7/26/07 Brewers (Bush) @ Reds (Livingston) 11:35 AM CDT

[JohnBriggs12]

Let's see now. 37 year old Junior, having started every Red game since the All Star Break, and playing in a day game after a night game is a triple away from the cycle.

 

Meanwhile in the Brewer dougout is our 23 year old MVP candidate because his manager has decided he needs a day off.

 

At least he decided to play Braun today to make it interesting.

Come on guys, we have to help Ryan out. He is good, but cant do it alone.

No, but he comes darn close.

[BrewCrewForever]

It's like Braun created himself in career mode on MLB 07 The Show and keeps adding to his attributes after every game.

 

No kidding, that is what it seems like. God he keeps this up his cards are going to skyrocket in value.

[SeriesFinale]

It took Livingston 5 pitches to get the next three guys out, c'mon Crew

Griffey sat out July 15th and July 20th. If you are going to post crap like that at least come up with some facts first. We get it, you don't think our players should ever rest, can we just drop it now?

# of hard hit balls off Brewer bats that haven't resulted in hits starting to get too high for comfort.

 

Difference in the game so far is Bush walking himself into trouble last inning

If Ripken never needed a day off, why would anyone else?

 

Buncha whiney spoiled babies.

 

 

I also think it's funny how you keep giving examples and someone comes back to state all the off days.

[craigharmann]

A team of Bill Halls and Ryan Brauns would be unstoppable!

[zzzmanwitz]

Prince has played 100 games this year, Griffey has played 94

[Fike85]

Annnnd I think it's time to pull Bush.

[PrinceFielder28]

What was Bush's pitch count at?

[BrewCrewForever]

That would be ultimate.

[PrinceFielder28]

OK guys Prince has the day off get over it

That was a wonderful post ender

[Mike2k33]

What was Bush's pitch count at?

 

109, I believe.

[PrinceFielder28]

way to go shouse!

[brewcrew00]

Everyone wondered what Braun could do without Prince behind him in the lineup, like if he could still get/hit the same pitches he was. Well, yup.

Even if this was true (it's not - he has taken days off), he went 0 for 5 yesterday, 0 for 4 Tuesday, and 1 for 5 Monday.

 

Point is, you can't look at one game and use that as your evidence. Sample size, my friend.

[jlau20]

Is there anyone who thinks Braun has a shot to catch Prince in HR's?

 

Honestly I don't want to see it happen because it would mean Prince's homerless streaks continue, but being that Prince has now had 4 HR's (or so) in the last month (or so), and given the pace Braun has been on and is on, I think there's atleast an outside shot Braun could tie him come years end.

 

Notice I put he or so's in there because I'm too tired too look up to confirm, so don't yell at me, please?

 

EDIT: I looked it up. It's 4 not 2.

[Fear The Chorizo]

pitch count isn't that important when the Reds' lineup is turning over for a 4th time.

 

Bush was done...Shouse was just nasty to Hatterberg there.

 

The way this game's going, it'd be key to get out of this inning without having Griffey come up

[Team Canada]

Nice job Shousie

[SeriesFinale]

Way to keep the Crew in it, Shouse

[craigharmann]

We gotta get some runs soon! Come on boys!

 

Edit: And Saarloos is in...that should help!
