  1. Brewers should play the not played game under protest.
  2. I do think that calling the roster 'Counsell's castoffs' is kind of a disservice to the job that Stearns has done finding and acquiring talent . I saw the same segment at a different time (Eric Byrnes wasn't in studio for this one - it was Harold Reynolds and someone else) and the "Counsell's Castoffs" title was actually complementing Stearns. They were talking about how great of a job Stearns has done acquiring overlooked players. The "Counsell" part was just because he's the manager. They were definitely praising Stearns specifically, though. They did praise Counsell for letting the young kids play. It was a nice segment.
  3. I have a couple questions about this post: 1) Do you normally expect a warning when a technical problem occurs? 2) You say MLB "used to be" the best, so is it now not the best simply because of one technical problem?
  4. My kid has a little league game in a little while and I'm not sure if I'll see a worse play than that.
  5. That was a hell of an ugly inning resulting in us taking the lead.
  6. I have no idea if he's right, but Kerry Wood opined that Espino could be challenging hitters knowing that it will be hard to get a ball out of the yard. Who knows, really.
  7. As I write this, we are 18-16, .5 games back of Cincy (18-15), and 1.5 games behind St. Louis (19-14). Expected W/L, though, says we should in first place by .5 games!
  8. Hey guys, what do you think of Eric Thames? Overpaid, perhaps?

  10. Well, you can't win every game 11-0. It's nice to have a game where you score double-digit runs to cover for a down game by the pitching staff.
  11. HEY GUYS I'M WATCHING THE GAME AND I'M ANNOYED BY A PLAYER SO I STARTED ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT HIM
  12. Has Aaron Judge been tested yet? He's having a pretty hot April, too.
  13. No homer today. DFA Thames.
  14. Just stop already.
  15. Thames didn't "come out of nowhere." He mashed so hard in Korea for the past three years that they nicknamed him "God." Obviously, the pitching in Korea isn't on par with MLB, but it's not like Thames was hitting like dog butt up until the moment he put on a Brewers uniform. Clearly there's a non-zero chance of PEDs, but I would think the Occam's Razor answer is that he figured out how to hit. Taking a very quick glance at some of his advanced stats, it looks like his plate discipline has improved a lot. Also, that people are going nuts with PED suspicion seems rather silly based on a 1-2 week hot streak.
  16. What the what...I'm literally watching a commercial for HGH right now. It's called Sero Vital and they are pitching it to middle-aged women whose bodies' production of HGH have naturally plummeted with age. Weird.
  17. Just looked up the game on baseball reference. The attendance really was under 30,000. I find that very hard to believe. Also, we were 5% to win going into the bottom of the 9th and 11% to win when Rob Deer stepped to the plate.
  18. I was 11. As my household was chock full of Jews, we had nothing to do on Easter Sunday, so my dad asked us if we wanted to go to the game (YES, OF COURSE, DUMB QUESTION). We were down the right field line. Before the ninth inning, thinking we were going to lose, I asked my dad if we could go home. He said AND I QUOTE, "If we leave and the Brewers win, I am going to lock you in the bathroom the rest of the day." We stayed, the rest is history and someone accidentally threw beer on us in his excitement. Nobody cared.
  19. I think it's just that he's not really that good of a baseball player. He just happens to be fast as hell.
