  1. John Kruk picked Cameron in BBTN's little Sunday fantasy baseball game they play.
  2. Brewer's relievers, NL ranks: ERA: 5th Saves: 1st BAA: 5th Wins: 5th Losses: t2nd best Save %: 3rd WHIP is only 12th, but is .02 from 7th and .10 from 3rd, so the difference is pretty minor. I can live with this.
  3. This will just make the win even better, since it will be in walk-off style.
  4. I hope Gorzelanny's stint in the minors didn't help him find last year's form. At least for Saturday.
  5. Some nice comments by our nemesis: "They really believe in themselves and what they are out to accomplish," Pirates shortstop Jack Wilson said. "You can see it. It's been different the last couple years. You have seen them grow into a very good team with the same players every year. Other than being their opponent, it's been nice to see something we would want here."
  6. The bad news: St. Louis is up 12-1 in the 6th. The good news: They've hit their runs quota for the series.
  7. I see your point. My thought is that (and obviously, I'm no pro) if you are given a fat pitch right away, you might as well swing, since you don't know when you're going to see another.
  8. I just said to nobody, since I'm by myself at my computer, that it would be a good time for Rickie to try to bunt for a hit. I am Manager of the Year.
  9. I'm not sure why this matters. The only "bad" pitch he swung at was the one for his first out, and considering there were two strikes on him, it wasn't an outrageous pitch at which to swing.
  10. I wonder of Yost will think about pitching McClung on Sunday instead of CC if we have extended our lead over St. Louis, making him available for the two game series against the Cards. Then again (although it doesn't really matter with CC), St. Louis's big hitters are mostly righties.
  11. If the Brewers and Cubs both clinch playoff spots at the same time, they should all celebrate on the field together in an act of brotherhood and solidarity.
  12. A lot, but not much was his fault. Tejada perfect bunt. Berkman HBP that probably didn't actually hit him (although Tejada would've been to 2nd on wild pitch). Error on Prince, bases loaded nobody out. Pence GIDP 1-2-3. Newhan ground out.
  13. Don't worry. This is all leading to a quadruple play.
  14. I'm going to assume, without looking at the stats, that Sheets has been more successful at laying down bunts in his career than he has at swinging away.
  15. I left the computer thinking, "Ok, Sheets will bunt, and hopefully not pop it up." Then I came back and saw he flew out. That made sense.
  16. I think the reason they have non-zero OPS's is because they get hits sometimes.
  17. I just watched the replay on the interwebs, and it seems to me that Hardy thought they were going to try to get Durham at the plate. I don't think it was a bad thought.
  18. He does, for his career. His batting skills started to diminish last year. I'm not surprised, either, considering how many games he has played behind the plate in his career.
  19. Is it just me, or does Corey Hart seem to crush A LOT of deep outs to center?
  20. I would have to put the Cubs ahead of us in that department. Zambrano and Harden (with the obligatory "if he stays healthy") is a fantastic 1-2 punch, and Dempster is having a Cy Young-eque season. Lilly and Marquis as their 4 and 5 is pretty nice. And, while we've seen they can get cold at the plate, they have a very well-constructed lineup.
  21. I wouldn't call this a "problem," in that giving up 3 runs in 7 innings is a nice day's work. It's just unfortunate timing. 3 runs in 6 2/3 is not a nice day's work for an ace. It translates to a 4.35 ERA. And he was lucky to get away without more damage as a recipient of some great D and luck at the end of that inning. Sheets has been our #2 starter since C.C. arrived and he's pitched like #2. http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/8778/chillpillce5.jpg
  22. I wouldn't call this a "problem," in that giving up 3 runs in 7 innings is a nice day's work. It's just unfortunate timing.
  23. Whoever is doing Gameday for MLB.com is messing with me. He isn't putting "In play, run(s)" up - he's just putting "In play, out(s)."
  24. Hindsight, obviously (and I guess it wouldn't have mattered since Iguchi singled), but would walking Iguchi to load the bases have been a decent idea? I mean, with guys on 2nd and 3rd and no outs, you are basically asking Sheets to induce a popout or strike the guy out.
