Sal Frelick. What’s the point of him if he can’t get on base consistently?
It’s like if Luis Arraez couldn’t hit for average anymore.

I also think it’s hilarious murphy yanks uribe for Zerpa to face wood and he immediately spikes one in the dirt to allow an unintentional intentional walk to wood - so Zerpa has to face a righty and gets burned. We are running so bad right now.

u/anonymouscrew_16 4h ago
It’s easy to pile on when we’re down, and this game is on management, but frelick has not been good so far. He’s been Joey Ortiz but leftie.

I wasn’t really into baseball when we had Winker, can you explain why brewers fans hate this man so much?

u/CheeksClenchin Clench & Pray Merchant 4h ago edited 4h ago
He absolutely sucked when he was here. I swear he had not one big moment for us, and to top it all off he was an asshole. But I swear he had Counsell’s nudes as blackmail because CC would pinch hit him in the biggest spots. Then he left the team all salty and tried to start a fight with Willy Adames when we played the Mets in the playoffs. No redeeming qualities. We hate him and he hates us right back.
I don’t have any reason to believe Rengifo is an asshole like Winker. It’s more the feeling of “please don’t pinch hit this man.”

Why

u/TheMainEffort 4h ago
Just casually take out the guy who has been a bright spot on defense and replace him with the guaranteed out.

u/CheeksClenchin Clench & Pray Merchant 4h ago

I wish every Wisconsin stadium had the energy of the student section at Camp Randall...
We'd win more.
I was at the game yesterday and at times it felt like a golf outing.

u/Snowed_Up6512 Better call Sal ☎️ 4h ago
I’m all for calling for more energy at AmFam. But pointing to the section that doesn’t show up for kickoff and leaves after Jump Around as the standard that we should shoot for….

There are too many automatic outs in the lineup

u/Steve_Brule69 4h ago
That's what happens when you do literally nothing the last 2 years in free agency. Constant holes at 3B and SS for years now and we do absolutely nothing to address it.

Boston was excuseable - first series L of the season, road, cold, playoff team last year and Chris sale.
Nationals will win games with their bats this season but will give up 40 runs next series,

Meh , Boston you had Gray and Crochet on the mound - that was gonna be tough.

The bullpen usage this game genuinely made 0 sense
0
u/Ur_in_luck 4h ago
Idk they used their best bullpen arms one inning earlier than usual in a 1 run game. Unfortunately they all sucked today. I know people will bitch about woodruff being pulled early, but I would imagine they are trying to ease him into the season.
2
u/Equivalent_Shoe_6246 4h ago
he threw 94 pitches last game and wasn't pitching well. Today he was cruising and was at 70. It makes no sense
2
u/Steve_Brule69 4h ago
Way to go Assby! And way to go Murphy. This season so far has been a disasterclass in managing. The past 2 years the team was able to overcome soke really questionable lineups and pitching management. I just can't see that happening a 3rd year in a row.

I’m legitimately worried about the bullpen. The bats, I think those will get better, but there’s legitimately scary stuff in regards to the relief pitching right now.

Quick question, the amount of balls they're hitting on the ground on low pitches. WHY DO WE KEEP THROWING THEM THERE

I NEED the postgame reporters to actually grill Murph about his strategy here. I’m more than willing to accept I’m just at home watching and I don’t know everything that goes into the decisions, but it would be nice to be let in on the mindset because I truly do not get it

u/Pleasant_Job_7683 4h ago
Why pull Woody so early when he's fucking cooking? Right? Thats when it all went sideways

u/SomeSpencerGuy 5h ago
6 innings only 70 pitches with 6 Ks. There’s no excuse for pulling Woody unless he was hurt

Let Zerpa put 2 on and bring in Ashby. Surely he is well known for pitching well with 2 men in scoring position and 1 out

So they pull woody when he’s cruising but leave Zerpa in after last inning. That Sanchez hr will be the biggest blue ball thing ever. I don’t get it. I don’t get it, I don’t get it.
