Grienke didn't even start the 7th. The 7th crap-show was all Bracho.

OR.
1 earned run I guess not. I must have dosed off. I guess I wasn't alone. Why did they pull him then?

I thought they pulled him after the bases were loaded?
Nope, thankfully. Bracho stared that inning and that was all his runs. Greinke was up to like 95 pitches at the end of the 6th and they pinch hit for him thus Bracho started the 7th

Yes what happened in the 7th had nothing to do with Grienke.

And I'm sorry but getting 6 innings out of your starter is enough if he leaves you with a 6 run lead... I dont even want our Ace in there in the late innings unless he NEEDS to be. How awesome would it be to run Zack out there with a high pitch count and get him hurt because "Aces should pitch atleast 7" nonsense... There was no reason to push him to go farther when we are up 6 runs. Haters gonna find a way to hate.

Bracho sucks!!! He and Delgado both should go play in Reno for a couple of weeks I'd honestly rather send some of the live arms we have on the farm than these two sure things... lol

I dont understand why we dont use the other Delgado more... This organization must really still have a ton of hope in Randall, because he's been showing us who he is for a few years but they keep going to him consistently.

Bracho 's ERA is 81.00. He better be in Reno or even Mobile by tonight.

'Hate to say I predicted it in the Dodgers thread. Cripes! If I knew it was going to happen, why didn't management? Bracho is not a Major League reliever.

He is one of those guys who pitches well in the minors and is therefore given a chance in the majors, where things change quickly.
