    I actually think this would be ok.

    So let me get this straight. You wanted a Brewer (and one who, from all reports, is a really nice guy) to lose the ability to do what he loves during a potential championship run? Nice. That's nice.By this logic, everyone who hopes for Casey McGehee to get benched should also be ashamed of him/herself. Seems pretty preachy to me. I simply read his comments as hoping for a way to get Yuni B out of the lineup/off the field. No, because McGehee would still have the ability to play. And he would likely play as a pinch hitter or spot starter.

    Are you serious??? No one wanted him to die, just be out for the season. Clearly this would make the team better, cheering for your favorite team to get better is fine. He is getting paid $6 MM this year, he will still earn it with a cast on his hand. This isn't little league So let me get this straight.

    CC was put in as a pinch runner.

    I'd like to congratulate the St. Louis Cardinals on cutting the division deficit to single digits.

    Maybe Estrada is in because a) he could use the work and b) if it goes extras, we don't have to burn another pitcher for a couple innings.

    Time for a patented Braunie liner off the right field wall.
  8. dlk9s
    No, because he only has one left. Bring him in and the guy would either have to face Braun if Morgan (or Hart) got on, or not be in to face Prince.

    God bless Yuni, pulling a pitch on the outer half for a nice little groundout.
  10. dlk9s
    Wow - that last strike to Prince had some nice rise on it. Tough AB there.

    Totally. The Cards have no chance tonight.

    Well, this is a bit of a jam.

    I'm sad that my go-to site for MLB streams of questionable legality is no longer operational. Not a big fan of having to use my imagination.

    I don't think there's necessarily any issue with Grienke, but in my opinion, might as well try to put him in the most comfortable situation possible, just to avoid any possibility, however remote, that he problems arise. I figure, assuming we end up with home field in the NLDS, an easy way to set the rotation would be Grienke and Yo at home in some order, Marcum and Wolf on the road, and then either Grienke or Yo for Game 5 at home. That way, Grienke gets to pitch at home, Yo gets to pitch at home (where I think he does better - I'm too lazy to check right now), Marcum and Wolf generally seem fine on the road, and then either the Game 2 pitcher can go on normal rest in Game 5, or the Game 1 pitcher can go on an extra day rest. Either way, your two best pitchers are available for that game.
  16. dlk9s
    Have Wolf, Yo, Zack, and Marcum each pitch 2 innings a game with Ax closing when necessary.
  17. dlk9s
    We should hang out.
  18. dlk9s
    We don't all agree on this?

    This. I couldn't care less about Hairston's power. We don't need it. And it's not like he's weak - he can line balls into the outfield and hit the gaps just fine. He's not some amazing hitter or anything, but he's perfectly competent at the plate, which is more than we can say for Yuni.
  21. dlk9s
    Ok.
  22. dlk9s
    I was thinking this same thing, mainly the part about looking at who are the best GB pitchers in case we get to play at Philly.

    I've kept a cool head all season about Yuni, but after having watched the last few games, I've officially made up my mind that he HAS to be replaced. Not that I ever thought he was good, but like many people, I figured that when his bat improved for a while that I could suffer him being in the lineup. His latest slump is not bad luck. The low BABIP is because he has a lazy, one-handed, looping swing and never tries to take the ball the other way. Trying to pull everything with that horrible swing results in pop-ups and groundouts up the wazoo with every pitch that isn't down the middle or on the inner half. There is no way in hell I'd ever throw him a pitch that wasn't on the outside corner, particularly low. He either pops those to right or grounds them to the left side. In the meantime, Hairston generally puts together good AB's. He has a good swing and can hit to all fields. He doesn't usually swing at crap. As long as he's even slightly below replacement level at SS, he'd be a gigantic improvement over Yuni once Weeks is back. It simply makes no sense to not make that change. Significantly better bat and, at worst, same defensive ability. I can live with McGehee in the lineup. I can't deal with Yuni at this point.

    Now that's I've had a night to sleep on it, I think it is highly probable that Prince saved up to 15 percent on his car insurance by switching to Geico.

    I just can't imagine that the songs were chosen to send a message to the front office or to brag that he's going to get paid handsomely in the offseason. It would be just so bizarrely inappropriate and out of character. It would be odd to use those to hint that a new deal is almost signed, as well, because that, too, is bragging a bit, but if that's the case, have some fun.
