Yeah, but that’s where the speed and the GG come into play.
April 9, 2023 at 2:14 pm #216053My thinking is yes and it would sill be a scoreless game.
They’re idiots if they think this is not going to happen regularly with Burleson or Yepez in the field. I was hoping Burleson would commit to fitness during the off season. There might be some athleticism hidden underneath his abundant adipose layer.
April 9, 2023 at 2:18 pm #216054Yeah, it looked like he panicked a little and got spun around. Maybe an OF’er who’s confident he can accelerate to the spot simply turns and burns, so to speak.
April 9, 2023 at 2:29 pm #216055Turns and burns, just like a fighter pilot. I like that, so let me use it in a sentence. Carlson woulda turned and burned and caught it in his hip pocket.
April 9, 2023 at 2:46 pm #216056Yeah Euro, Carlson almost always looks nice and smooth out there in the OF. A guy that I always thought had the most graceful looking gate I’d ever seen was Devon White. He took on the look of a gazelle whether he was running down a fly ball or simply trotting on in to the Blue Jay’s dugout after a final out of an inning. He possessed exceptional speed, but you hardly noticed because it looked effortless.

ParticipantBurleson is the slowest, worst outfielder in the league. All other outfielders catch that ball. Should be a 1-1 game.
Wood has pitched pretty well this gameApril 9, 2023 at 2:55 pm #216058I’m guessing you’ve never seen Yepez slip on an oven mitt…
April 9, 2023 at 2:56 pm #216059OMG, did you see that one that just went over O’Neill’s head. That was the equivalent of the rounding third at half speed play. Good grief.
April 9, 2023 at 3:00 pm #216060I hadn’t at all foreseen the issue, but the play in the OF has been horrendous at all 3 positions to this point.

ParticipantWell I thought overall Woodford pitched well. Defense could have helped him out a little. He’s not a shutout pitcher but generally he will keep you in most games. Not going to win too many scoring one run so offense needs to get going
April 9, 2023 at 3:02 pm #216062Real nice work from Pallante to keep it a 2 run game.

ParticipantWell I don’t consider O’Neil a center fielder and the other guys you can barely call outfielders. But that’s the chance you take with going for offense over defense. Though that offense hasn’t shown up yet
April 9, 2023 at 3:07 pm #216064Two gimme’s after the 3-0…
April 9, 2023 at 3:07 pm #216065Nice…A BB in front of Goldy.
April 9, 2023 at 3:08 pm #216066C’mon, Nado…

ParticipantJust not getting that big hit when needed.
April 9, 2023 at 3:12 pm #216068Something’s missing here.
April 9, 2023 at 3:19 pm #216069Yeah, those 2 out RBI hits are scant, Willie.
April 9, 2023 at 3:25 pm #216070I guess we might as well bring in Hicks now. It’s a lost cause.
April 9, 2023 at 3:28 pm #2160711982 willie
ParticipantWell this game has gotten away from us here. I’m going to give more blame to the offense today though our relief has struggled a lot. Maybe a different experience if we had gotten a couple big hits and it was tied. As is the brewers hitters just feel like they are playing with house money when they go hit.
April 9, 2023 at 3:36 pm #216072Nice PA for Walker to grind out the BB after being buried in the count.
April 9, 2023 at 3:43 pm #216073Disappointing AB for Eddie. Down by 5 runs, he ought to be taking on the 3-1.
April 9, 2023 at 3:45 pm #216074Lousy to PH for Donovan. It’s not like Pujols is coming off the bench.
April 9, 2023 at 3:46 pm #216075Jammed up with no outs and can’t push across a solitary baserunner.
April 9, 2023 at 3:46 pm #2160761982 willie
ParticipantI don’t know if putting a pinch hitter in that hasn’t had a rbi in 5 years is the right move but I don’t get paid to make the decisions. I know the pitcher is a lefty but still
