Game Thread #129: Making it up as we go

It's already the top of the 3rd and the Brewers are down 2-0. I'm convinced no game thread has caused this, so here's a little different shot at it. To recap: Nyjer Morgan gets on, steals second, then comes around on a pair of ground balls. In the 2nd, Jack Wilson, who sucks, I should remind you, doubles to center and then Zach Duke pokes one into center to drive him in. Not good. Not good at all.
But, a game thread has the power to change all that, see?

I know Bush was due up first in the 7th, but haven’t we been hearing for two weeks now how everybody in the bullpen is well-rested? If that got uglier, why not bring in Shouse or Riske (depending on situation), and then bring Gagné out for the 8th?

About those rules...
The Brewers lost a game they led 5-0 in the 9th inning this year, as I recall.
Stealing third (to score on a ground out) seems like fair game to me when defending a 4-run lead with two innings up for the Pirates.

I just got back (nice inning) and checked the boxscore on gameday. It says that Bautista pitched to 3 batters in the 7th (0 innings), but somehow he is down for 4 earned runs.

a pitcher like that may be of no use yet still be used by you know who
but, he was throwing his change up for strikes and hitting the black with his fastball. Not to say his fastball, as straight as it is, isn’t scary. I think he threw a curve ball for a strike although it yielded a hit.

I saw a similar graphic on FSN (I think)
with Bush’s last start. I believe they compared Bush’s career numbers thusfar to a similar number of games from Glavine to start his career. The numbers were well in Bush’s favor, IIRC.
It must be kind of cool if you’re Tom Glavine, where every lefthanded starting pitcher is always compared to you.
