  1. Does that mean if we win, we're golden? Is that how it works?No. If we win tonight, then tomorrow is doomsday with a loss. Rinse, repeat.
  2. His body is all messed up from being off the fertility drugs.
  3. Besides, it's all moot because Seattle isn't going to be a seller unless they fall off a cliff soon.
  4. Dave Winfield also picked Trevor as his snub.
  5. ESPN just reported that Prince is in the HR Derby, along with Pujols, Adrian Gonzalez, and Ryan Howard on the NL side. Pretty sick team.
  6. We all know the "Braun call-out" means the Brewers are about to win something like 20 of the next 25 games. And to be a little fair, he did say they haven't been hitting well lately, either (although they did get runners on in the Cubs series, just didn't score them).
  7. For those saying the offense has been disappointing this season, keep in mind the Brewers are 4th in the NL in runs scored, only 6 runs behind the Dodgers (I believe this was going into today). That's pretty solid. And although they only scored 2 today, they still had 11 hits and only 3 fewer base runners than the Cubs. Yeah, it sucks that they couldn't get the big hit to plate more runners, but in my opinion, the fact that they got runners on base is good. Sometimes you just can't get them home. For me, when I watch Burns, he seems to have pretty good stuff. Unfortunately, he was just missing the corners and then grooved a few down the middle that got crushed (Fuku, Lee, Fox). When it completely fell apart for him, he was also unfortunate to make a few good pitches only to have the hitters dump them weakly for hits. He obviously did not pitch well today, but I think he can be a serviceable 5th starter if we need him to be.
  8. I'll be honest, if we win a World Series within the next few years and it's without Hardy, Fielder, Braun, or Weeks, and to a lesser extent Hart, it will be slightly bittersweet to me. Still mostly sweet (I'm sure I'll cry I'll be so happy), but I want it to be with the "core."
  9. That's weird. To me, Braun is ok in LF and has actually made a few great plays this year, while Soriano is a disaster out there.
  10. The way Looper has been getting pounded, that was bound to happen at some point.
  11. Wasn't there a debate on BF.net about whether or not Braun was better than Soriano in LF? I seem to remember it and I seem to remember my mind being boggled.
  12. There's a small part of me that's nervous about how hard they are hitting Looper, even though they haven't scored any runs.
  13. Hardy was right on Harden that AB. When I saw him drill that one foul, I just had a feeling.
  14. The good thing is that now Hart will hit a two-run homer to make up for the zero-run error.
  15. I've watched most of the games and here's what I've seen when I've watched JJ: a guy who typically takes good approaches at the plate and hits the ball hard. That's not to say that he doesn't have bad AB's and bad games. Obviously, he does, as does everybody. But I don't watch him and feel like he'll just flail at pitches or bounce softly to second every time. I actually usually expect him to hit the ball hard, but right at someone. As somebody posted earlier, some new mathematical analysis has shown that JJ was the second unluckiest hitter in the league in April and I wouldn't be surprised if he has been similarly unlikely much of the rest of the season.
  16. Oh yeah, I missed that. Rats. I wanted something else to be ticked off about.
  17. By the way, what's up with two three-game series in Milwaukee against the Cubs and two four-game series in Chicago?
  18. Where were you when he tore things up during the homestand? He didn't single-handedly sink the Brewers on offense tonight.
  19. At least know that Suppan has the ability to throw a good game. Let's hope it's one of those days (not like that start against the Cubs on ESPN last year).
  20. There was no way he was going to do anything with that pitch. In fact, I would have been surprised if he would've made contact. It was easily, easily a ball.
  21. Not quite an Eric Gregg call at the end there, but man, that ump sure played to the crowd and gave Marmol one.
  22. He had to swing. It was very close and the ump was giving the pitcher balls off the plate outside.
