Bill Hall of previous years....where are you?

Gallardo was good against Arizona.

 

Ah, true. But he's been absolutely shellacked in 3 of his last four outings.

Wow. A 3-page In-Game Thread? Where, oh where have the Brewer fans gone? http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/frown.gif

The offense looks punchless tonight. Lineup feels weak without Prince.

I agree, but Dillon did his part.

Is anyone else so tired of watching Johnny Estrada loaf? For a guy who was considered to be a team leader with his outburst involving Yost, I couldn't be more disappointed in his complete lack of effort. I was at the game on Friday. Twice on double-play balls when he was standing on first, he didn't even get half the way between the bases and he turned around and started jogging back to the dugout. Are you kidding me? This is considered acceptable? I don't care if he can hit singles. His complete lack of effort is infectious - especially with younger guys watching him for guidance. He needs to go and not be back next year. Good on paper is certainly not good in practice.

I was thinking that, too. 50-something posts is a low for recent memory. (We're usually in the 200+ range.)

Of course, I didn't follow the game all that closely after the first inning myself. Why did Corey pinch-hit for Gross?

Giants brought in a lefty.

In Estrada's defense, one on of those DP grounders to first base, he had to jump-dodge backwards to avoid the ball, which slowed him down tremendously. The throw was already at 2nd base by the time he pretty much got running again.

I had thought the exact same thing until I saw the replay and saw that.

I find it truly, and pathetically amazing that, as bad as we have played, we are STILL only 1 1/2 games out of first place. Rightfully, we should probably be 5-8 (if not more) games out of first.
