Piss off Counsell.

 

[Devinep]

Counsell must be relieved there's a righty pitching to get his beloved in the lineup

[pacopete4]

Yeah screw Counsell. How dare he continue to play Broxton, Niewenhuis and Santana at various times allowing them to be in positions to succeed at the MLB level. Fire him now.

[LouisEly]

Nothing is more fun than beating the Cardinals, so I'm totally OK with whomever gives the Brewers the best chance to win. Same with the Cubs.

[FVBrewerFan]

Why hasn't Elmore been getting any starts, I thought they were tanking?

[1992casey]

Thanks for posting the lineup trwi7. It's always helpful when a member posts that information before a moderator can get around to doing it.

[FVBrewerFan]

Man, Scooter is always juuuust good enough to hang around on the roster.

[jerichoholicninja]

So Gaedel played for the Browns, first of all, and was considered a disgrace to the game (anti-Cardinal way) so the Cardinals honor him?

[jerichoholicninja]

I like when Rock gets mad at things because they generally are worth getting upset about. However, the way he constantly complains about official scoring is rather annoying.

So can you use salty language if you are posting the lineup before a moderator, or is the p word acceptable?

[trwi7]

The weird thing is that that was an error or at least a play that any half way decent shortstop would be able to make. Why the Cardinals are playing Gyorko there, I have no idea.

[1992casey]

Piss is generally acceptable (note that it isn't filtered). Also note that there are ways that many words, cusses or not, can become unacceptable based on how they're used. Piss would be among them.

[trwi7]

I should post a link to Jim Jefferies' stand up special "Freedumb." That would be filtered.

[Devinep]

Yeah screw Counsell. How dare he continue to play Broxton, Niewenhuis and Santana at various times allowing them to be in positions to succeed at the MLB level. Fire him now.

 

Can you give 1 reason why Brixton and Santana should not both get the vast majority of starts with Kirk only spot starting?
