  1. No all-grain till at least the fall for me. Not sure if I will switch to all-grain. I am pretty happy with just extract so far. Our rotation consists of a cream stout, dunkel weisse, Amarillo American wheat(not as good as Gumballhead but we are trying), and a Belgian Dubbel. Every third beer is experimental. Just brewed a Belgian Specialty ale/Saison today. I was going to do a Belgian IPA but decided I wanted something less bitter more malty/sweet so I cut back the first hop addition. 1214 yeast and Sorchi Ace hops with Crystal 10L and Special B for steeping grains. Probably not a good combination but I will get beer. I have been doing something like hop bursting with just very small hop additions at the beginning for bitterness but most as late additions for flavor and aroma. I didn't bother with temp control so we are done brewing after a couple weeks. I don't want to ferment in July and August. The only thing I am thinking about buying at this point is a bigger boil pot. We are making beer for about $9 a six pack figuring in everything and $6 with just ingredients. I have about 3-4 lbs of hops in the freezer so my next few batches only need extract and yeast. We are saving a little money over craft beer in the store but unfortunately I think we are drinking more than we used to so we are coming out behind.
  2. If you are going to use one hitting stat, wOBA is probably one of the best. It is a little better than OPS and miles better than BA.
  3. The Gomez negativity is mostly relegated to his position in the order. and baseball is dead to me tonight.
  4. Yes, he will be below league avg - but the point is he is extremely low right now, even for Yuni. Considering he put's a lot of balls in play and has a low k rate, a .25-.40 pt jump in that area could be a really big difference. I expect a better BABIP going forward but he would still be a pretty pathetic hitter even with a .025-.040 jump. Wait you said .25-.40 jump? That would be MVP worthy.
  5. Betancourt has a career .283 BABIP and .289, .256, .267 the three previous years. He makes bad contact and has for a few years now.
  6. It would probably cost more to sign Branyan than to keep Kotsay. Maybe.
  7. Stringing together as many non-outs as possible is the best way to score runs. Having a black hole bottom of the lineup sucks but not as much as having a crappy hitter make rally killing outs in front of your best hitters. and yeah the PA thing. Over a course of a season it would really anger me to see Gomez/Betancourt get more PA than Braun, Fielder, McGehee, Hart and Lucroy.(taking injuries into consideration of course)
  8. For the record, people don't hate Gomez. They hate him batting higher than #7.
  9. Well now we know what it will take for Boggs to get a pinch hit. He is at least ahead of the pitchers.
  10. I wouldn't have him bunt either. Not with the corners in.
  11. Sac bunt here wouldn't be a horrible idea. Wait Gomez, nevermind.
  12. Which that ball was. I was annoyed at BA's excitement about a play being made on a ball hit right to a fielder.
  13. That looked like a trap in real time and I only caught the play out of the corner of my eye.
  14. Since it is easier I will only list the players who swing at a smaller percentage of pitches out of the zone than Weeks this year. Kotsay Counsell Kottaras Estrada Kintzler Mitre
  15. You forgot about Braun who swings at more out of the zone pitches than Weeks does. Yeah those guys suck.
  16. Because of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Courtney Love. How about actually telling you kid you love her.
  17. Now that should be in blue. I just want a place that serves some brats on pretzilla buns with some crisp kraut. Oh and Miller Lite, can't beat that great pilsner taste. (Listening to Ueck too much). Heck no. Giant brewpub that actually makes good beer. No Pilsners.
  18. I would choose several places over Applebee's. It was nice to stop at when my GF9(now wife) used to live in Oshkosh. I would stop for supper(pickup) on my way through. The food is warn and doesn't make you puke.
  19. Oh, that's pretty cool. I will try to get the radio out and listen. I will be grilling chicken and relaxing. I am not sure I even own a radio that isn't in a car.
  20. No it shouldn't Mmm, nested quotes. Made you think of eggs didn't it?
  21. Ohhh, I like Applebee's. Good idea. Did you forget the blue font? Pretty sure all of that should be in blue.
