He has walked at least three in every start. Miller has finished six innings only twice, largely because he's averaging 17 pitches an inning.

Killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hilarious. I will probably watch that 10 times today!!!

[TURBO]

How much fun are these guys having right now? What a great time to be a Brewers fan...

[Eastside Jim]

The videos are great and so is the season so far. I know there will be a rough patch but getting out to this lead is never a bad thing. Glad I finally decided to join the site.

After the first win I thought "wow, this is great to take at least 1 here"

 

After last night, I'm just elated that we already won this series with such a limited roster.

 

If we somehow win this game... wow. That would truly be incredible. We all know how quickly the bottom can fall out, so at this point I'm just hoping for a winning road trip and hopefully we'll get some players back by the time that's open.

Eastside Jim, welcome!

 

Wow, that lineup is just so not great. It reminds me of being a kid, throwing together random lineups on a nintendo baseball game.

[fondybrewfan]

Well my "I need to go to bed" motivation isn't going to work today.

 

This lineup is better than yesterday but only marginally so. Hopefully Miller gets a little wild and we get that pitch count up.

 

I would much rather have the every day guys in there; but it was refreshing how the last night's lineup was able to work the count and make the Cards work for the outs. Of course that really has been our only hope this series. If only our star players could learn to be a little bit more patient and take some walks as well.

[brwrsfan]

Why isn't Segura playing? He PH last night....it's just getting ridiculous to play with these lineups.

[pacopete4]

Winning last night allowed us to give another day off for Braun, Segura and Ramirez. They may pinch hit late if the game dictates it but overall a great move to get them another day of rest before we are off to Cincy.

 

Come on Crew, get another one today.

[cruiserx43]

I think they were waiting for the Cincy series to try and bring Segura back for a full game.

[TURBO]

Welcome Eastside Jim! Always nice to have another body in the game threads!

 

Where is DeadSimmons? We need him for the sweep! lol

[3and2Fastball]

There is no possible way THAT lineup could win a Major League Baseball game!!!!

[Warning Track Power]

Simply amazing...

 

The video isn't real clear but I see Kintzler, Thornburg, Henderson, Smith and "Wang Chung". Who else?

 

EDIT: Is that Duke and the Interpreter?

[3and2Fastball]

 

Killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hilarious. I will probably watch that 10 times today!!!

 

At least 15 times already today. Will Smith is perhaps the most hilarious of all those goofballs in that video.

 

Obviously this team is highly stressed right now

[JackNicholson1974]

How much longer until we DL somebody?

[torts]

being able to give those guys an extra day off is huge. do you think any of them are available to PH? Is Braun the only one out?

[Dead Simmons]

Why isn't Segura playing? He PH last night....it's just getting ridiculous to play with these lineups.

You must have missed last night's game.

[Dead Simmons]

I'm going to restrain myself here Turbo.

 

But I will say this: If the Cards jump out to a 3-0 lead, I'm shutting down the PC, turning off the TV and the kitchen radio and heading for the nearest bar where the volume will be muted and I'll get only glimpses of the carnage.

[FVBrewerFan]

Dead Simmons, I don't know what you do for a living, or if you're a student, etc. But I am willing to chip in to pay for a PTO day if you promise to be here this afternoon in the IGT.

[DocLuna7]

Deadsimmons!!! Was hoping that you would show up! You are my favorite Cardinals fan bar none.

With my luck your "chip in" would be a donation in my name to The Human fund. Don't worry...I'll be here in the GDT, but as I said earlier if the Cards score 3 quick runs, I'm out!

How many do you know?
