The beat goes on, 5 runs and 31 pitches in 1st inning.
Can anybody throw the ball BELOW the waist on this team?

Cerano needs to find a flock of live chickens (apologies CB) to change the luck around. Even for the Crew, this collapse seems monumental. I shut the game off after the Freese slam.
Well, then you missed two three run homers by Aramis Ramirez.
Score is 7-6 in the 6th

Good to see Ramirez heating up. Just in time to pick up the slack from Yuni B coming back to earth. Having Yuni/Rickie batting in the 6/7 spots back to back is a black hole in the lineup.
they tried
Peralta is exactly what is right and wrong with this team.
At times, he looks great and other times he looks flat out brutal. The inconsistencies are killing this team.
The reality is that Peralta probably could have used more experience in the minors.
So far, the all the positive energy related to Mike Fiers, Wily Peralta, and Mark Rogers coming into this year has been flushed down the drain. Their starting pitching overall is below average. Until they get that addressed I am expecting more of the same.

Seattle has a bunch of young starters in AA and AAA that would look good in Mil during a deadline deal.
As much as we like Fiers he is what he is a 4/5 starter... at best.
Estrada fits that same bill probably more of a fringe 5 or a guy you'd use in the pen.
Peralta has talent - but as was noted above is very inconsistent.
Burgos, well, AAAA.

no one should be surprised the young pitching is inconsistant

The Mariners aren't dealing Walker or Hultzen, and I'd be surprised if they dealt Paxton.
From the linked article, I don't understand this:
Why does a manager need a "chance" to talk to his team? Call a meeting or tell everyone you want to talk to them! Whose permission does he need?

I'll take that from Ax. If his hammer is working, he can be an effective pitcher.
Bianchi with a huge hit right there. First and third with no outs almost ends horribly.
BREWERS WIN!!!! BREWERS WIN!!!!!! BREWERS WINNNNNN!!!!!!!!
Cue up the "why isn't Bianchi playing instead of Weeks comments?"
Compromise!

un-freakin-believable!
Milwaukee cannot afford to make mistakes,vs Cardinals, like this one in the first where Aoki gets picked off of third base by Molina...

Lohse is frustrated after giving up those 4 runs. Just fundamental baseball by STL right now, which is exactly what the Crew hasn't been doing. Lohse jawing a bit, wondering if we might see a bean ball here shortly.
I take it back, a good solid 5th by Lohse. Can understand the frustration.
Bianchi should be starting at 2nd occasionally, Weeks is lost right now.
This years Mark Kotsay?
•To make room for Enright on the Triple-A Salt Lake roster, Bill Hall was released, tweeted Bees' radio broadcaster Steve Klauke. Hall produced a meager slash of .164/.282/.233 in 85 plate appearances for Salt Lake. Hall last saw MLB action in 2012 with the Orioles going two-for-nine with one home run in 14 plate appearances.

Adam McCalvy If #Brewers fans need some good news, I have it: Won't see Cardinals again until the second half of August.
That's fine and dandy, but what about the Pirates, Reds, hell most of MLB.
The Brewers are on pace to lose 100 games.
Wow!!!! brutal road trip against 3 HOT teams and no rest for the weary.
Come home to face Kershaw and Greinke.

We are attending Monday and Wednesday. Originally figured Zack would pitch Monday as he last pitched was Wednesday and no off days in between. Next best is Kershaw and then Ryu.
