  1. I'm east coast. At least I'm normally up until 2:00am.
  2. Hmm...that's surprising. Sometimes Braun and Thames make outs and sometimes they get base hits and jack dingers.
  3. Lets be real here, it is Counsell's fault when this happens. But Stearns is just making his job harder by giving him players that don't mash monster dongs every other AB.
  4. [sarcasm]Muncy, what a bum. How disappointing.[/sarcasm]
  5. I'm not disappointed in Thames. He murdered the first pitch - it just happened to be foul. The pop-up pitch was a great pitch. Whenever a Brewers player doesn't hit the ball really hard, safe or out, it's not necessarily because he screwed up. The pitcher has a job to do, too, and sometimes they do it well.
  6. I'll admit, I squirted a little pee when Thames hit that first pitch.
  7. They just need to stop clogging up those bases! Man, Yelich and Cain...those base cloggers.
  8. This is one of the rare times when the fact that the Brewers are hitting the ball REALLY hard actually hurts. Can't get the runners home from second base.
  9. Basically echoing the above statement, I would imagine that, given the quality of the festivals, that a Mexican one would be near the top. The food has got to be amazing. I've never been, though.
  10. Let's complain more about how good or bad our backup catcher is.
  11. I have no real opinion on the trade (I trust in Stearns' judgment; it may work, it may not), but did anyone think two years ago that we would have dealt Broxton and Phillips in the same year? EDIT: OOPS! I meant Brinson. Those B-names, man, amirite?
  12. 502 is playing the internet message board game perfectly. If Shaw is bad at second base, he triumphantly posts, "SEE! TOLD YOU SO!" If Shaw is fine, 502 posts, "Phew, never so happy to be wrong! Go Brewers!"
  13. On the bright side, if he gets out of this, he cleared McCutchen and Posey. EDIT: This post was written before the site went down.
  14. I just saw the highlight - he would've had no chance to get Perez and was correct to throw to first.
  15. Man, if he is traded, I certainly have mixed feelings. I REALLY like him - he seems like a great kid, his defense is great, and I just feel like if he can get something to click with his hitting, he could be a very good major leaguer. But his hitting at the big league level is just terrible and he's shown little signs of anything actually clicking (though to be fair, he hasn't had consistent AB's). Probably "hello" hugs since he just got back.

  17. Ok, I'm convinced. We should trade for Justin Verlander.
  18. Man, I'm so used to our pitchers having rough first innings lately that I saw the first batter of the game was on second base and thought, "Here we go again."
  19. Perhaps he and another GM haven't come to an agreement on the details of a trade.
  20. Oh, to answer part of the original question, Stearns gets a REALLY long rope. He's done a fantastic job so far and that is not even remotely debatable. The franchise is getting stronger and stronger. Counsell's leash may be a bit shorter, but he has done a commendable job and it seems to me that the players like him very much.
  21. Having arguably the best QB in the history of football covers up a lot problems.
  22. Rats. I would've loved to get Molitor back here in the leadoff spot. Guess he had a no-trade clause.
