Yeah, he's been exposed a bit in the field tonight unfortunately.

He had no idea where the bag was. That's pretty much rule #1 for a 2B or SS. Find the base, look for the throw.

I don't mind the gamble the Brewers are making with Moose at 2B, but I'd consider promoting Hiura and moving Moose or Shaw to 1B, especially if Aguilar doesn't get going. Dude is raking right now.

JJ's velocity is way down.

Five Ks and getting out of that situation is just ridiculous.

Approaching?

I'll never understand how he got to the majors. He shows his hand so early it's begging to be hit. How has he not been coached out of that?!

He was a solid reliever for most of his career. I wonder if he's hurt. I could see him finding his way to the IL with "shoulder soreness" so they can evaluate his mechanics.

How can they move forward with this bullpen? I just don’t comprehend.

Gamel would've caught that if Barnes was a better pitcher.

Oof. Between the Bucks and Brewers losing, and the Battle of Winterfell, this shaping up to be a bummer of a day.

Don't worry, the battle of Winterfell was tantamount to the Bucks scoring 23 points in the last 15 seconds as the Celtics somehow kept throwing the ball out of bounds.

There are like 50 elite/very good relievers in baseball and 50-100 more good/solid ones. We arguably had 3 elite/very good ones going into the season and now have 1.5 due to injury.

The **** thing is other than Gio working out well and therefore allowing Burnes or Woodruff to recreate their bullpen magic or overpaying Kimbrel, it's hard to get out of this box. Everyone covets them and odds are high that when you're forced to dip into random free agency hoping for a serviceable guy that you end up with a 2019 Alex Wilson.
