2025 MLB Season

That non-strike call was a terrible break for the Brewers.  That can't happen. 

[wadesworld]

Ashby going to have to throw 5 strikes to get a K.

[MuggsyB]

Ashby going to have to throw 5 strikes to get a K.

Absolutely can't happen.  Could completely change the game. 

[wadesworld]

Guess all Brewers pitchers will have to throw 5 strikes to get a K tonight.

[MuggsyB]

The thing is that one fom Ashby wasn't even close to being a ball.  Just a ridiculous, mickey-mouse, inexcusable, call from the ump.

[GB Warrior]

At least there's some logic to Counsel's decision. It was dumb, but you can talk yourself into, "Yeah it's 3 days rest, but the last outing was only 58 pitches and this gives us Boyd and Iminaga pitching 4 of 5 potential games." Murphy having Ashby as your "opener?" Zero logic whatsoever. You're set up perfectly to have Freddy and Priester start 4 of 5 potential games. Ashby can play the 2018 Hader role and come in in an early jam and get you out of it, and then give you 2 innings after. Now you use that bullet in a spot he's not used to and have a starter coming out of the pen. Like zero logic at all.

It'd make way more sense to do an "opener" for game 3. Quintana had been struggling lately, wasn't throwing strikes, and is coming off the IR. If you don't have confidence in that, okay maybe you go bullpen day.

It makes sense if you're going to have Ashby throw his best pitch against lefties.

He didn't till he was down 3. It'd also make sense if you were going to immediately flip the table to a righty. Which I guess Miz is said righty. Certainty a choice. 

[MuggsyB]

Pretty surprised with Misiorowski

[MuggsyB]

Ughhhh.

[MuggsyB]

That was a breaking ball?  Don't think so. 

[CreightonWarrior]

Miz-VP

[GB Warrior]

I'm re-contemplating my belief system after whatever the unnatural carnal knowledge that was

[MuggsyB]

Ha!  That was amusing. 

[MuggsyB]

Nice. 

[MuggsyB]

"There was a time for 10 years where that wasn't a base hit."  Darling is an absolute 🤡. 

[CreightonWarrior]

Let's go!

[MuggsyB]

Uhhh....that kid is special.  Wow. 

[wadesworld]

My God Chourio is good.

To follow up what he did against the Mets in the Playoffs last year with this so far this year is insane at 21 years old.

[Jockey]

If PCA HAD ABOUT 28' more on his vertical, he catches that easily.

[wadesworld]

Chourio has played in 4.5 playoff games (including a game he played 2 innings in as a full game) and is 1 HR shy of the Brewers postseason HR record.

[MuggsyB]

The Brewers don't hit home runs.
The Brewers don't hit home runs.
The Brewers don't hit home runs.

Meanwhile.....3 no doubt bombs, all with 2 outs, and 7 runs through 4 innings.

Lol. 

[CreightonWarrior]

Another rally Ron Darling has failed to will into existence.

Is this the newest talking point? Anything to play the victim I guess.

[MuggsyB]

It's not a talking point at all.  His commentary has been beyond partial and it's a complete embarrassment.  Either your ears aren't working or you have comprehension issues.

He's terrible. But he isn't biased.

This. I will say, I worried Megill's arm was going to fly clear off based on his commentary.
