5/17/07 Brewers (Bush) at Red Sox (Wakefield): 7:35 PM CDT

Got out of it with only 2 runs and only 25 pitches! Just wonderful....

[MoneyballMan]

Hey! At least we got one in play!

[MoneyballMan]

Was that off the wall for Hart? It almost looked out on Gameday!

[hurricane3184]

wow great ovation for Kapler

[TSack27]

According to Uecker, that's what happened.

 

 

Second the nice ovation for Kapler.

[HurricaneBraun]

I think we are gonna win this one

[Brewer Fever]

Run right out of another scoring chance. These are the things that happen when fundamentals are poor and there is no accountability.

[MoneyballMan]

Well, you just have to love the strike em out throw em out play...

[HurricaneBraun]

ugh, what are we doing? Rickie, Why?

[moofnelson]

Ned Yost's only meaningful hit in his career came in '82 at Fenway Park as a member of the Brewers. Maybe his last game as manager will be at Fenway Park too. I believe in things coming full circle.

[jjfanec]

To me it actually makes sense to have Rickie there because then a ground ball scores a run instead becoming a double play. It sucks he got caught, but it wasnt a dumb move

[HurricaneBraun]

great, 4-0 again! crap

[TSack27]

The radio description said it wasn't any kind of designed steal or hit & run. The ball popped out of the catchers glove, as is prone to do with a knuckleballer, then Rickie took off... but the ball hadn't bounced far enough away.

[hurricane3184]

That was a really nice play by Rickie

[pebadger]

How much could this staff fetch on Ebay?

Well then I change my mind. It wasnt a good idea at all.

Things are going downhill for this team quickly. Starting pitching looked to be a strength this year, but it's painfully obvious that it is a glaring weakness right now. You have Sheets and four 4.5+ era pitchers. Something needs to wake up this team right now and have no clue what it is?

[JET15]

Something needs to wake up this team right now and have no clue what it is?

 

How about hitting bottom in the Central? Looks like it could very well happen tonight

[HurricaneBraun]

Okay, prediction time

 

At the all star break, are the Brewers over/under .500?

Under, easily.

[Brewcrewin07]

6 to 7 games under. This HAS to be the most disappointing team in all of baseball so far this year. Injury to Yo or not. I guess we should've known last year was to good to be true. This is the Brewers after all.

[pebadger]

Woogie's sig makes me wonder if the Wisconsin Lottery could do one of their current radio promo songs about the Brewers. Comedic potential is off the charts.

[TSack27]

I'll hold onto my optimism. The opponents between now & then don't look overwhelming and more games at home, including 3 series leading right up to the All-Star break.

 

Even my pessimistic side says at worst they will be a tease and keeping making a bunch of little runs just about when you're ready to give up.

[MoneyballMan]

Under, probably big-time. It will just be interesting to see what DM does come the trade deadline. Figure Sheets gone for sure. Suppan too if he can get decent value back??

[pebadger]

Weeks is really unlucky. He makes good contact and with a few breaks he could easily be hitting at least .205
