9/20/05 Cubs (Williams) V.S. Brewers (Davis) 6:35 CDT

[princeginterhallhelms04]

Rivals unite again in Miller Park as your Milwaukee Brewers come home to the Keg to take on the Cubs. The Brewers send left hander Doug Davis to mound with a record of 10-10 with a 3.95 ERA in 2005. His counterpart on the hill will be Jerome Williams. Williams has a record of 5-8 and a 4.30 ERA in 2005. His numbers aganst the Brewers are even higher with a 1-1 record and a even 6.00 ERA this year.

Hopefully the bats will wake up in this series and the Brewers can again start on there march to .500.

 

Pitching Matchup

CHC: RHP Jerome Williams

MIL: LHP Doug Davis

 

TV/RADIO

The Brewers will once again be on FSN North. If you would rather listen to the brewers tune in to the crew on the milwaukee brewers radio network.

 

Looking Ahead

Looking ahead the road to .500 does not get any easier as the brewers welcome in the cardinals. Good news is that the Cards have won the division and will most likely be sitting some of there starters. But it will still be a tough matchup with there pitching.

? Wednesday: vs. Cubs, 6:35 p.m. CT

? Thursday: vs. Cubs, 1:05 p.m. CT

? Friday: vs. Cardinals, 7:05 p.m. CT

Its a game day.

Its the Chicago Cubs tonight.

Its a great day to be alive.

Considering the Brewers scored 2 runs total in their last 3 games and Williams ERA in his last 3 starts is under 1.00, I fully expect Milwaukee to be no-hit tonight. Of course, they will probably win 18-2, because they are so easy to predict.

[endaround]

The real question is how many games until Dusty ruins Williams' arm?

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I am also really excited for this game. Hopefully Davis can hold down the Cubs and we can score some runs and start this series off well!

[princeginterhallhelms04]

The real question is how many games until Dusty ruins Williams' arm?

That is a great question which brings up another, how long do the cubs keep Dusty as there manager? He really has done nothing for them and in my eyes actually cost them a couple of seasons in which they might have been in the playoffs. I know that we hate to play the what if game. But what if Dusty did not overuse wood and prior? Would they be better? I think they would? Would they compete with the Cards for the division? i think they would!

[15brewcrew]

since the brewers hopes are over for the wild card lets atleast win the season series against the cubs. we need to have a good series this week before playing the cardinals

 

 

let's score some runs for davis!!!

[berniebrewer4life]

what is our record vs the cubs? 7-4? i don't remember.

[RightFieldCoder]

We are 7-6 against the sCrubs this year. Of course, we haven't played them since June, when we were both different teams.

[brewerjamie15]

Arrr.. 'tis thee blimey Cubs we play. Swab da deck wit 'em I say. Cubs are scrawny land loverrrs. To da gallows wit 'em I sayyy.

[berniebrewer4life]

is it still talk like a pirate day?

[brewers19]

Arr, might as well.

[RightFieldCoder]

G'arr, Espn radio just said Sheets walked the plank to the 60-day DL. They said the Brewmasters paid a pretty penny for Glover's contract, hoping his sea legs work out in Milwaukee. He may be getting the call as the 5th starter, instead of that scury Ober fellow.

[BrewCrewForever]

Good Glover should be a better option for 1 or 2 more starts then Obie. When Glover was up this year he didn't pitch all that bad, and they did score a lot of runs for him at least.

[endaround]

Glover was much much worse than Obie. Obie had a few good starts. Glover had like one. His RA+ is 63. Obie is at 82. About all Glvoer has going for him are his ks.

[SeriesFinale]

land loverrrs.

 

*cough* Landlubbers.*cough*

For the first time all season, I am feeling very down on the Brewers. That sweep in Houston has left me feeling dejected. I can't believe I am having a hard time getting excited for this Cubs series. If they could have even just won one of the games in Houston, it would feel so different.

 

On a side note, yesterday felt like a horrible preview of what the offseason feels like. Nothing but football coverage on the radio. No baseball on cable. No Brewers game to look forward to. And it got dark early outside. There was nothing else going on either. Nowhere to really go.

 

I really hate this time of year. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

Oh well . . . . . GO BREWERS !!

[BrewCrewForever]

I would still take Glover right now, we got no one else, we have all seen what Obie has done since being recalled.

[BrewCrewForever]

Yes the offseason will be full of football crap. The only thing to get me through will be Brewers news here and there about FA signings and trades, oh and the new MLB 2K5 World Series Edition game that comes out Oct. 10th.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I guess Glover would not hurt. But i would bring up little ben if it was my choice? Oh well!

[BrewCrewForever]

Yeah I alos originally thought Lil Ben would be the better choice but he struggled bad this year at AAA, I would give a fresh start in spring training for him next year. No reason to bring him up this season and he gets hit around and it really hurts his confidence.

[mpepy05]

Man, bad retreads blow. Hendrickson doesnt have it this year. I'd just let eveland, lehr, jorge, sarfate(if they bring him up?). We have enough guys to get through a shaky start. We ain't playing for much now anyhow. .500, BAH.

[BrewCrewForever]

What really sucks is if we win 2 out of 3 from Houston this past weekend we are still very much in the wild card race. Now we have to go 8-5 just to get a .500 record.

[mpepy05]

Scrap-iron sure handed it to us. Figured they were going to. Too late for the big show, so we may as well see what we have for next year. No more hitting the wall at .500.

 

EDIT: Still, I'd like to see us looking down on the scrubs for the duration of this year. Bring it on Dusty.

[mpepy05]

Oh yeah. Go cleveland. Beat the over-acheivers.
