Wonder if the Brewers bring up Broxton. Would be cool if they got one of his hot streaks. When he's going good he can be electric, or he can strike out like 75% of his plate appearance for two weeks lol

It would make sense as a defensive sub and somewhat of a platoon. Gamel has reverse-splits so he hits well against lefties, but Broxton seems to be exclusively only decent against lefties.

Looking at that home opener lineup has me pondering how the hell we got here.

Anderson strikes out Grandal with a guy on 3rd and 1 out except the ump doesn't call it and Grandal hits a sac fly on the next pitch. Neat

Burnes one out away from a great outing and he blows it. ****

Love not using the best relief in high pressure situations.

Yeah, we used to be at the forefront of relief pitcher usage. Maybe we should use Hader at key points in the game again, especially in this shortened season. You can probably push his usage.

Logan Morrison should probably you know get hits if he wants to be the designated hitter.

Maybe a 60 or less game season is good for us.

This team might get buried with 10 straight games against the Twins/Cubs coming up. Bats need to wake up.
