5/13/06 Mets (Gonzalez) @ Brewers (Eveland), 6:05 PM CST

[Trowekamp]

I just want to see them get to the pitcher's spot this inning so that they can't accidentally let Lehr pitch another inning...

[adambr2]

That stunk.

 

Good to get 2 runs back, but then 3 straight strikeouts don't help anything, leaving Lee stranded at 2nd with nobody out.

[Sheets4theHOF]

Alright, got a couple runs back. Can we please not give those runs right back?

[wOOgiE22]

This could be an adventure with JDLR now pitching

[adambr2]

Well, Lehr is gone, it's JDLR, heh, here goes.

[Trowekamp]

At least with DeLaRosa there is a 50/50 chance he pitches well..

[adambr2]

Normally JDLR will follow up a horrible relief stint with a pretty decent one and alternate back. It's his way of making sure the coaching staff maintains at least a little faith in him.

 

Unfortunately, he pitched pretty well last time he pitched.

[Trowekamp]

I think that the key to De La Rosa.. is easy if your Ned.. when he has a good outing.. then the next time you feel like using him absolutely stop yourself.. if Ned does that DLR might challenge Herhiser's record.

[Brewtacular]

not bad.

but who has the 8th?

[adambr2]

De La Rosa with a quick, effective, inning...heart of the Mets order couldn't touch him. What's going on?

[Trowekamp]

Current ERA of the three pitchers the Brewers have used:

9.53

6.94

7.94

 

It is amazing they are only down 2.

[wOOgiE22]

3 straight innings that JDLR has pitched awesome! This is why they are keeping him around.

[bullox]

Its called changing your proxy setting on your computer and then you have a ballgame.

 

Maybe it has something to do with the fact I'm running linux, but I am not running through a proxy right now and it works fine. Check the screengrab in my last post.

[Brewtacular]

powell said the crew traded enrique cruz to texas for some pitcher named Shause? Shauch? Shouse?

 

anyone know of him?

[Trowekamp]

isn't Gross due?

[jloos19]

He was a left handed specialist on Texas. He'll be a specialist lefty in our bullpen.

Lefty specialist. Check the major league forum.

[jloos19]

These last 5 at-bats have been despicable.

[adambr2]

I am thinking that stranding Lee at 2nd last inning is going to come back to hurt us and we lose 6-5...http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

Hope I am wrong....!

[Trowekamp]

So has Cirillo replaced Gross as the top PH off the bench?

[Trowekamp]

I think by the end of the Twins series Rickie is hitting .300...

[jloos19]

Off the bat, I definitely thought that was a basehit. Darn it, we need to get some runs in the 8th.

[adambr2]

I love that Rickie can turn a single into a double, so to speak, with his speed. He's almost automatic stealing 2nd.

 

Too bad we couldn't drive him in.

 

This is going to be one tough loss to take if we don't come back. Meat of the order coming up next inning, have to get it done then.

[undertow67]

Why DeMaria ?

 

EDIT: Wonderful, 2-run homer for Valentin. Demaria is certainly the answer as always. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

[Sheets4theHOF]

In very few outfields in the major leagues is that a hit. Man the brew needs a CFer with atleast decent speed.
