Did anybody see my earlier post that mentioned suppan throwing 6 innings giving 18 hits and giving up only four. can you say psychic. or i just watch to much brewer baseball.

 

How is that psychic? He's given up 7 hits and 5 runs....

[jlau20]

Ugh. It was fun to see a Pete Rose-Craig Coshun interview atleast.

 

Go Cardinals.

 

And I only have one word to describe tonight's Brewer lineup...

 

Silly.

[JohnBriggs12]

This just in, veteran well above .500 manager Lou Piniella is not resting Soriano, Ramirez or Lee.

 

Veteran well below .500 manager Ned Yost is resting Ryan Braun, JJ Hardy, and Corey Hart.

[Bruce Ciskie]

July 26 - Brewers trade P Jeff Suppan and cash considerations to Devil Rays for player to be named later.

[bobskube]

Suppan has lost it.

[jloos19]

We can keep blaming the pathetic lineup all we want, but Suppan has still given up 5 runs and it's only the 4th inning. Even our offense at full strength would be struggling to stay in this game. The point is, Suppan stinks and I strongly dislike him.

[SeriesFinale]

Let's Go Cards, ugh

 

Earlier in the year we were killing crummy teams like this. Now we keep coughing up series to the likes of Washington, SF and now possibly the Reds. Doesn't bode well.

Did Pete Rose just mention how he "works" in Vegas 15 days a year? Really Pete?

I'm not listening to/watching the game, but I assume he is referring to the days he is in Vegas charging a bazillion dollars for his autograph. I remember when I was at the World Series of Poker last year seeing a sign advertising that he and Joe Montana were going to be holding autograph sessions. I don't remember the exact price, but it was something like $40-$60.

 

 

As for the game, well, it looks like we need to score at least 6 runs now if we're going to win.

 

Our last forfeit lineup scored 10, so I would think this one could score about 12, since it is about 20% more forfeity.

Can't disagree with you, but I can't help but look at the lineup and just shrug and say, huh?

The longer Suppan pitches, the higher that number goes.

 

Quite a long way from 0, I'd say.

Don't get me wrong, I hate the lineup too. I just hate Suppan a little bit more.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[mikevan1818]

Is it just me...or have we hit the ball to the warning track about once an inning this series?

[BrewCrewForever]

Im so sick of Suppan and his crappy outings. Dude is not worth that money.

[jlau20]

Anybody think we could even get a bag of balls for Jeffrey "Hammonds" Suppan right now?

 

I like the nickname, for the time being.

 

It looks like FSN might be giving up on the game, another Craig Coshun interview already.

[TheCrew07]

I think I'm turning off the game, the last 24 hours have really beat me down in regards to the crew. Go Crew... put up a nice comeback victory please.

[wibadgers23]

I think the big question is who is more pathetic tonight - our offense or Suppan?

[packfan79]

According to the idiot Espn announcers the Brewers need a CF because they don't know when Bill Hall is coming back. It amazes me that they let these clowns on air.

 

Sorry I'm switching back and forth Yost's B squad is killing me...

[Bruce Ciskie]

Wow. ESPN is letting Steve Phillips work a game. I feel so bad for Dan Shulman, who is really, really good.

[prince of roy]

Steve Phillips is an idiot on ESPN2 he just said the brewers need a CF and a guy like Jeff Conine. Does he even watch Billy is back and Conine sucks strikes(i would say balls but that may be inappropriate). He is a terrible analyst and GM. Please get another job with a team preferably the cubs.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Where the hell would we put Conine? Is Phillips stupid enough to think we would give him playing time over Fielder?

 

(Questions: Rhetorical)

[funkyplaidcoat]

OMG pete rose is now interviewing with the Cinci folks. He needs a booth job. He's slimy, but he tells it like it is.

 

Forfeit lineup

[JET15]

Those crafty veterans just executed the baseball version of the Hook and lateral.

 

Nice job, Men

I also heard that. It made me chuckle and shake my head at the same time.

 

I to think Jeff Suppan is going to be in the same boat as Jeffrey Hammonds when it is all said and done.

[BrewCrewForever]

Suppan how can you even face your team members everyday in the locker room as they well know you make more then any of them. And you dont deserve it.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Suppan will end up being okay for us. Certainly not worth $10 million per.

 

The problem is that he's not spotting his pitches well at all right now. And when a control pitcher has no control, well...
