4/3/08 Brewers (Bush) at Cubs (Dempster): 1:20 PM CDT

And he's staying in.....

[JohnBriggs12]

Getting through that just one run down was huge. The game could have gotten out of hand very easily. Then again it was all self inflicted.

[sheetswannabe]

This new lineup sucks, Bush leads off an inning... ugh

[Bernman23]

wow... 4 pitch walk for a run. Come on Bush, you are better than this.

No, he's not.

And I'd like to inform Brian Anderson that Carlos Villanueva has the best control of anyone on the staff. He's a painter.

[bluemoundlotallstar]

throw him one more inning with someone ready to go if he struggles. meat of the order coming up for the Chubs.

[bacon06]

I didn't know pitches at the belt were too high. This ump is squeezing.

[Fear The Chorizo]

about as good as can be expected when you walk 3 guys and hit another during an inning....woulda been a whole lot better if he would make them swing though.

 

2 of the cubs 3 runs scored reached on walks, and the 3rd reached on a sketchy defensive play

 

still, this team has 2 hits of Dempster in 4 innings - that's not going to win most days anyway...let's get the bats going

[sheetswannabe]

Feels like last year people making their first starts, struggling pitchers, or rusty pitchers own us.....Aces' get rocked.

[aracko]

Kendall sees alot of pitches every at bat it seems.

[bthurley19]

Nice work Kendall

[sheetswannabe]

Basehit!! 3 hits on Dumpster, great AB Kendall

[jhart05]

Regardless of how you think Bush is pitching, two hits off this hack Dempster is not good enough anyway.

 

Strike that, three hits now.

[aracko]

Stolen Base......Come on!

[trwi7]

And I'd like to inform Brian Anderson that Carlos Villanueva has the best control of anyone on the staff. He's a painter.

The same Carlos Villanueva that walked over 4 per 9 innings last year? I would say Sheets has the best control.

[sheetswannabe]

Lots of the Brewers wearing the old style socks, me likey!

 

Comeon TGJ!

[sheetswannabe]

Sheets has the best control by far. 264K 32BB...need I say more?

[Baldkin]

Bush is really hitting the spots in the top of the zone today, Kendall isn't moving his glove, the ump just isn't calling them. I couldn't believe the 2-0 pitch to Soriano wasn't a strike... and he really didn't want to throw Soriano a low pitch on 2-0.

 

Lets get back to throwing strikes and getting guys out now, 31.

[Fear The Chorizo]

need to hold them here - if that means yanking Bush after the leadoff man reaches, so be it

[zzzmanwitz]

When do we get cameron back?

[sheetswannabe]

Nice job Bushie.. leadoff man scratched..

[sheetswannabe]

wow........ I hate Ramirez..

[bthurley19]

Dave Bush sucks

[PrinceFielder28]

thanks Dave you are just pitching horrible...time for Seth McSuck

[2hoophead]

Is it sacriligious(SP?) to say Uecker is losing it??

 

Looking for a retraction, but Uecker is starting to lose it. Stated that the Brewers play again at the end of the month in Chicago and "that is it".

 

WRONG!

 

They play a three game series in the middle of September.

[giffted1]

Bush should really try getting ahead of batters or this will only get worse.
