I wonder what it says about Winker's brewers tenure if Willy is giving him a piece of his mind.

The start of this Brewers playoff movie feels too familiar.

Jockey

Repeat of last year. Brewers get the lead and their ace is totally ineffective.

Burnes, Peralta - more of the same.


Beat me to it, Cheebs.

I'm not sure I'll blame Peralta here for 1 bad inning.  Don't get me wrong, he needs to shut them down after a 2-0 lead but he was better in innings 3 & 4 and Murphy yanking him was a surprise to me.

Just a masterclass in bullpen mismanagement, imo.  Payamps play at 1B is another defensive play to haunt them.
Ramsey head thoroughly up his ass.

Yet another playoff games where their supposed strengths turn out not to be.

The Braves have never really been afraid to throw young inexperienced arms in October. Been doing it for years(speaking a few of those guys are absolute ghosts now).

But still, pretty bold tossing a 21 year old guy with a 4 inning MLB start back in May and like 20 innings last year. Against this smoking hot Padres lineup

It feels like this is a result of Sale's back spasm and a doubleheader yesterday.   Clearly not ideal.

Well I just looked, one of those ghosts I mentioned was Ian Anderson

Probably shoulda went with him. Guy has been a corpse for the last two seasons(in both results and TJ surgery) but is currently healthy and has a 1 era in 35 career PS innings on 8 starts.

Absolutely no clue why they went with no experience and an era near 5 in AAA guy.

Brew Crew are first team in history to bow multi run lead and lose 4 straight games.

Losing steak up to 6 and 10 of last 11.

Yeah, I don't know what I think about it and don't want to monday morning quarterback, but Peralta was fine.  He obviously got punched in the nose in the second, but in the 3rd and 4th he didn't he allow a baserunner, had two strikeouts and three groundouts, and only threw 19 pitches.

Murphy screwed the pooch. Again.

Freddy was fine. Set down nine in a row after the triple. 68 pitches. If this guy is your ace, let him cook.

Burning Civale was another really shortsighted move that could bite them if they manage to win tomorrow.

The playoff rotation was set as Peralta, Montas, and Meyers, so not sure Civale was an option to start game 3 (which seems odd considering how well he has pitched at home this season).

Was at the game and we were totally stunned that Peralta was pulled after 68 pitches...thought maybe there was an injury or some other circumstance, but it seems it was just Murphy over-managing again.

Sounds like a terrible decision that cost them the game.

It was part of a string of events.  Chourio misplayed a ball (peddle his azz), Payamps failed to cover 1st base and the floodgates opened

Fair, and you touched on the point I was gonna make about Civale stating a game with how well he has done at home.

That said, if you knew Civale was gonna come out of the pen, wouldn't it have made more sense to try to get the 5/6/7th inning out of him to setup Megill and Williams? Burning him in an 8-4 game makes little sense to me. That's what Joe Ross is for.

TAMU, Knower of Ball


Pulling Petalta made no sense to me, but if Chourio doesnt flub a routine flyball or Payamps doesnt stand on the mound for 2 seconds before remembering to cover first, they get out of that inning with a 4-3 lead. If the rest of the game stays the same, they win

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Fair enough but I don't get pulling the starter based on what has been shared here.

So, what you are saying is that small mistakes have bigger impacts in the playoffs.   Due to short series, or some such nonsense.

It is coaching choices like this (Jackson Jobe),  bouncing a throw from first to home for the force, holding the ball for an extra nanosecond, that flip games and changes series momentum.  Alas. 

See the above post.

if it fails, you are a goat.

Jobe pitched fine. Bloop single. Bunt mishandled by 3rd basemen. Bad throw home. Defense let the team down more than pitching.

HBP first hitter.  Jobe wasn't terrible, agreed.

And sometimes, the opponent gives it back.
