jesus counsel why are you taking him out after someone reached on an error

"And his on base goes up just a bit"

Says Joe buck the moron



And I really don't get this yanking pitchers who are causing at 80 pitches stuff

Counsell is an idiot. He should have rode that wagon til the wheels fell off. Big picture- the bp can't carry the team through the WS like this.

They got through the entire regular season that way with the best record in the NL.

I've seen enough....milwaukee in 5

lol doyers

Kershaw tomorrow? starters are not yet listed at yahoo sports

Id go Rich Hill

Exactly. They have been playing with borrowed time for a while.

Actually, they are revolutionizing pitching as we know it.

I do think Miley should have been left in longer in game 2, but generally, the starters start getting rocked the third time through the order.

like why are they burning hader here

if hader can get rid of guys that quickly he could probably pitch every game

8 of the 9 dodgers runs have been off the bullpen

good point but the starters haven't gone more than 5 or 6 all year

bringin in jeffress is terrible here should have let hader win it

Counsell’s never pulling Hader again

they should have left in him

Lol he walked before the ball crossed the plate.

Baseball the cheapest of the big 3 sports to attend?

Always have the best crowds.

Grandal beyond useless

Dodgers players complain a lot

HAHAHA

lol such a cruel tease

load bases 1 out and then 2 K's on 7 pitches

nice. in and out of trouble. Jeffress is good and bad lol

has Schoop had an AB this series? lol that guy blows

kind of team-dependent , but in general yes.

Don't pull Soria unless he gives up two baserunners..... if he does let Hader close out the remainder of the 8th and then the 9th....

If Soria gets through the 8th clean, let Jeffress pitch the 9th until he gives up two runners and if he does then let Hader close it out.

Can I haz the Brewers managing job???

You have my vote.

Hader didn't go the 9th because Counsell wants him available tomorrow. Even if he's somehow not available, the threat of him being available changes how the Dodgers do things.

I had no problem bringing Jeffress in with a 4-run lead. He's been awesome all year. Yeah, he's struggled in the playoffs, but they need him if they want to win the whole thing. His stuff actually looked great - he just had trouble locating for a couple batters. He's also had some rough luck with 3-4 lucky base hits. The homer to Turner and double to Machado were grooved, though.


I know it seems weird to take out Chacin when he was pitching well, but his stats aren't good the third time through the order. Look how great Buehler was until he wasn't.
