  1. I want to preface this comment with the following: Sal Frelick is my favorite player on the team. I truly believe he sacrifices his body on defense. He is short in stature and I have a soft spot in my heart for the little guys. Also when he was coming up, many fans were calling for him to be called up because he was doing so well in the minors. He is also a great guy. Unfortunately, he has not lived up to expectations. Is that because he is limited due to his stature? Is it because too many people have been in his ear this year about, I dunno, hitting more homers? I'm not sure. His swing has certainly changed this year. I don't recall him swinging an going to a knee as much he has this year. That swing shows how much he is (almost literally) swinging out of his shoes. All I know is the numbers don't lie. My thought is that when Lockridge comes back, Perkins gets sent down. Lockridge will be groomed to be the next right fielder, and Frelick will be moved to a bench role. Be careful when saying, "Bring up the next great guy from the minors." As Sal (and others) have proven, minor league success doesn't always translate to major league success.
  2. Is the plan to try to get into the bullpen and have Yelich and Turang pinch it? Is it a sneaker game for them?
  3. Hate is a strong word... I have had very unfavorable interactions with Cubs fans. I do understand that a handful (or a bus-full) of Cubs fans do not represent the entire fan base... but... My interactions with Cardinals fans have been positive. Even when I was sitting next to one who transplanted to Colorado and brought his son for the Brewers / Rockies game. We have been to games, etc. in Cincinnati when the Brewers were not even playing. Of course, I had to wear Brewers gear and yell "Brewers" during "root... root... root for the BREWERS" during the 7th inning stretch. I have never seen a game in Pittsburgh, but have had interactions with Pirates fans at Am Fam -- always positive. I would like to say that I have seen Brewers fans be complete jack wagons in other parks. Maybe it takes two to tango with the Cubs fans. Then again, I'll avoid them when I can. 😉
  4. 5:15PM — Mrs. Samurai’s boss calls and asks if we want tickets for the game. Woot!!!!! Something missed in the Miz excitement: Joey O with two base hits at 105 and 108. What a great team to watch!!!!!
  5. Be happy I didn’t take my shirt off…
  6. You all know who we are going to see every night... just like at the Bucks games...
  7. There are a few sites that show the remaining Strength of Schedule (SOS). This one has the Brewers with the 8th toughest from here on in, and 24th toughest so far. https://powerrankingsguru.com/mlb/strength-of-schedule.php This site shows how many games are left against toughest and easiest opponents. https://www.tankathon.com/mlb/remaining-schedule-strength
  8. So... let's say Bauer comes in to pitch. If he gets pulled, does he get to go to the DH like Ohtani? S...T...R...I...C...T...L...Y hypothetical.
  9. Don’t ya know that the Force is real! How else could Arnold receive the GM of the year? It is a trans-sham-mockery.
  10. I think we are skipping tonight but will be there tomorrow. Gotta get the bobble! we were in row 21 last night behind the Brewers dugout. May need to make Swanky’s run…
  11. We were at the game and my son-in-law actually “saw“ it pop. If you do some searching on YouTube, you will see similar videos. He described it like his elbow, went the wrong way.
  12. I was thinking of it more like falling on the sword.
  13. Looks like there are going to be a bunch of new arms on the plane to Colorado. Too many injuries on the bump. 🙁
  14. When he swings, especially from the left side, his hands just seem to be all over the place. It seems to be worse than others on the team.
  15. You probably utilize AI agents better than everybody else 😉.
  16. Murphy must have gotten a collect call from Counsell. Those were Counsell-esk moves
  17. I was kidding because that is what we have heard for the past two years.
  18. Good for them. Wait... D1 Baseball doesn't work in Wisconsin. At least that is what has been said over and over and over from the folks in Madison. I tried to walk on in '87 and didn't earn a spot. Too bad they dropped the program shortly thereafter.
