Davis! Stop walking people! He's so frustrating.

[jloos19]

Jose got a hold of that one.

[strawbossisevil]

Its really nice to see Davis continue to give up at least a walk an inning. With that kind of effort he'll go places (like Nashville, Huntsville...).

[wisconsinfan47]

You know, DD is struggling to find the strike zone alright, but when he does, they're the right pitches...He jammed Reyes like no other to get out of the mini-jam.

[artvandalay]

Anybody else interested in seeing Ned move Carlos up to the 3 spot, Prince to the 4, and drop Jenkins to 5 or lower?

[jloos19]

Alright Corey, that a way to get in scoring position for Damian.

[strawbossisevil]

Hey Koskie with a shot. Let's go Miller. Let's get at least one this inning.

 

Edit: Or not.

[jloos19]

Phew, Davis is giving me a heart attack this afternoon. As long as he's not giving up runs, I'm happy. Hopefully he can go 6 today.

[strawbossisevil]

Davis at 100 pitches. Cue the bullpen (aka, this game is about to get very ugly).

[undertow67]

So with Davis due up 2nd is it time to pinch hit for him, Ned?

 

EDIT: Of coarse not. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

Actually, I'm a little impressed by DD this year. He has basically no control out there most of the time yet he's keeping us in most of the games he's started.

[tyguy20204]

Ugh, take him out.

[Ennder]

I really don't want to see Hall play every day, he's just not very good against righties and he kills Lefties. I hope Hardy figures out whats wrong with his swing sooner than later. I think Hardy has a chance to turn into a legit .800+ OPS guy, I just don't see that out of Hall vs righties.

 

I'm also pretty sick of all the small sample size bashing in general, are you guys going to complain when Lee or Fielder can't hit the board side of a barn for a month later in the season or when Capuano can't find the strike zone and posts a 5+ ERA for a month (which he will do) or is it going to be complaining about the guys that got off to a slow start all year again like last season.

[strawbossisevil]

Stupid decision by Nedly. Sending a guy with no control out for another inning after he's hit 100 pitches. Way to go Dusty Baker Jr.

[Ayt]

He's finding his power stroke!

[undertow67]

Weeks !

 

The power bat is starting to heat up.

[wisconsinfan47]

Yeah Rickie!

 

4-2 Crew.

 

Pedro made a mistake in the first an Rickie popped it up

 

A little paybaack there.

[Southwest Brewer]

Who's calling for those Rickie bunts? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

 

Seems like the guy found his swing here the last 2 games. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[jloos19]

Rickie Weeks! Man did he kill that thing.

[strawbossisevil]

Hey! Ricky. This game has just matched P. Martinez worst of the season (as far as runs allowed goes). Most runs scored on him since opening day.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Someone please tell Schroeder that a guy walking 8 per 9 innings is not "stubborn" he has "control issues".

[dogs with bees in their mo]

Good thing we had Davis stay in to hit so he could face one more guy and not get him out.

[tyguy20204]

Nice work Ned on a terrible managerial decision.

[jloos19]

Why wouldn't you pinch hit last inning? Ugh, Yost, you confuse me sometimes.

[endaround]

Great decision there Ned!
