Lets go Crew!! We need a big win today. And let's go Atlanta and San Diego!!

 

Glad to see Weeks in the lineup ... I like the lineup. (Wish they would try JHJ over Yuni. Even if Weeks couldn't go the whole game, then switch JHJ to 2B and insert Yuni)

[PrinceEatMeat]

Man this is a sweet lineup. My fear is that McGehee will go in for Weeks and Green will move to 2B. I would've loved to see Hairston at SS, and I hope he comes in for Weeks and not McGehee.

Cheering for the Braves, Falcons, Padres, and Chargers today.

 

Hopefully Weeks can get the ball rolling again. If Roenicke just replaced Betancourt with Hairston, that would be one heck of a lineup.

Unfortunately, you're spot on. From Tom H's twitter:

Ron Roenicke said plan is for Weeks to get couple of ABs, then put McGehee in at 3B and move Green over to 2B.

[Schlitz001]

I feel like they haven't worn the white jerseys very often lately. They look good. Slump buster good.

[razzzorsharp]

Playing with 26 outs today boys.

[owbc]

I'm not upset with Morgan bunting, he was going for a base hit.

[Oldcity]

I am so tired of this manager making poor decision after poor decision. Enough with the freaking sac bunts in the first inning already.

[afeter]

and just 2 outs this inning. yeah first inning bunts

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Playing with [at most] 26 outs today boys.

I expect at least one more sacrifice being called by RRR today.

[Oldcity]

Oh ok... I didn't see it. Still, swing away Morgan. You're a good hitter.

[owbc]

Also, now that Weeks is back, the Phillies have to be careful walking Prince with 2 outs.

 

Edit: indeed, they now pitch to him. Yesterday they would have walked him here.

count on it. RR bunts the pitcher in just about every situation with a runner on base

[jwill535]

And as it has been for the last couple weeks, it doesnt matter who is up, they will do nothing.

[owbc]

Wow, it is nice to have Rickie back.

[Funketown]

"Betancourt can really hit" - TBS announcer.

[liveforoctober]

Rickie I missed you. Get well soon and never leave the 5 spot.

[owbc]

0-4, 1 RBI with RISP today.

[owbc]

That one should get Yuni another week of playing time http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[owbc]

Make that 0-6 with RISP. Can anyone get a big hit?

[Funketown]

STL up 5-0 now. If the Crew can't hold onto this one, I think we officially have a division race again.

[bucks2281]

I agree. The Brewers have to win this game.

[brewmann04]

well for you guys interested cards are on their way to sweeping the braves and making that 6 straight.

[Oldcity]

Yo dealing today.
