2011-7-31 Astros (Myers) at Brewers (Narveson) - [Brewers win, 5-4]

Who is Mike Adams? I have never heard of him.

Former Brewer reliever, discovered a cutter and is now a dominant reliever in SD (well, Texas now, I guess).

Ok, I didn't think it was the same Mike Adams, i didn't even know he was still playing.

[ilovebeer]

The crowd looks bored, its hard to get up when you are playing a bad team, but that will change tomorrow.

He's been one of the most dominant setup men for the past few years. I didn't think anyone on this board could not have known that since most here wish we still had him (and some wonder why we let him go in the first place).

[GamelToe]

I feel perfect today.

[pebadger]

This AB was a win since we get to Braun, right?

[bucksbeat]

Latest rumor is Wandy Rodriguez to Cleveland for 2 prospects.

[dlk9s]

Nice curve there by Myers. Haven't the Brewers normally had trouble against him?

Totally agree. Pretty much everyone here has brought that up repeatedly over the last few years. Especially when we are playing the Pads, and when our bullpen is struggling.

Braun has not looked very good this weekend.

[PrinceEatMeat]

The Astros are gonna be a complete joke the rest of this season, and likely the next few years. Let's see if they can get to 50 wins this year.

[ilovebeer]

1 hour and 10 minutes to the trade deadline.

[GamelToe]

I feel perfect today.

Not so much anymore.

[dlk9s]

Guess Narveson is no Verlander. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

[sdcheezhd]

I'd rather have Adams than Bell. It works OK for the Pads too since Bell has some fan appeal and they need some.

[pebadger]

Too bad for Verlander the smart move in a 2-0 game is to bring on the closer in the ninth.

[markedman5]

wonderful

[Raw Biz]

And there's the big inning we all know.

[trwi7]

Nice job Narveson.

[dlk9s]

I figured I'd be good in a single-day fantasy baseball contest with Narveson as my starter against the Astros. Guess not.

[owbc]

Since the Astros decided to put up a fight, we should probably get Kotsay and Counsell out of the game now.

[ilovebeer]

oh oh.

Pittsburgh has a 2-1 lead mid 5 and reds winnign 5-0

[Raw Biz]

Not sure if anyone is watching the MLB network but Carlos Guillen just had an epic HR staredown at Weaver. Weaver promptly threw at the next batter's head and was tossed.

[dlk9s]

Love that Weaver did that. Guillen's staredown was ridiculous.
