2010-05-30 Mets (Dickey) at Brewers (Wolf), 1:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 10-4]

[Invader3K]

Agreed. Hanley Ramirez has always come across this way. Eckstein as well, for some odd reason. That said, Gomez kind of does too. Maybe it's a latin thing.

I've read that's a part of the baseball culture down there.

I really dont like Jose Reyes. Guy is way too flashy for his game

Eckstein is flashy? I've never thought that about him. He's sort of a nerd for the way he sprints to first after a walk, but I wouldn't consider that flashy, it's just sort of silly.

Wolf is just giving away free passes today.

[jjfanec]

Wow, Wolf is dodging bullets today. 7 base runners in 3 innings and he has given up just one run. He will be very lucky to get 5 innings in considering he is at 79 or 80 pitches right now

[Invader3K]

it's just sort of silly.

No, it's GRITTY.

[Buckylovesbeer]

And in the St. Louis bible of baseball, gritty is o.k. where flashy is an big no-no unless you are baseball Jesus (Pujols).

[lcbj68c]

Wolf has called for more meetings today than a White House War Room.

[endaround]

Drawn in infield with the pitcher batting.....

[lcbj68c]

Wolf won't throw a fastball to anybody, yet decides to throw one to the pitcher with two strikes? :Sigh:

[sauveb]

Let's answer their one with our two.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

How about we don't put Suppan in the game?

[ttsather]

How about we don't put Suppan in the game?

I love this idea.

[wibadgers23]

How about we don't put Suppan in the game?

Yeah, I though he was only allowed to pitch in blowouts.

Then I guess we better make it a blowout in the bottom of the 5th here.

[sauveb]

Thank you Angel.

[dlk9s]

I don't mind bringing in Suppan. I was thinking about it the other day, and they can't just let him rot on the bench day in and day out. Plus, they can't keep throwing 4 and 5 relievers (or the same 2) every time a starter can't go 6 or 7 innings. Suppan has to be used at some point when it's a close game.

[AdvantageSchneider]

Did the crowd boo Suppan or were they chanting Souuuup? I couldn't tell.

[owbc]

I'll sacrifice this game if I never have to see Suppan in a Brewers uniform again.

[Tailgat0r76]

I hate intentional walks to load the bases for pitcher like Suppan...

[trwi7]

Intentionally walking Reyes to get to Castillo? Oof.

[sauveb]

I don't think there was much choice here. Estrada and Coffey probably aren't available today and Wolf only went 5. Someone has to throw the 6th and who else is there?

[lcbj68c]

Anybody surprised by this outcome?

[trwi7]

Ball 2 was closer to a strike than strike 2. Though both were balls.

 

Suppan and Macha fail.

 

I don't think they're saying "Soup." http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[thablingster]

Nothing brings out the boo birds at MP this year like Suppan. He is getting dink and dunked to death in this inning.

Braddock could go a couple innings, Villanueva and then Axford.
