Dumb call, in my opinion. If you are trying to monitor his pitchcount why let him go 115? Another 10 pitches for a huge fan milestone is not a big difference.

 

 

I mean, a bigger fan milestone is making and winning a WS, which we're much less likely to do without Burnes, or with him ineffective.

We are about 1,000 times closer to Burnes pitching a no-hitter in this game than we are from Burnes throwing 125 pitches rather than 115 pitches costing us the World Series.

Yeah, I mean he already has gone 115. I really don't know what difference there is going to be between 115 or 130 to just see what happens. You're going to give him a couple extra days off most likely anyway.

 

Maybe Hader's agent called and reminded Craig that it's a save situation.

Wow. It's been fun Brewerfan, but I might be done following baseball at this point. Not the game I enjoyed as a youth.

No. Disappointed. Been trending that way for about 5 years.

 

You're upset during the season where they're a franchise high games over .500 with the horses to win the WS.

 

Well okay then; nice to know I can ignore you and your laughable takes.

It’s not an either/or. These discussions on pitching always come down to “rest him or ruin him.” There’s a lot of grey area.

Eh. Again, he looked strong in the 8th. I really doubt he's suddenly going to be lost with 10 more pitches. It doesn't hurt anything to have Hader loose and go to him the moment he gives up a baserunner.

This is disgusting. Nolan Ryan would throw 200+ pitches every start.

 

 

Nolan Ryan is a once in a generation pitcher.

And we're not allowed to find out if Corbin Burnes could be too.

How ridiculous, no one cares about a combined no hitter....except maybe in little league. Let him finish it for cripes sakes Craig.

 

Disagree completely. A no-hitter is a no-hitter. And the Brewers haven't had one, combined or not, since 1987.

 

Ah, I dunno. It still matters yes. It's definitely not as special as an individual one.

Doesn’t make sense to not

Send him out for the 9th. We’ve been incredibly

Careful with all these guys. Let him have a moment and let

The team enjoy it as well.
