Another junk ball pitcher...that type of pitcher has been their nemesis all year.

You have a real tendency for jumping on players for being imperfect.

Quintana doesn't shut out a very good offensive team, and it's " a sign of things to come"?

This after allowing two runs?

Has he really performed at a level deserving of criticism?
I brought it up because there was talk on radio about him and playing in pressure/big games...
That he hasn't really had to play in any throughout his career and they were wondering how he going to handle them with cubs..

They mentioned how he wasn't sharp against cardinals early in first home game but settled down..

Now tonight in somewhat a big/pressure game against team their battling for 1st, he a bit wild and given up some hard hit balls, he not really fooling anyone..
Lucky to only given up 2 so far..


Look, I'm not saying he bad or anything
Just putting out there something to watch for in future meaningful games..

Q has not been sharp but he's keeping them in the game....he gets through the sixth and it's a quality start. He's doing his job.

First batter even walked....

He got the hitters baffled tonight


I just hope our guys are hitting the next 2 games cause we don't know yet what were gonna get from Hendricks tomorrow and then Homerun Lackey on Sunday..

So, we can easily get swept this weekend if bats go cold, then they get Arizona and Washington next week..
Could go south fast facing better teams and pitching then they did the past week..

Well, Schwarber's history against "junk shit" is, shall we say, "questionable"?

Schwarber can bat in the ninth against the next guy.

Going with the #2 group of relievers....got through a Rondon inning....this Grimm is annoying because he only throws two pitches. If he can't get the curve over, he's meat.

People can complain about the offense and that's fine but the reality here is both teams have 7 hits/bb. Brewers just have gotten theirs in better sequence.

If Bryant had thrown home, we'd be tied.

Rizzo just swung at Ball 4. one run game, let's not be too proud to take a walk.
