2010-05-25 Astros (Paulino) at Brewers (Wolf), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-1]

Lucroy looks like Knox Overstreet from Dead Poets Society.

[sheethead]

Wolf seems like he drank his suck juice again tonight. Can any Brewer pitcher throw strikes? This is freaking ridiculous. Its not Lucroy's fault Randy, you've been sucking for some time now.

[stalton]

Could it just be that Lucroy has the jitters ala Narvy giving up 3 runs before recording an out

[PeaveyFury]

How can anyone dislike a GM that can get the phrase 'and that' into a short sentence multiple times?

[craigharmann]

How can anyone dislike a 1st baseman that can get the phrase "you know" into an answer to a yes or no question multiple times?

[stalton]

7 walks for Prince in the last 2+ games. If he's expanded his strike zone as some people have said, he's either improving or just getting pitched to by Vaughn

 

Edit: 8 walks

[young guns]

Man, sucks that we were ready to draft Wade Davis in '04 in the third round, only to have Tampa take him 1 pick earlier.

[sheethead]

I didn't realize Texas put Cruz on waivers, and could have been had by any team for $20K.

[RightFieldCoder]

Lucky we got Braun instead of Tulo.

Yes. The "fire Melvin because he traded Cruz" talk needs to stop. There are lots of other reasons to want Melvin canned.

It would have been nice if Hunter Pence would have signed with us.

[trwi7]

It would have been nice if Hunter Pence would have signed with us.

He really annoys me. Probably because he looks like a giraffe that's taking its first steps when he runs.

 

[young guns]

Nice DP by McGehee and Esco. Though the Astros do have a point that it went off of his foot.

[trwi7]

How many bunt hits does Gomez have this year? Like two? Either way, it's not a very good percentage, so stop doing it all the time.

[valpocrewsader]

What's Gomez' ratio of bunt attempts to singles? It can't be very good.

[GameMisconduct]

How come CarGo is still in the 2 hole? I know he has a lot of speed, but isn't number 2 in the line up supposed to be able to move the lead-off guy over at the very least?

[stalton]

I think he's contractual obligated to try for a bunt hit every game. I'd like to see if the corners are creeping in to bunt and slash

[TheCrew07]

This has to be some sort of record for most shake offs by a starting pitcher in a single game.

[young guns]

With Villy getting up here, I guess that means that he is officially out of the closers role.

[GameMisconduct]

I am pleasantly surprised. Just over 100 pitches and Wolfie gets through 7 innings.

[crewcrazy]

Nice outing for the Wolfman, assuming he's done. ERA is down to 4.52. I get the feeling this series is going to do wonders for the Brewers' team ERA.

[dlk9s]

Wolf seems like he drank his suck juice again tonight.

I forgive you.

[Funketown]

I don't believe...what I just saw!

 

Nice outing by Wolfie so far. Not dominant, but he got the job done and kept them off the board. Good to see.

[GameMisconduct]

There are a couple Badger Mutual Insurance runs! Nice to see Rickie have some pop

[rickmanningfan]

I like what Carlos is thinking.
