7-5 vs Brew Crew -- NEED A WIN!!

[WMR]

I think others made a valid point that you've GOT to have Belisle available for Atlanta tomorrow w/ Mays taking the mound... that's reasoning that's at least understandable.

[Caveat Emperor]

Unlike Standridge, Belisle at least gives you a chance.

To what? Add another name to the box score before losing? Belisle has looked awful his last few outings as well.

I'm just amazed the bullpen hung around as much as it did tonight.

Good god......aren't you afraid of negative points Kyred14?

You make Homer Simpson sound like Stephen Hawking with those comments.

Edit: My bad, I just hit my boiling point with this team, I guess.

[George Foster]

St. Louis just got Weaver from the Angels.....

[TheBigLebowski]

Man...this one is really going to sting once the bullpen blows it.

Bet we lose this one 6-5. I've seen it too often to get excited, especially against the Brewers.

Nice hit, Ears.

Gotta give myself props.

I know this team.

I, too, GIVE.

You can't be thinking like that. You had to get 3 outs and you win tonight that is for sure. For all we know Mays will go throw a dandy tomorrow.

This year, Standridge entering tonight had a 1.69 ERA. And he got a big strikeout in the 12th.

Belisle has a bad back and a 4.57.

6 Belisle, Half a Dozen Standridge -- does it really make THAT big of a difference who goes out there? Either way, it'd be an adventure to get 3 outs.

[Matt700wlw]

Make moves now.

Somebody. Anybody.

[oneupper]

I for one don't blame this one on Narron. I still think he's a bad manager, but this loss isn't his fault.

You can always do some things better, but the players have to hit, pitch, field and run, too...

Brewers are good hitting team and theyv'e been doing this (coming back) all year at home against many teams.

Exactly...you win today, worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.

I don't feel *as* terribly now.

Kudos to Narron, he actually didn't screw this one up, just a victim of a bad pen. Standridge sunk his own ship by walking Gross.

[reds44]

Exactly...you win today, worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.

That being said, I would have pitched Standridge in the 13th. I agree with who Narron put out there.
