I'm not rooting for an injury but if it were up to me I would release him. This team needs a big upgrade at DH and I doubt Hiura is the guy. 

If the Brewers had enough $$$ … I would release two or three players … Cutch & Cain for sure … I’d bench Yelich or bat him ninth

I certainly don’t want to see anyone injured either

I don't see why you don't just save Hader for the 10th; he'd be perfect for that role with his strikeout potential with the automatic runner on.

He was already warming up.  He was coming in for the 9th no matter what.

Pretty sure I have I accepted the same. I will not say that I wouldn't have signed him , I was so happy that we did. Now that contract will be a albatross around our neck , Yankees or Dodgers can afford that mistake , unfortunately we cannot !

I’m pretty sure all Brewers fans - even those who are always positive & are uncomfortable with honest criticism about any player - feel exactly the same way

Yelich is guaranteed his $$$ … whether healthy or injured - much like the Chris Davis contract with the Orioles in recent years

Ideally … for both player & fans … release him & let him try to figure things out on another team

I would much rather have a young rookie or someone like Dahl take his spot

Counsell will always use him in these tie games in the top of the 9th situations for some reason.

Once you get there there cannot be a save situation in the game. 
In this case he hasn’t pitched since Monday and there is an off day tomorrow.

If he is ever going to get a second inning, today would be the day. 

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

They just said Hill has to face two more hitters. 
 

I thought the 3 hitter rule didn’t apply if the pitcher finishes an inning.

ETA: I guess he could have been removed after the 8th, but if he comes back he has to face two hitters in that inning to make it a total  of 3.

Had our chance in the 8th. Though I don’t understand how Hader can pitch in two different games on Tuesday and not in the 10th today.

The game doesn't even get to the tenth without Hader.
