5/18/06 Phillies (Hamels) @ Brewers (Eveland), 12:05 PM CST

Dana is gone? I wouldnt pull him yet unless there are 2 on and nobody out. Otherwise he can go another inning or 2.

 

This one is on the offense today. You can't expect a lot more outta Eveland than 5 or 6 innings and 4 runs. That gives you a chance to win the game.

 

**Edit: There is 2 on with none out. Hart is the man. What a spot for a jack.

[davemakovec]

Brady with a lead-off walk. Who do you pinch here? You really have to sit Eveland down due to his 104 pitches.

 

Edit: with the Bad Chad walk, Hart comes in. I like seeing him get a shot.

[Ralph Wiggum]

I'm starting to miss Brady at the top of the order. Rickie isn't real great at taking pitches.

[hauser42]

Thank God. Dana's gone. Hopefully gone to AAA.

 

You would take his spot in the rotation?? He is going to be up here for teh time being. We do not have much to replace him right now.

 

Need to start hitting the ball today.

[Team Canada]

Time for Corey to make a splash.

 

Drat.

 

Double drat. Darn you Phillies.

[davego]

Shoot. Well I guess it would have been better for Corey to K.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Ralph Wiggum]

dang it Corey...should have bunted there.

[Trowekamp]

Hamels throws a lot in the dirt.. hopefully one squeaks through.

[davemakovec]

C'mon Rickie, we need something here.

[Sheets4theHOF]

DAMN! Hits it hard but right at bell.

 

I dislike double plays very much. That might have the only shot the crew will get at a rally.

You're right. I had NO idea he was that high. I'm busy at work and hadn't looked.

[Sheets4theHOF]

Goodness. Two hard hit balls with men in scoring position with nothing to show for it.

 

This kid is lucky and good.

Give Zach Jackson a shot.

[jloos19]

You know what's sad? When I see "in play, no out recorded" on MLB Gameday, and I assume it's an error on Weeks, that's really not a good thing.

[bsglorydays]

Rickie, Rickie, Rickie. Ughh.

 

Double play saves it though!

[Team Canada]

Nice DP to bail out Rickie. That kid is so frustrating.

[brewmann04]

Is this Philly pitcher that good or are the crew off today?

[Ralph Wiggum]

Eveland really wasn't horrid today. The Brewers inability to get to a wild rookie lefty is dooming them. Hamels has been doing it with smoke and mirrors.

[davemakovec]

At least Rickie knows where to be on a bunt.

[Trowekamp]

I agree on Eveland.. not a stellar outing but kept his team in it through 5.. Offense needs to do what the Phillies did and beat up on a rookie..

 

2 weeks ago everybody was screaming for Eveland.. I think Hendrickson is on a shorter leash than Dana..

[Trowekamp]

Don't you think right now that Lehr, Demaria, and Hendrickson are pitching for their roster spots each time out?

[mpepy05]

So, 80 pitches so far for hamels. 46 strikes. As they say about davis, effectively wild?

He's one of the best pitching prospects in all of baseball.

[jloos19]

Trowekamp, who would replaced them.

 

On another note, Cincy came back from 6-0 in the 1st and now lead 9-7. Nice job Vampire.

Agreed...now there are calls for Zack Jackson. Rookie pitchers are basically rookie pitchers.

 

This rotation needs a nice heap of Rick Helling. It also needs an ace that isn't injury prone.
