Possibly a bit premature seeing as the move isn't official, but it seems pretty accepted to this point and it gives us something to look forward to for once!

 

Also, good fortune to me for having picked this game on my ticket package.

[Funketown]

It has to be pretty rare to see a non-doubleheader game at this point in the season where both pitchers are making their first career start, right?

 

I always thought Thornburg was a 1st round or Comp pick. Cool to see a 3rd round pick make it to the big leagues in just a couple of seasons.

NICE! Hope you see a good performance, and a peek into our future!!!

[Mike2k33]

Certainly makes this game much more exciting than it would have been had Vargas gotten the call.

 

Let's go T-Burg!

Okay line for Braun against Chavez:

It's official: RHP prospect Tyler Thornburg will start for the #Brewers against the Blue Jays tonight: http://t.co/uEhtkWYi -- Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy)

[pacopete4]

I want him lights out so we can't send him down. Fiers & Thornburg in the rotation from here on out!

[owbc]

Both pitchers will probably leave the game in the 7th with the score tied 0-0.

[RightFieldCoder]

Good day to have free upgrades to Field Box! I am so pumped for this game.

[RobDeer 45]

Pretty cool stuff here. Good luck kid.

[phnxcrew]

very excited for this one... hopefully he saves his throwing at people routine for the cardinals

[TooLiveBrew]

Yeah, this game is super-exciting. I can only imagine how much adrenaline is pumping through Tyler's veins right now.

 

Go get 'em, TT!

[yfinn6]

Dangit, I can't get the game on MLBtv. For those of you in this thread, detailed updates would be appreciated.

[jjkoestler]

I'm supposed to have a date tonight. I'm seriously thinking about canceling. Go get em TT.

Take your date to a sports bar, dating woah solvdd! That, or just DVR it. Or spring for a "surprise" Brewers game with your date! Shows that you are "spontaneous" and dating woah solvdd!

 

This has the makings of a wild game. I am interested to see how Thornburg handles this opportunity.

[Eye Black]

I wouldn't mind seeing him establish the plate early against Lawrie.

[hawing]

This game was in one of our 20-packs, but we traded them for tomorrow's game so we could bring the younger nephew (6) and his dad. So good luck, Tyler.

[hawing]

Hey! Tyler held the Blue Jays scoreless longer than Randy Wolf did. Sign that boy up!

[topper09er]

Now go after Bautista, nice to face him with the bases empty.

 

Change ops have not gotten any swings and misses yet but the movement is there so thats great

[Raw Biz]

Gomez just can't hit RHP. I'm not sure why Aoki can't play CF and Hart RF with Green at 1B against RHP. I'd rather have that than Gomez flailing away out there.

[endaround]

Morgan did his job last night so he doesn't get to play today right RR?

[Yeti73]

14 games....man, he's good.

[topper09er]

Only player on the roster who doesnt get a hit there

[TURBO]

Sadly, that is the way the ball rolls with our mgr.

 

Gomez should never, EVER see the 2 hole again, it sickens me.
