Geoff Jenkins and Lyle Overbay are expected back in the lineup today after a day off yesterday. Doug Davis makes his spring training debut as he gets the starting nod.

can't wait, i am gonna be heading back to UWP during that time and hope to listen to the game.

Hopefully Doug's back to 100%, looking forward (as crazy as that sounds) to Daron and Bill's call.

[LS Brewer]

I really enjoyed Bill and Daron's call the other day. They kept it very light which is fine with me considering the fact that this is ST and the games don't matter much.

 

It was nice hearing Uke and Jim yesterday as well. Other than the cold rain and college basketball, it's begining to feel like summer around here.

 

It seems as if the Brewers have put up quite a few runs in their first four games. I know, small sample, but encouraging nonetheless esp. considering that traditionally, pitchers have a slight advantage over hitters at the beginning of ST. (I am willing to exploit any positive to fuel my optimism.)

Remember a week ago when people were discussing how Carlos Lee came into camp like 3 ounces overweight or 15 milligrams or 12 ions or something like that? This is so much better.

 

This year will be the first opening day I've attended in my 21 years. I hope Spring Training continues like this and gives us fans some hope to compete at the start of the season instead of the anticipation of watching a train wreck.

I think that was just typical "Dark Prince" Haudricourt trying to stir stuff up.

Last day in Phoenix. Not going to the game today. Going to chill by the pool and get some lunch. 3 games this week for me. 3 wins and we personally witnessed about 900 feet of Carlos bombs.

 

Nices suprises...

 

Housmans delivery....Nelson Cruz's athletic ability....Fielders approach.....Jenkins timing....Turnbows heat.....Hart/Weeks/Fielder autographing my program.....Brady Clark is becoming a favorite of mine......Jeff Cirillo looks like he will make the team to me......

 

There were no real bad things ....lots of fun and I recommend the trip for everyone.

[brettac1]

If anyone is interested in watching a game on TV, the White Sox and Scotty Po will be on Comcast Sports Net on DirecTV at 2:00 as well.

i am gonna be heading back to UWP

 

Just curious if that's Parkside or Platteville. You've used it a lot and I figured it's time I found out.

[brettac1]

Anyone know the line-ups yet?

[Loopee]

I think this is the most over-dramatic rendition of the national anthem I've heard at a baseball game.

 

Let's hope Doug puts together a good outing.

[Ando Calrissian]

no doubt loopee, i'm hoping his back won't be an issue

Shue ?

Reese

[Pointer1VB]

He said Spizio the first time and Choo the second time so your guess is as good as mine.

[Pointer1VB]

Krynzel on, good start.

[Pointer1VB]

Scratch that.

BB?

[Pointer1VB]

I would have to guess Choo instead of Spizio due to Spizio playing 0 games at OF last year.

[brettac1]

Is it Brad Nelson or Nelson Cruz in LF for the Brewers?

[Loopee]

Nelson Cruz, sorry, forgot to specify.

 

A slap hit by Ichiro, who would have guessed that would happen.

[Harold Hutchison]

Doug Davis keeping Ichiro close... well, he got a fielder's choice. He ought to try that pickoff move that he used against the Cubs... it was FILTHY.
