Was that a missed hit n run?

Don't think so, maybe he was baiting a throw so Cain could go home or he wasn't expecting a throw because of that. Really poor decision though.

No doubt, very bad.

Simultaneously amazing and saddening to watch Hader work (O's traded him in 2014).

lol... Orioles.

Here I thought the Brewers were dumb for starting Orlando Arcia and of course he's 4-4 lol.

Right, have a game!

[bzapple]

Wow, Hader just destroyed Murphy.

[Spanky__99]

What a beast Hader is, unreal.

[HealthDream007]

Oooh, I thought he made have had that for a second.

[Spanky__99]

Good ball game... onto the next. Brewers have won 9 straight now, right?

[Orgfiller]

Josh Hader is so f***ing good.

I think it's 8.

[Spanky__99]

I think it's 8.

 

Nah, 9 including todays game.

German Marquez became a near Ace this year and I didn't even notice.

I did and was pissed for giving up on him in more than 1 league.

It’s weird to me that a 3.3 FIP over 191 innings is only 4.5 fWAR for a Colorado pitcher

[Spanky__99]

David Dahl is cray, I thought he'd come up broken, lol.

[Spanky__99]

That looks safe, tough to overturn. Good call... can't overturn that.

I just realised these games are on in the afternoon. FFS - people have to work. I was all jacked to watch them this evening.

Yeah so many of us make fun of small sample sizes but then rip a manager for their lineup for a single game. Sometimes "wrong" decisions just work out.

His FIP- is 77, for comparison Kluber has a 3.13 FIP which translates to a 74 FIP- in Cleveland. Chris Sale and deGrom both have sub 50 FIP- which is absurd, with the latter of course doing it over 60 more innings.

deGrom's a lock for the Cy, it would be criminal if he doesn't win it.

He should be a lock but unfortunately in 2018 people still value W-L record for pitchers

[Spanky__99]

Not as much as in the past, he should win it. Think King Felix.

[Spanky__99]

Rick Sutcliffe is going to kill us all post-season right?

[Captain Adama]

Simultaneously amazing and saddening to watch Hader work (O's traded him in 2014).

 

He probably wouldve sucked if he stayed with the Orioles.

[Orgfiller]

This is an awesome pitching duel.

[Spanky__99]

Marquez really has been a tale of 2 pitchers, this season. He went from good to elite, I was hoping Gray would be that guy.
