9/27 Padres (Cassel) @ Brewers (Gallardo) 7:05

Braun is horrible at defense.

 

This is why I don't think it's that horrible of a decision when Yost takes Braun out of the game, provided it's the 8th or 9th and they are leading. Sure, they miss his bat when his turn in the order comes up and the other team has tied the game, but he also is a candidate to help the other team tie the game everytime he touches the ball. 26 errors now in 3/4 of a season, and how many more would he have had if he wasn't taken out of all those games?

Braun is just a horrible defender. Burger King in now. Time to put this out of reach.

 

Burger King. Haw.

Defense doesn't matter that much. :^o

 

Offense scores you points, but defense costs you games.

[C.C.]

Is Braun really that bad at third? Does he even have the tools to improve over time?

 

I don't think so. He's way, way worse then Aram at Aram worse.

[Little Slide Rooter]

That soap is looking extra slippery tonight.

[ElectricJ]

I be loving this shyte.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Padres load em up because King is too fat to jump.

I find it nearly impossible to believe, but he used to be a SS. :shock:

bases juiced

[C.C.]

Bases juiced! Nobody out!

[chuckywang]

Ray King is fast becoming my favorite pitcher.

[salukifudd]

Seeing King jump is very entertaining.

How does a person single to SS?

[XZero771679666304]

Time to deliver the KO, Padres.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Deflected ball.

[C.C.]

Yep

He doesn't have many tools to use over there.

 

Actually he IS a tool, but that's another subject matter, I guess.

[C.C.]

Thank god we don't play the Marlins tomorrow!

The Pads have a good pen...right? they do right?

Best in baseball.

[moorecg]

A walk would be good...Brewers have used like 4 pitchers this inning right?

[CUBZ99]

Thank god we don't play the Marlins tomorrow!

 

QFT!

Lets get them 3 more runs.

You can say that again. Considering the lineup the Reds are going to put out, if we don't make the playoffs we deserve it. Then again, with all these loses for the Brewers and 4 errors tonight, I think they are gift-wrapping one for us too.
