Taylor averages over 5 yards a carry against one of the best defenses in the country on the road in a night game, and he only gets 17 carries. Several times they have 3rd and 3 (give or take a yard) and go in shotgun with Groshek instead of Taylor and the jumbo package. That's on the coaching and play calling. Michigan knew that the Badgers were passing and they could pin their ears back and go after the passer. You're not going to have a lot of time to throw if the defense is pinning their ears back and blitzing corners and safeties. They were without their top 2 DEs, their top 2 CBs, and their starting safeties for most of the game. By the 2nd half they were playing a walk-on (Bondoc) at free safety due to injuries to Nelson, Dixon, and Pearson. They were playing a walk-on (Hennigsen) at DE due to injuries. The defense held as long as they could, but because they abandoned the run they were on the field too long and when the injuries piled up they ran out of gas.

2-0. See what Miley/Guerra/Peralta can do on Sunday and give the pen another day of rest. -
I kind of like Pyrzinski in the booth: "Broken bat... bat goes down a hero."

All is forgiven Kratz... all is forgiven.

Right Field Beer Pen? I DON'T KNOW HOW MILLER PARK IS ORIENTED TO THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE REGION, ALRIGHT? You were close - more like Cudahy than Racine, but close.
-
Your worst defender - Santana. Save the better defenders and multi-position guys for later.
-
In Chacin I trust.
-
This, this this - twice they've run into outs trying to avoid the double play. Trust your guys to hit a fly ball or a grounder that is not right at someone.
-
Come on Kratz, just need a fly ball to near the warning track...
-
Could you please do that more often? Thanks!

He's called them off the plate to both sides of the plate to Brewers hitters. You can get one side of the plate or the other, but not both.
-
Yep. As my friend says, you don't draw pictures on the scorecard.
-
Gio's changeup has been pretty good since coming over. He's neutralized a lot of RH hitters with it.
-
Understand the feeling, but once you get past Story you are at the bottom part of the order. Definitely don't want Chacin seeing them a third time.

Swinging at another pitch up and likely out of the zone.

Just make one mistake... one mistake...

That was odd but I’d be more interested to know why they threw Moose a fastball instead of sliders. Runner on 3b, and I believe he had already uncorked a wild pitch or two on a slider. If they throw another wild pitch... game over. That's why you try to get a runner to 3B even if there are two outs - it pretty much takes the curve/slider in the dirt pitch away.

I believe the rest of Illinois is 9%, which is the same as the vehicle purchase tax. The city of Chicago adds another 10% on top of it. Likely to "nudge" (shove?) you towards using the city's public transportation system. But if you reverse commute to the suburbs and/or where the public transportation system doesn't go, it's hard to use public transportation. If you move to Illinois and try to register a vehicle they look back three months and if you've purchased/leased in the last three months they charge you the difference between what you paid in that state and Illinois tax. Good thing my parents still live in WI. I could pay them to lease the vehicle and save almost $3000 in taxes on a $500/month vehicle.

The way Woodruff has pitched since his call-up, I think he's close to a lock for the rotation. Burnes already is. I think Peralta is probably at least in the mix for a rotation spot as well. Add in Nelson (I know, question mark), and not only do they have a deep rotation, they likely have solid trade bait as well. Could we see Anderson and Davies dangled in potential deals? Peralta could use a little more work - he can be depth in AAA next year along with Zack Brown. I've been saying Anderson and Davies as highly likely trade candidates for a while. Burnes and Woodruff were Top 100 prospects for a reason.

I don't know if there is such a thing as a reasonable hotel in NYC/Midtown. If they aren't, look at hotels in Hoboken and take the Path right to MSG/Midtown. Do know that hotel rooms will be small. Really small. Pretty much everything in Midtown is walkable with comfortable shoes. The north/south blocks are short; the east/west blocks are long. Do the Christmas Tree/ice skating at Rockefeller Center. It's pretty cool. If you get lucky and there is a light snow, it's pretty special. I think you're somewhere around my age, perhaps a bit older (late 40's?); I don't know if it is still playing, but there is a Broadway show that centers around 80's hair band rock (Rock of Ages) and it's pretty cool. It's much more of a "regular person" crowd; people in the balcony were creating "beer-a-mids" of empty Coors Light cans. Also, the one about the four singers from the 60's (Million Dollar Quartet) is really cool too. You can sometimes get cheap seats that are along the ends of the rows on the side; you can still see 90+% of the stage, but tickets are half the price if not less. Times Square - a block or two off is a BBQ restaurant called Virgil's. Get the smoked wings - you get the whole wing, they are big, and they just fall off the bone. Spicy BBQ sauce - not too hot, not too bland. I always go to Virgil's when I'm in NYC. The M&Ms store in Times Square is pretty cool - you can get any color under the sun, and color combinations for teams. The only thing about Midtown is that there aren't a lot of good restaurants there. If you happen to be nearby, I really enjoyed Tavern29.

Somebody please tell A-Rod and Ortiz that most of the guys in the Brewers bullpen are/were starters. Woodruff, Burnes, Gonzalez, Miley, Peralta, Guerra... two innings is a short outing for these guys.

Not only that, but Ottavino is probably not available tomorrow. CALL THE PARK RANGER, THE MOOSE IS LOOSE!!!

If you live in the city of Chicago, there is a 19% sales tax on vehicle leases. Yes, 19%. Doesn't matter where you lease the vehicle, it matters where you live.
