Ok, I completely accept the moral victory at this point. -
Yeah, at first I thought it was a pretty silly double steal, but when Jim Kaat explained what the thinking may have been, it made sense. Halladay was pitching strikes, it was 1-2 on Fielder, so chances are he was going to swing and hopefully make contact. The runners moving would mess up the infielders, giving Prince a better chance to sneak a grounder through. It just so happened that it was a ball Prince couldn't swing at in the perfect spot for the catcher to come up throwing.

McClendon recalled; Marcum to bereavement list
dlk9s replied to PrinceEatMeat's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
The Brewers just did. I doubt their use of the rule was entirely as it was intended. They did not do anything wrong and their use of the rule was as intended. The bereavement list is for family emergencies (ex: serious illness) or death. -
Some people need to say they are sorry to RRR
dlk9s replied to RobDeer 45's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I really think RR is keeping Gomez in the 2 hole because a) there aren't many better options right now (probably doesn't want to immediately thrust Lucroy into that spot), and b) he is still really hoping that Gomez can start using the new approach they supposedly saw in ST. It's still pretty early, so I can see why RR might not want to make a "hasty" decision. RR isn't a dummy. I think once the hitters are healthy (namely Hart and Morgan), things will start to get sorted out. He did just bat Gomez 8th this weekend, so it's not like he is oblivious to the situation. I think that for now, he still wants to give a guy with wheels like Gomez a chance, but those chances are probably diminishing quickly at this point. -
Maybe they were just really nice shirts.

Are we concerned about Axford yet?
dlk9s replied to DuWayne Steurer's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I'm a little concerned, but his issues look very correctable. Last night, he appeared to be overthrowing like crazy. His body was getting too far ahead of his arm, so his pitches kept flying up out of the strike zone. I think he just needs to relax and not worry about burning it in at 96 MPH. -
Because it wasn't the fact that the throw was bad that allowed the runner to go to second base, it was the fact that the throw was made. While it wasn't a good decision to make the throw in the first place, the decision isn't an error. The scorer likely felt (and I would agree) that, given Braun throws the ball home, the runner makes it to second regardless of the quality of the throw. Without looking at the box score, I would assume that it was a single with the runner advancing on the throw.

Sweet Fancy Moses!
-
Every swing Howard took scared me to death.
-
It wouldn't be a Brewers game if it wasn't exciting!
-
True. Good point.
-
Because he pitched a lot yesterday. Trying to save at least one bullpen arm after all the action they've gotten the last few days.
-
Good analysis by Boone. Very bad luck on the bad hop, but YuBet should've been in better position to make the play.
-
Not much choice there. I doubt they were going to PH for Kintzler.
-
I'm getting inside McGehee's head on that one: "Don't send me...don't send me...oh crap. Ok, maybe I can make it. No, I can't. I'm going to have to plow him ov...ah screw it."
-
Oh man, I thought Sedar was Gomez and was about to get all upset that Fielder was running to 3rd with the runner still there.
-
After tonight, the Phillies might actually trade Kendrick to Japan for real.
-
I think one of those catches on that stupid hill in Houston have been longer. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Oh man, I hate that stadium. It's like there was a contest to see how many gimmicks they could squeeze into one park.
-
Longest. Out. Ever.
-
I think that time he finally decided to not try to bunt for a hit. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
-
Come on, let's win! I'm supposed to be doing work right now.
-
It was Stetter's turn to bat and Nieves was the only right handed hitter left on the bench.
-
Well that was unlucky. Rats.
-
If by approaching Jenkins territory, you mean one of the best hitters in baseball over the last few years, then I guess I could agree with that. You know, sometimes pitchers do a good job and get batters to swing and miss.
-
YuBet is going to jack one here.
