2011-09-14 Rockies (Millwood) at Brewers (Marcum) - [Brewers lose, 6-2]

[NYChez]

McGehee couldn't have handled that rundown any worse. Why the heck would he throw the ball to 2nd base when the baserunner isn't even close to the base and hasn't even turned his back yet? If my pee wee team third baseman butchered it that bad I'd sit him the next inning.

[packfan79]

I havent seen alot of Green but is Mcgahee really a better defensive player then Green? That just can't be right can it...

I would say McGehee is closer to below average/bad and Green is closer to average/slightly below average.

 

That's what I thought, its to bad the announcers are trying to make excuses for why he's still out there...

This may have been mentioned in last night's thread (too lazy to look), but does Ellis remind anyone else of a right handed Craig Counsell

Mageeeheee isn't a very good fielder, that's why.

 

At some point this month, the Brewer's offense is going to wake up, right?

[Bernman23]

If the Brewers make the playoffs, then they have to align the pitching rotation so Greinke hurls at home and Marcum on the road.

Where's the FOX Trax box? I noticed it was gone during last night's broadcast and it's not there tonight.

 

I can live without it just fine, thank you, but after it being there all season (while no other FOX broadcast had it all game long) it's kind of strange not seeing it anymore.

I was just wondering the same thing. I like it for the pitch counts.

[moofnelson]

Millwood is pitching like crap and the Brewers still have only 1-hit the first time through the order.

[NYChez]

How many times this season have the Brewers hit a deep fly ball, where if it was hit a few feet left or right it would have been 10 feet over the fence?

[wisniewski]

Casey McGehee isn't even an MLB player. He isn't even playing at single A level. More like summer, legion ball.

 

It's hilariously absurd how bad he is at this point. I had some beers with Phils fans tonight and they were literally laughing out loud over how bad Casey McGehee is, and they have no idea what Brewers fans think of the guy, that was the irony.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Wow did Corey miss a meatball there.

[markedman5]

Gopher ball Marcum returns again........................

[WisconsinSportsRule]

I wish Marcum only pitched on the road.

[markedman5]

At some point or another the offense is going to have to start winning some games for us. Pitchers are going to struggle at times.

 

They do know that its ok to score 7 or 8 runs from time to time right? I mean other teams do it..............

[FidoMcCokefiend]

So, to win tonight, the Brewers have to do something they haven't done since September 3rd - score more than 4 runs.

[Schlitz001]

Where's our offense? (clap, clap, 3 fast claps) Where's our offense?

[NYChez]

What the heck was Braun swinging at, leading off the inning, taking a weak hack at a very low and away pitch and bouncing out to 2nd? That's just a lack of focus.

I don't know who it was but there is someone on the Rockies that literally made me say "that guy looks just like Craig Counsell"

I'm glad you looked that up, I was wondering how long it's been. And I believe it's been no more than 3 runs since September 5th!

[theavrock]

Glad we keep going with the guys that got us here. Why can't Green and JHJ play more?

[Bernman23]

Because Green could only muster 1 hit in 3 starts against 2 Cy Young winners and a guy with a sub 3 ERA. See, I told you minor league numbers don't translate.

I wish our hitters could do that

[markedman5]

Looks like we are going to need St Louis to cool off or this could get interesting(in a bad way).

 

Our offense better figure things out in a hurry because 2 runs a game isn't going to get it done......

[a3uge]

I give up.

[brewmann04]

this ill be a very big weekend for the Crew to gain some numbers off their lead. They better hope the Phils can do some damage versus those cards.Because if the team continues to play like this the only way we get in hopefully backing in.
