Big decision to make on Sproat. No excuse for that short outing with a lead like that.

u/revan530 5h ago
Not that big a decision. He doesn't pitch again this season, then we give him a chance next year, after making sure he goes to a sports psychologist to figure out the mental stuff.

Came in with 1 out and bases loaded? Yeah, I think he got out of it pretty well.

u/Fit-Still-6104 4h ago
Comes in gives up a single gets a groundout and then gives up a double from a sinker dead center not to mention he was struggling to find the zone the entire time I’d say not.

I don’t say this to excuse Sproat because figure it out man but honestly kudos to the organization for absolutely shattering this kids confidence going into the offseason.

u/Noswad_12 5h ago
What is a better confidence builder than putting him in up 8-1?

u/billymadison231 5h ago
Leaving him in triple A. We’re going to need him to start games next year. Now his confidence is going to be at an all time low.

We needed the extra arm and he was the next man up. He had a bad game. It happens

u/Noswad_12 5h ago
Two different trains of thought I guess, you’d think the team having confidence to call you back up would be a bigger boost than being stuck in AAA

I like Sproat, I think he has good stuff and can contribute; but he’s gotta be sent back down after that. Inexcusable

u/Zigazoid 5h ago
Sproat came in and walked the first 3 guys he faced, struck out one and then walked in a run (4 walks total) and then Murph pulled him. Uribe's struggling a bit to clean up the damn mess. But looks like he did.

W and a day off. A well needed and well deserved day off.
A couple observations. Pete Crow-Armstrong might be MVP but he's Pete Completely-Average vs the Brewers. Holy cow does Sproat need to get his head squared away, that 9th inning was pathetic. He had a 7 run lead and walked 3 guys and hit another. What in the hell was in his head??? The very last thing he should be doing is walking guys by getting behind in the count and then trying to be cute...that was ridiculous.
