Stockton keeps calling Ludwick "Ludwig." I agree with you. Buck and McCarver are annoying, but at least they know what they're doing and what they're talking about. -
I totally agree. Although this game wouldn't be on Extra Innings either. Still pretty frustrating though. I will never understand MLB's blackout rules. How do you blackout a "national broadcast"when there are multiple "national broadcasts" being broadcasted all over the country? Basically, if the game you want to watch is during Saturday afternoon, you're screwed. I loved it sometimes last year when the Brewers played a 1:05 ET game on Saturday. Games are blacked out if they start after 1:10pm, so the 5 minutes allowed those games to be televised.

TRADE GALLARDO

Where were you in the 1st inning?
-
I didn't think the flip to Escobar was that bad. If I remember correctly, it seemed like one of those "in between" distances where it is hard to determine in a split second which is the best way to deliver the feed. As for the the sidearm sling on the almost double play, obviously it would have been better if he would have made a nice, hard overhand throw, but maybe he felt that the quickest way to get the ball out of his hand (since he knew it was going to be close) was to whip it sidearm. Sometimes things work out, sometimes they don't.
-
To me, it looked like Hart slowed down so he wouldn't overrun the ball as it bounced off the wall, but the ball died in the corner. At any rate, no big deal either way.
-
Huh? He played that fine.
-
Don't you know it.
-
Yeah. We hit just fine, just couldn't get the big one with guys on base. Had several line shots caught, too.
-
I have a neighborhood girl coming over to watch my 1-year old for three hours this afternoon so I can get some work done. Would it look bad if I watched the game for the final hour of the three (provided I'm getting the free week of Extra Innings)? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

I agree with this. Even though he was a complete jerk his talent was so great that I didn't like having to trade him. He was a jerk who admitted he made errors on purpose. Good riddance. -
I think the difference between Dunn and Braun, though, is that Dunn is a one trick pony. He mashes homers. Ok, I guess two tricks - he draws a lot of walks, too. Despite his deficiencies in the field, Braun is a much better all-around player than Dunn. Plus, I think the perception is that Braun can still improve. He's still pretty new to LF and is a heck of an athlete. As for Fielder, going just on my memory of his play, he seemed to be pretty solid at 1B last year. No Gold Glover, but I thought he did a commendable job.

I think the obvious solution is to fire Attanasio.

Bionic knees.

Rotation Battle 2.0 -- Latest: Suppan Named 5th Starter
dlk9s replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
[sneeze while uttering a curse word starting with "B"] -
Braun's got to have options left, correct? Send him down to AAA so no tough decisions need to be made.
-
I'm not really losing any sleep over a 5th outfielder.
-
He hasn't been a mercenary at all. He played 7 seasons with California/Anaheim, then 8 with St. Louis. He then got traded by St. Louis to San Diego, released by San Diego, and signed by Chicago.
-
I hope you're right. Dukes is a nutjob. Please keep him far, far away from the Brewers' clubhouse.
-
Because he wants to be a starting pitcher on a Major League team?
-
I know he's not the greatest pitcher in the world, but I think fixing him is rather extreme.
-
After first I thought the thread title said, "MIN extends Suppan." Had there been liquid in my mouth, I would have done a spit take.
-
I really don't think it's either. I will bet many players who constantly adjust their batting gloves don't even realize they are doing it, or at least don't think about it beyond, "I need to quickly adjust my gloves." When I used to pitch, I always adjusted my hat between pitches. It took me a long time to finally notice I was doing it. Most likely just a comfort thing that turned into a habit. EDIT: I should clarify that with some guys, Nomar is one, who really seem to have a routine, probably realize what they are doing. It's just a routine to get themselves comfortable, though, like how a basketball player does the same thing before each free throw.

Sheets: "Zero bad blood" with Melvin, Brewers
dlk9s replied to OldSchoolSnapper's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
"No. 15 still rakes in a Brewers uniform. Cecil Cooper, Ben Sheets, now Jim Edmonds," said Sheets. Awesome.
