Tough night when the number one guy you want up at in that situation hits into a DP.

he's the guy you want up in that situation?

 

Absolutely. When all you need is contact and not strike out.

LOL. Guys I would prefer in that situation:

 

Bryant

Rizzo

Schwarbs

Contreras

Russell

[Sammys Boombox]

I honestly think I'd rather be 2-2 with this bullpen performing as well as it has opposed to 4-0 because we donged the other teams into submission.

 

Normally I would say that's crazy talk, but there are so many guys with huge upside but big question marks in that bullpen. They've pretty much all looked great to this point.

Rather a k than shitty contact. You need power above all

[Ding Dong Johnson]

now throw over 18 times

[Careless]

well that sucked

[Sammys Boombox]

Well, that's pretty annoying as the only quality pitch sequences the last 2 innings by the Brewers has been to Bryant and Zobrist.

[Euthoniel]

That might have been Heyward's hardest hit ball of the year, but a double play.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

this game is so dumb, I won't even be mad when they lose. I just want it to end

To each their own I guess. Zobrist has arguably the best eye on the team and doesn't strike out in those situations too often. We needed contact to move the runners along, it just didn't work out.

i hope jesus aguilar is able to play another 10 years, just because it's fun to see guys who weigh over three bills run the bases.

Sorry that's dumb

[Aaron_Kennelly]

DP ball please

[Transmogrified Tiger]

hello my name is Jett Bandy, please let me play [looks at hand] human baseball

This feels like game 3 of the NLDS where Montgomery eventually loses, but I feel more sorry for him than anything that the offense was unable to take advantage of things and Maddon decided Montgomery would be the last pitcher to be in the game.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

He's gassed. Get someone else in.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

This seems like being a bit too clever. Maybe if there wasn't a force at the plate, sure.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

dammit

[David]

Garbage. Montgomery pitched like garbage

[UMFan83]

Offense get your horsefeathers together soon

[bukie]

Garbage. Montgomery pitched like garbage

Yeah, nn.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

man, if Montgomery had caught it he sealed Braun off the plate

[Andy]

Pretty much knew that was coming as soon as Contreras lined up for a dirtball. For all his strengths he's not much of a ball-stopper.

Not really. It's a 162 game season. The bullpen has been encouraging
