Yost is pretty even-tempered, but it may be time to throw a couple of chairs through the wall in the clubhouse.

Preferrably on the road so the Miller Park guys don't have to hire people to fix the walls and buy new chairs.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Bill says, "Anthony Reyes, with an ERA over 6, so the Brewers should be able to put some runs on the board". And how many times have we made guys like this look like Cy Young?

 

Ok, Prince, good start. Let's make Bill Nastradamous. (even though I'm sure I spelled Nastradamus wrong)

[MoneyballMan]

Wow, Rolen didn't want a piece of Prince, did he?

[adambr2]

Great! As if today wasn't bad enough already, now Cappy is Crappy. I guess we're figuring, why get our young guy his first win when we can just get their's his first?

 

I cannot believe how much my mood has swung in the last 4 1/2 hours about this team. Hours ago, we were feeling great, up 6-0, chased the Cardinals starter out early, had a fresh pen, and a great matchup to look forward to tonight.

 

Now our "elite" closer blew another one, we pissed away a 6 run lead, the Cubs are blowing out the Reds, and we have proven once again our inability to win on the road.

 

I've waited too long for a competitive team for this. I'm as starving for a winning team as all of you. But this team is not a winning team, and they won't be until they figure out how to at least be competitive on the road. This kind of road play just isn't nearly good enough.

I beleive the correct answer to the question "When was the last time the Breers and Cubs were tied in the loss column?" is April 9.

 

By posting the answer preemptively, I'm hoping we won't be needing that answer in anything but a hypothetical situation for at least a day, if ever..

[FielderWeeksHardyBraunHart]

the problem is, on the road, it seems like if we score first, they always catch up and beat us but if they score first, we never catch up. i cant remember the last time the brewers made a comeback of 4+ runs to win. i think its time to finally return the favor to all these teams.

[brewcrewkid14]

I think the problem on the road is that our all-star closer has an ERA of probably around 8 on th road so when we actually have leads on the road, most of the time they are blown.

[FielderWeeksHardyBraunHart]

how bout we call cordero jeckell and hyde. jeckell being the home version and hyde being the away....at least until he finds a "remedy". i think it should stick

[MoneyballMan]

Dave Nelson: "And Anthony Reyes, not pitching like a pitcher with a 6.40 ERA".

 

No kidding, Dave. He's facing the Brewers at home! We have made worse pitchers than Reyes look like Cy Young.

[cruiserx43]

Is the crew seriously going to only get up 1 hit through 5IP?

[Ennder]

Balfour is getting roughed up by Boston... glad I'm not home watching this Brewer game, looks brutal.

[BREWCREW5]

Jenkins is as cold as ice right now. wow.

[mastershake76]

Fork, Brewers. Brewers, fork.

[MoneyballMan]

This sucks.

 

That's all.

[cruiserx43]

Yeh for Corey. Pls hold them Cappy.

[hawing]

Corey also comes through for the home run inning contestant, who had picked Corey Hart ($800 instead of $200).

[cruiserx43]

Braun, what's going on?

[cruiserx43]

Big out Cap, let's hope LaRussa made a mistake by pulling Reyes...heck he only gave up 2 hits.

[JET15]

Cappy pulls off the quality start. Now lets get some runs and salvage this thoroughly miserable day.

[phatmatt1215]

Brewers should just dump Jenkins and eat his salary. He's doing us no good.

[jwill535]

Jenkins is and will forever be a pile of crap. Watching him hit makes me yearn for more Mench. I am pretty sure i could strike him out, fastball outsid corner, high fastball and then breaking ball in and down gets him every time.

[brewers255]

We need a LF. Adam Dunn or Jermaine Dye will be good.

[cruiserx43]

Cappy has to be a little tired by now?

[wdh7]

jenkins veteran presence is being felt

[phatmatt1215]

Stay away from Dun with a 1,000,000 foot pole.
