2012-06-25 Brewers (Gallardo) at Reds (Latos), 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 3-1]

[pacopete4]

Do not bunt Aoki

 

You should get into coaching.

[Funketown]

I've been impressed with Aoki's power this year. With the early scouting reports I thought he would be a 2-3 HR per year guy. Looks more like a guy who could crack 8-10 with lots of doubles.

[pebadger]

Out-there prediction:

 

Braun will get a hit, put Brewers in the lead.

Rolen will make contact, Reds take the win.

[sauveb]

Tim Timmons is just guessing behind the plate. Strike 3 to Hart was on the line of the left hand batters box.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Rolen has the look of a Brewers shortstop.

[GormanHarvey]

Loe looks like he's throwing bp out there lately. Everything is belt high

[pacopete4]

I wanna be positive but I feel like this will be another tough loss for the crew and another signal to start working deals to get the most for the guys we have.

 

Wouldn't it be great to trade Greinke and then sign him in the offseason again?

[GormanHarvey]

Braun just got owned there

[GormanHarvey]

That might be the weakest swing I've ever seen from Votto

[GormanHarvey]

And Parra continues to be a complete enigma

[hawing]

Scott Rolen desperately needs new at-bat music.

[ELCABALLO45]

Scott Rolen desperately needs new at-bat music.

 

BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD!!

[markedman5]

Good job by Manny to attempt to back up home with a runner at 3rd......

 

Hart just continues to amaze at first......

[pacopete4]

3-1 count, down 2. How bout take the pitch and try to get men in base.

[Funketown]

It's getting closer and closer to time to sell sell sell.

[pacopete4]

If I managed against the Brewers and I had a pitcher throw Weeks anything but sliders/cutters, I'd take him out. Not being able to adjust to one pitch will define Weeks average career.

[brewmann04]

if the Brewers get swept have to believe even the hardcore fans have to realize we be sellers.

But i agree need to get izturs out of the lineup on a permeant basis.Also getting Tired of Weeks striking out on a constant basis.

[markedman5]

Izturas of Ransom...what's the difference?

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Izturas of Ransom...what's the difference?

They aggravate different people...other than that...

[brewmann04]

yes whatever guy starts in an automatic out

[FVBrewerFan]

One is a gritty never-has-been, one is a gritty never-will be. They're both better SS than Bettancourt, and neither can hit as well as him. Thanks for playing name that crappy Brewer SS, please play again.

[brewmann04]

what bad is that there no help in sight at the SS back.hopefully the Brewers will try to resign AG.

Don't worry a SS prospect will be on the way in the Greinke trade.

[brewmann04]

Well i hope They make one Final offer to Greinke before the All star game and then if no deal you have to put him and Wolf and krod on the blocks.

No way Greinke re-signs during the season. He'll hit free agency, because he'd be stupid not to. And when that happens, the price will likely sky-rocket, and then he's gone. And since we don't want to keep Marcum, trade him too. Also K-Rod and Kottaras. No one will want Wolf, but if they do he can go. Keep everyone else, unless someone actually wants some of our bad relievers or bench players. Just gotta get something for impending free agents we either can't keep, or don't want to keep. But of course, it makes sense to wait a few more weeks to see where we're at. Things aren't looking good right now though.
