Burnes and Woodruff both have had trouble with gopher balls. 
 

Can’t afford too many of them against good teams and/or  good pitchers. 
 

The runs aren’t as easy to come by as they are against back end starters and in bullpen games. 

The good thing is that they've all been solo ones with the exception of Hoerner's opening day two run shot against Burnes. They also have not been guys who have been homer prone in their careers, especially Burnes (post-2019). So, not too worried...

If hitting is contagious I'd like to know what vaccine Renfroe took.

[Brewcrew82]

What is wrong with Wong's defense? Guy's been a butcher lately....

[BruisedCrew]

Taylor must have felt guilty about Castillo not getting the call on what looked like strike 3 so he decided to swing on ball 4 a foot inside. 

[BruisedCrew]

I don’t think they’re going to get 85-90 pitches out of Castillo. He looks to be laboring now.

The zone has been getting smaller the last couple of innings.

[HarryDoyle]

Looked safe to me.

[Brewcrew82]

Why do I have the feeling Castillo is going to end up in Dodgers uniform and gonna end up spinning a gem against us in the postseason...

[yourout]

Something changed with replay in the offseason.

They actually usually get it right this year.

 

[BruisedCrew]

Now that’s an example of hitting in bad luck. 

[Brewcrew82]

Yelich unlucky once again...

[BruisedCrew]

And Woodruff immediately in hot water again.

And he now walks the #9 hitter.

[BruisedCrew]

Woodruff wants to set the table for Moran. 

[BruisedCrew]

Put a fork in Woodruff. Another bad start.

[82brewcrew82]

Just can't throw strikes tonight.

His arm path looks different to me from other years.

Hard hit liner? My phone said out to right field.

[jason21nl]

Good grief.   What a garbage outing 

[BruisedCrew]

Could see that coming a mile away. 

[yourout]

Woo's fastball is mighty straight.

[Brewcrew82]

Woodruff just not throwing enough strikes right now.

[yourout]

Get out the hook.

It was a scorcher right to the right fielder who didn’t have to move.

Man, Woodruff is no bueno this season.
