[ELCABALLO45]

Probably better hitters.

Wild Card update:

Rockies sweep the Fish. Florida played in Pittsburgh yesterday, in Colorado for two today and back to Florida for tomorrow. Have a nice trip!

[lithium75]

Weeks reaches here on catcher interference, he walked, got a hit, and got hit, what else?

[JoeH33]

Brady took a pitch! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eek.gif

[Weirdos19]

The idea is that Ned pinch hits his worst bench players first.

 

They are the 24th and 25th players on our roster. Both will be in the minors soon.

[Jaylyn]

Did she just say that the nicknames for Hardy and Weeks is frik and frak?

[Shampoo4U]

Another no name pitching against the Brewers Tuesday night--- Bet the farm on the Cardinals to shutout the Brewers. Cy Young pitching again for the other team.

Good non-answer. Such as? You are going to need at least one more PH in this game. So I guess in your odd littkle baseball world you'd rather see MacGruder and Durro in the 7th-9th instead of Branyan and Hall.

 

Once again, because it didn't work out, it was a bad move by Yost. Gimmie a break.

Did I hear right earlier when Brantley said Santos' record since the All-Star break last year is 5-20(something)? Is that right?

That sounds about right...but to me...a more puzzling stat was Sheets' record after last year's break, up to this year's break... 8-15

[MoneyballMan]

And CIN 9 CUBS 0 !!!!

*sigh* and I suppose the Brewers will win 3 of their next 16 too.

[RoseBowlMtg]

Julio you need to get the first three before Pujols!

[endaround]

Yes lets save Branyan for late in the game so LaRussa can bring in a lefty to face him!

[Shampoo4U]

Give it a rest Homer--- sigh.

[H0FFY]

naivin, remember when I joked about Ned's relatives posting here. I was joking, but you are really making think my joke may be true.

 

In all, all honestly, if the game was on the line... forget about inning or double switches or any other dang nonsense you can can come up....

 

If you bases loaded with one out and a rightie pitching against you... who do you choose. Who is YOUR best choice to score a run?

[DHarris34Phan]

Actually, naivin, I would rather have seen Eveland stay in the game. He is dealing. IMO, there isn't much of a difference between him and Durrington when it comes to hitting. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

I would rather see Durrington saved for late game baserunning situations where he probably would get caught stealing.

[PeaveyFury]

Nice to see life on Santana's fastball again.

[lithium75]

The next batter that needs a pinch hitter, we'll see Moeller...I think I'd rather have seen Lehr than either durrington or rooter

[brewers19]

Alright, time for LaRussa to slow the game to a crawl with his micro-managing.

[JoeH33]

Wow Sportsline's GameCast just said Santana got to 100 mph on his third pitch to Luna! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eek.gif

 

edit: and also 100 on the strikeout pitch!

[Weirdos19]

We have Hall and Branyan on the bench. Get the lead first. Then pinch hit the players that fill out the end of your bench.

 

Chances are that we'd have the lead if Branyan hit earlier.

 

Prediction: Branyan will pinch hit. LaRussa will bring King in. Ned will yank Branyan for Hall. He'll burn Branyan without even giving him an at bat.

[Weirdos19]

Does Sutton have Eckstein's sixth grade picture in his wallet?
