6/9/07 Brewers (Sheets) @ Rangers (McCarthy): 7:35 PM CDT

That hit by Braun would have probably been out of Miller Park.

[BrewCityUnit]

This is a mistake by Texas. I guarantee Hart will make them pay for this intentional walk.

[DougJones43]

My subpoint being that the kneejerk reactions by us fans never take into account the things that we aren't privy to.... just to head off some future panic off at the pass...

 

I'm just half-kidding around anyway. I don't actually shriek in horror when T-Bow enters a game, and I don't really want to kick Ned in the face, I guess... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[TauPentaRei]

fact: Turnbow was brought in at the beginning of the inning.

 

fact: Turnbow is a headcase

 

fact: Turnbow does not like inherited runners

 

fact: Turnbow pitched well tonite.

[BrewCrewForever]

I always think Turnbow has a better chance for a good outing when he starts his inning. He should never be brough in again with men on.

[pebadger]

i've got a feeling we need at least 1 here. All confidence in Coco, but I don't want anything left to chance.

[BrewCityUnit]

I'll say the heat... He looked pretty uncomfortable sitting on the bench, but that's just a total guess

 

 

That would be my guess too.....but then I have to question how good of shape he is in. Then again, I have never pitched 7 innings in that kind of heat at the major league level....so I shouldn't talk.

[Brian the Automator]

[ However, he tickles us with these outings enough to give him chance after chance. ]

 

He's been scored on in 7 of 29 appearances (24%). Of those, 5 were on 0 days rest. I'll take my chances with TBow over the vast majority of NL relievers.

Too bad Estrada is not batting here.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[ I don't really want to kick Ned in the face, I guess... ]

 

But if Ned happened to get kicked in the face by someone else....

Jenkins has to cash in here. Why any team would want to intentionally walk someone in the 9th inning with less than 2 outs make no sense to me.

[Team Canada]

If you project Braun's 50AB's out to 500, you get...

 

100R 160H 40HR 100RBI .947OPS

 

 

Thank you sir may I have another.

[DougJones43]

Whoa. Crazy what can happen when the #5 hitter can actually take a walk...

[BrewCrewForever]

Alright Jenks with the RBI and a two run lead for CoCo.

[bobskube]

Very nice approach by Jenkins.

 

That is how it is done. Very professional Geoff!

[SoCalBrewfan]

It does seem like Turnbow's struggles could be related to usage...he had one blowout after four or five days off, then there was another long layoff (five or six days) followed by four straight appearances.

[Team Canada]

Hey, Graffy!!

[DougJones43]

Sweet! I like getting hits and walks and runs.

[TauPentaRei]

Of those, 5 were on 0 days rest.

 

Damn. Thanks Brian.

 

That is truly awesome and actually deserving of its own thread.

[BrewCityUnit]

For how much heat Graffy and Counsel take....Brewer fans have to give them props tonight. The way I look at it, they can't get much worse and are due to contribute eventually.

[BrewCrewForever]

Yeah I really like Braun, fastly becoming my 2nd favorite Brewer behind Hall.

 

Man we might get enough runs this inning where it wont even be a save situation for Cordero.

[wisconsinfan47]

Stupid bottom of the order...

[BrewCrewForever]

Man as much as I like Hart batting 1st, if Weeks can come back and get right in that spot Hart would be a great cadidate for the 5 hole as a huge improvment over Johnny "one pitch", "pop out" and "GIDP" Estrada.

[TauPentaRei]

Braunaffaninsell is the best third baseman EVER!

Thats the best Turnbow we've seen in about a month.

So you just choose to ignore his

scoreless inning with 2 strikeouts against Florida on June 3rd,

his scoreless inning with 1 strikeout against Florida on June 1st,

his scoreless inning with 2 strikeouts against Atlanta on May 29,

his scoreless inning against Atlanta on May 28th,

his scoreless inning with 1 strikeout on May 27th against San Diego,

his scoreless inning with 1 striekout against Minnesota on May 20th

Or, one could wave the magic wand and bring back the Turnbow from April.

I'll take the Turnbow from this month. He's been great. I thought he pitched well in the Cubs game. He got squeezed on that at-bat by Barrett and had a little texas leaguer squib past Hardy for the run he gave up.
