch ball, then was thrown three HOF pitches.

[pacopete4]

JBJ- all you have to do is put together a 2 month stretch of competent at bats and people won’t give a damn that you’ve absolutely stunk this year.

[pacopete4]

Dumb Jace.

[markedman5]

No reason to run there Jace……come on

I think everything JBJ sees looks like a HOF pitch to him.

[PeaveyFury]

I just don't understand what Jace is thinking there.

[dlk9s]

Maybe the coach told Jace to steal? Or do they just give everyone the green light?

[homer]

Dodgers fan goes to a Giants game and makes out with his girlfriend.

Yeah, that whole sequence was gross. The pinky promise got me chuckling though.

[markedman5]

So BA has now speculated twice that Cueto could go tomorrow yet I’ve seen a number of reports that said both Wood abd Cueto went on the IL?

Cueto is on the COVID list but not with COVID....it's weird. He tested negative twice

 

Sounds like he just came back to the US so they might be taking some extra precautions.

Thats nice to see. He was a guy I dreamed on from that trade. Sorta the thing with international signings 8years to make your Big League debut, just too long to hold on to.

Seen on twitter Hedbert Perez promoted to Carolina. Good sign for us.

Talking about old Brewers, Mauricio Dubon is still in MLB with Giants (AAA right now). And more than that he is only 27.

[brewcrewdue80]

Garcia previous high IP was 2.1 is about to complete his 4th with 0s. Great start for a bullpen game.

 

Ope they pulled him just as I was writing that and checking his season. Still a great job by a LHP.

[brewcrewdue80]

Sigh another lineout that goes for an out. 0 for 4 on a 2.3/4 expected hits.

[Eye Black]

I think at this point it’s probably safe to assume everyone is well aware of the Wilmer Flores trade/non-trade.
