From MLB.com: The clubs announced that the Pirates will send McLouth to the Braves in exchange for right-handed pitcher Charlie Morton, left-handed pitcher Jeff Locke and outfielder Gorkys Hernandez.
-
Does this mean McCutcheon is ready for full time MLB action?
-
So...what is McLouth's contract status? Is it such that they would feel compelled to move him or are the Pirates just going for perpetual rebuilding?
-
Perfect. We can sign him and then he can go out and beat the Braves for us this weekend.

Patrick gets some local press and Brewerfan gets a plug. http://www.madison.com/tct/sports/453415 -
Yeah, it is quite hilly. Probably the reason they throw in the cart as part of the deal.
-
These are both outside of Madison, but decent courses: Deer Valley (near Barneveld, 20 minutes west of Madison) has "super-twilight", which is unlimited golf w/cart for $12 after 6:30 PM. Lake Windsor (10 minutes from Madison's east side) has unlimited walking for $10 after 6PM. I don't know if the city of Madison has twilight rates or not, but they don't list them on their website.

I'm glad this one isn't on TV, watching Parra drives me nuts.
-
While I love Seinfeld more than anything on TV, I have to wonder about the choice as well. Isn't a catchphrase considered something you would here on a recurring basis? "Yada" was basically a one show deal, it's not like they used it every week. I would just expect it to be something you'd be hearing in each episode, that's all.
-
Isn't this a noon start today rather than the 1:05 listed above?
-
Can they ship it from Jamaica to the US? I don't know policies on "international" liquor sales/shipping, but I'd have to think some merchants down there are into e-commerce.
-
Well, I guess the new rule is to not talk about what you're doing during a winning streak. Kind of like not talking to a pitcher who's throwing a no-hitter.
-
Will Bill Hall ever make adjustments?
burniebrewer replied to AJAY's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Pitchers know he's trying to pull everything, so the outside corner/in the dirt curve/slider work like a charm every time. As a RHP, I don't think I would ever throw him an actual strike if I was pitching to him--everything down and away. We are definitely going to be seeing more of Gamel. -
I'm rather superstitious when it comes to baseball, both when I played and as a Brewers fan. I'm currently working a pathetic Dave Bush-esque beard that will have to come off when my vacation is over, but I haven't shaved since the last loss. Also, I'll be on the grill again for the 8th straight night tonight--haven't done steak every day, but quite a few. Tonight it's burgers.

What's NOT bugging you? (2007 – 2013)
burniebrewer replied to splitterpfj's topic in Off-Topic Forum
Walking around inside SuperTarget on an 80+ degree day. I think the guys know what I mean.... -
I think Coffey is a fan favorite for a bunch of reasons, one of them being he looks like a bunch of us do. Plus you gotta love the sprint in from the bullpen and the pitching ain't too shabby either. He's an endorsement waiting to happen.

Brewerfan.net interviews Brooks Kieschnick
burniebrewer replied to Brian the Automator's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
What a great interview. Thanks to both Todd and Brooks for a fun read. Come on, Brooks, get registered! -
Well hawing, that whole episode yesterday played out just as I would've expected. Suspect goes into woods early in the day and shoots himself and then law enforcement spend the entire day pursuing a dead guy. The good thing is, the cops got to put their training to work in real life and no one innocent got hurt.
-
Bro sounds a lot better than "Manssiere".
-
Here's hoping the nickname "The Barista" is forgotten fast.
-
I can't believe the guy didn't make a run for it out of state. To go into hiding (allegedly) in the neighborhood you once lived in is not really a deceptive move.
-
I really wish they would have started the Conference Finals tonight. The Brewers have already won today, so they aren't on TV tonight...I'd really like to watch some hockey. Go Blackhawks!
-
Yeah, but which Brewers icon is behind Simply Lemonade? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gifTherein lies my dilemma. Love the Simply, but buy the Robinade for obvious reasons. I keep a lot of lemonade in the fridge.

If you are really into cigars, you have to get the humidor set properly. It would really suck to buy a nice quantity of cigars (which are not cheap) and have them be dried out and stale because the humidor wasn't up to par. I have a cherry tabletop humidor like this: http://blackcatcigars.com/pinnaclefreemont.jpg Not nearly as nice as some, but having the hygrometer makes it real easy to keep tabs on the conditions inside the humidor. Patrick, there are some far less complicated ways to store cigars too. Before I got my humidor, I kept my cigars in a big, airtight tupperware container and used a damp household sponge to provide the moisture. Granted, it wasn't nearly as efficient or cool looking, but it kept he cigars fresh. Besides, I was only storing a few. Once I decided to buy a larger quantity, I went the humidor route and bought a cigar sampler that came with the free humidor.

I tried some last year and thought it was decent. I haven't seen any come my way yet this year--may have to make some calls. I'd also heard that there may be Limeade this year as well. It's a tough call though, Simply Lemonade brand is ridiculously good.
