Could have been much worse.

 

It's a shame it cost Doug like 30 pitches, though.

[wisconsinfan47]

Oh Glory Hallelujah.

 

Still 3-1 Good Guys

[Trowekamp]

April 1st:

Doug Melvin: What would it take to sign Doug?

Davis' Agent: 5 years 50 million.

Doug: Let us think about it.

 

May 1st:

Doug: We were thinking 2 years 14 million

Davis' Agent: 2 years 14.5 million

 

May 15th:

Davis' Agent: We will take 2 years 14 million.

Doug: We actually were thinking 2 years 9 million.

Davis': Let's see what happens with Doug's next to starts..

 

Tonight:

Davis' Agent: So we agree to the veteran's minimum for 5 years correct?

Doug: Are you sure that you can't find a birth certificate that shows Davis is a rookie so we can pay him according to the way he is pitching?

[JoeH33]

Davis did well to get out of that jam, gotta hand it to him there i guess.

Brady for MVP.

[AJ Love]

Great to see that Brady is back

[Trowekamp]

atta boy Brady.. way to get the pitcher up

[AJ Love]

"If you can get a pitcher like Ben Sheets healthy, it's like signing a marquee free agent in the middle of the season"--- dumbest statement of the month by Daron Sutton, and that's saying something

[Trowekamp]

is there some MLB rule that says when the 5th hitter has an 60 point higher batting average than the 3 hitter that Ned is forced to make a switch?

It is arguable that Fielder is seeing better balls to hit batting after Lee than he would batting before him... plus he's a rookie... I wouldn't move him

[TauPentaRei]

Reds play by play guy just announced that Encarnacion's fielding coach is Bucky Dent...

 

That's gotta be a tough introduction.

[wisconsinfan47]

It was 3-1 at one point last night...We really need some insurance...No laying down now please!!!

 

Jenkins gets hit by a pitch, and Bill Welky is not at home, so we get a man on.

Whats stupid about that statement?

 

We have no #1 pitcher right now, and getting Sheets back would give us one again. Seems like a pretty reasonable statement to me.

[wisconsinfan47]

Woot!!!!!!!!!

 

5-1 Brewers on an El Caballo shot!

 

I love the 2-out magic!

[Point Beer Is Best]

SIGN CARLOS!

 

edit: Finally, I figured out the blue font.

[milwaukeesportsfan]

That one was a no-doubter. Good work, Carlos

[burniebrewer]

Boom!

 

Bombs away for Carlos!

[JoeH33]

If Carlos can keep doing that, I think I can ignore his complete lack of hustle/defense.

If we really didn't have Sheets, we would have had $10 million more to spend on pitching (not that I'm advocating that)...

[AJ Love]

Nice to see Carlos heating up right before going to that launching pad in Philly

I think you have it backwards, but maybe i'm wrong. Could you please explain this?

[JoeH33]

Whats with Billy not being able to hit lefties today?

[AJ Love]

LOL, actually, you're right I had that backwards in regards to Fielder... never mind http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[steve267268]

you know, having Brady batting after Miller can't be a bad thing. Ouch, didn't work out there, but it will in the future.

[JoeH33]

Moeller who?
