8/5/07 Phillies (Eaton) @ Brewers (Suppan) - 1:05pm CT

[Trowekamp]

Because he has 13 pitchers and is afraid to do anything to cost a player

Today that doesn't seem like enough http://static.yuku.com/v2//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/happy.gif

[polwonks]

That "someone" should be Linebrink. Maybe promoting him would shake up a few people who seem to be taking things for granted...

[Trowekamp]

I think it will be T-Bow for one and Parra for up to 4 afterward.. I would send Spurling to the showers now to remove temptation..

[Oldcity]

I actually think I'd prefer Spurling over Turnbow on the third straight day.

[Blazer25]

Good thing Billy Hall is still on the bench....might need him to hit against the LHP in the 15th.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

Ned Yost...call your office.

 

[splitterpfj]

What's happened to the outside corner?

[polwonks]

What is Bill smoking? Brewer fans have not seen blown multiple-run 9th inning leads? Who cares if it's true at home? It's the scoreboard, dude.

[WV Brew]

My defense of Cordero--He was obviously supposed to sit out today or they would not have used Wise. He didn't have it today. He is over 30 after all. Can't run him out time and again without rest. In any case, it is just ridiculous to leave him in for 40 pitches when he has no control. I'd rather Spurling come in and give up a grand slam than just walk the game away. Ned has much too long a collar when guys have no control out of the pen, in my opinion.

How is TBow looking so far?

[moofnelson]

That's twice now that Cordero has had a 3-run lead, two outs, nobody on base and coughed it up. Almost unbelievable.

 

Tbow looked great until he walked the pitcher with two outs. Once again, almost unbelievable.

[TheCrew07]

The Braun play wasn't an error...

[CportBadger]

They probably didn't have anyone up after they put Cordero in. He got the first two guys out, so they probably were trying to make sure nobody else threw.

[splitterpfj]

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, there's nothing left to see, this team has done everything wrong you can do over the last two weeks. K two guys, then walk Brett Myers?

[phatmatt1215]

What in the world is Turnbow doing walking the opposing pitcher????? PATHETIC!!!!!

[BadgerFan]

Did Turnbow really just walk Brett Meyers? I swear sometimes I think the bullpen has bets on the other team.

[Ennder]

Good idea walking the pitcher to face Rollins Turnbow.

[CportBadger]

Jim just said Parra's up in the pen. Can't be walking a pitcher who hasn't had an AB in forever.

[polwonks]

Ball 4 to #9.... bring up Barnwell and let him pitch...

[AJAY]

He just walked the pitcher? You gotta be kidding me.

[rluzinski]

The Braun play wasn't an error...

 

That's because he missed it so bad that the ball went under his glove without making any contact.

[Oldcity]

The Braun play wasn't an error...

Just because some guy who happened to be scoring the game thought so. That play needs to be made.

[Ennder]

The Braun play wasn't an error...

Just because some guy who happened to be scoring the game thought so. That play needs to be made.

 

At the very least it needs to be knocked down so only 1 run scores. Letting it go through clean has to be an error.

[dlk9s]

Wow. I went grocery shopping after Braun hit his triple and came back to this.

[Yaz]

This is looking like another bad Sunday afternoon. Sigh.

[Blazer25]

Is Billy Hall hurt?

 

Why is he the last PH option today?
