  1. Yes. Photobucket is a good choice.
  2. To post an image, use this ezCode: http://address.of.image Replace "http://address.of.image" with the web address of your image. If the image is large (and might cause sideways scrolling), use this code: width=500http://address.of.image[/img]
  3. I think I'll start listening for those instead of the 'ands'. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  4. I think the New York thing still happens. There has to be a way to expedite this process. If either management or the union feels strongly that these hearings have to be conducted in person, then 'flying the hearing to the player' ought to be strongly considered.
  5. Brian said he's about 5'9". Schroeder is listed at 6'2" on Baseball-reference.com.
  6. I think one defined role can be to spell Wise, Turnbow, or Cordero when any of those guys could use a day of rest. With about 250 innings to play with between them, Gallardo and Villanueva can do that while still keeping the team well covered for multiple inning situations.
  7. I like Brian. My complaints are picky (kind of like I'd deem Scott's http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif). First and foremost, he has to reevaluate how he pronounces 'groin'. Another that I've only heard in only one game: "bases loaded clearing double". That doesn't seem right? somehow. By the way, I'll listen for the 'and' thing.
  8. Turnbow should be the 'regular' setup man. Villanueva (and Gallardo) can spell Derrick or Matt Wise at times to make sure they have adequate rest. The one-inning outings Carlos has had this year haven't seemed to get in the way of anything. With Yo now entering the bullpen picture, it would seem that between the two of them, the opportunity for more one-inning outings would become available.
  9. I assume Owen was on JenksFan5's lap tonight. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  10. When I said 'being concerned', I meant it's the spot where you should start paying attention so you're ready for your exit. I'm glad mapquest popped up a route using Dempster as the exit. You'll be exiting the Edens before reaching the Kennedy. The Edens is a fairly calm stretch of road; the Kennedy isn't. EDIT: always figure on a lot of traffic! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  11. I'll bet this one works. I know brettac1 has used it. Putfile.com
  12. To post it on the board, you should be able to simply put the url to the song into ezCode or HTML link tags, just as you would for any other link. EDIT: I just noticed that you have may an additional issue involving where to store the song. Is this thing residing on your hard drive or is it on the internet? If the song's already on the 'net, just link to it as described above. If you need to find a home for it, hopefully someone will suggest a free option that's good.
  13. A useful starter, a reliever, and a prospect for a setup man? I think adding Gallardo or Vargas to the current bullpen can easily provide a boost from potentially several angles. I wouldn't be surprised. But keep in mind that the difference between Yo and Bush/Vargas may not be all that significant. There are some options available in Nashville that wouldn't be very feasible in Milwaukee. For instance, in AAA, management could decide to pitch him on 6 days rest for a span or give him a couple of 60-pitch starts. I agree. I think the way to go would be to try to come in about 10 innings under whatever 'goal' the team has set for the regular season. If he pitches 20 innings in the playoffs after that, I'd figure we're fine. By the way, the Gallardo and limiting his innings thread is still available if people would prefer to use it.
  14. Since it appears that baseball-reference.com has recently offered a lot more to play with, maybe you can offer the steps that finding the answer would entail. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  15. It looks like you're headed for 1649 W. Howard Street. Plugging in Kenosha as an arbitrary starting point, here are mapquest directions. Step 8 is about the point where you should be concerned. Here's Wikipedia's Red Line page.
  16. It could be designed to work a little bit better, but ESPN's Standings Page has popup controls to access daily standings.
  17. I'm with BillScottCanRake on the tactile thing. But I'd be willing to trade that off in exchange for the huge screen.
  18. Branching off of b19's milestone tracker, I found this stuff on mlb.com: MLB.com Active Leaders MLB.com All-Time Leaders MLB.com Annual Leaders MLB.com Single Season Records MLB.com Longest Standing Records MLB.com More Historical Stats There doesn't seem to be anything sophisticated enough to answer Jamie's question above, though. enth is really cool. For instance, this search? produces this chart: [b]Name Year ba obp slg ops[/b]Bill Hall 2007 0.270 0.337 0.448 0.785 Corey Hart 2007 0.301 0.380 0.506 0.886 Tony Gwynn 2007 0.301 0.363 0.349 0.712[/pre] Also, note the Baseball-reference.com thread. I'll eventually move it to Statistical Analysis to make sure it stays on the forum and it can be linked to from the FAQ.
  19. I'd say the most significant thing to figure out is if she wants to be in on the decision or not. If it's such a complete surprise that you can't talk about it, chances are you haven't discussed marriage enough. Secondarily, even if the ring's a surprise, make sure you're on the same page regarding money. That bill's going to hang around and affect both of you somehow. Also, as FTJ says, there's no law against multiple rings in a long marriage. I remember my parents buying my mom new rings, probably because they must have had enough money on hand to upgrade. A few years later, when my grandmother (dad's mom, who also had multiple rings) passed away, my mom started wearing one of her sets. (Grandma chose to be buried in the ring from her wedding day and wanted her other rings to be used by family members.) I don't know what to suggest if you might be choosing to use a family heirloom. We have a couple of those hanging around. One is the ring my grandmother was saving for her first daughter. There was no daughter, so she then saved it for a granddaughter. With no granddaughter, we all have to agree to save the thing for the next generation?or two or three. I don't know how long that will last. There's been no girl born in my 'immediate extended' family since 1898.
  20. It sounds like I'm going to spend a lot more time at Baseball-Reference.com. I guess I haven't done my fair share of exploring over there recently. If I don't remember to do this on my own, once this thread has run its course, I'd appreciate a PM reminder to archive this thread somewhere so it doesn't drop away (probably in Statistical Analysis). I'd like to link to this from the MLB Forum FAQ.
  21. Well, a couple of Bush starts ago, Ned did say that he could tell when Dave struck out the first batter, he knew there'd be trouble. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Defensive Efficiency Rating is a good stat to address that. Milwaukee's right in the middle. As far as I can tell, it's main limitation is that it doesn't account for multiple-base errors. I think that if the Brewers put Villanueva into the rotation right now, they wouldn't have to worry about pitch counts or innings after the first couple of starts.
  22. Ned said that Yo's pitch limit is in the 110 range, so I'd stop at 115 and relieve him. If we're dealing with a veteran having an easy time of it, I don't have a problem with the occasional 130-pitch game.
  23. Let's see if I can summarize the stats presented last week? Vargas uses up a lot of pitches and carries a LOB percentage that he isn't likely to sustain. Bush's BBs, Ks, etc. are fine. His BABIP indicates he's been unlucky. Dave's SLG pct. against sticks out as a yellow flag, but if you regress his BABIP to the mean, SLG 'normalizes', too.
  24. Yo's innings are certainly an underlying factor, but let's try to keep flat-out back and forth debate on that issue in the Gallardo and limiting his innings thread. As Russ says, the Brewers might make a trade that opens up a spot, but I really like the depth. I guess the only thing I wouldn't do is put both Vargas and Gallardo in the rotation at the same time. As of now, neither seems as likely to go as deep into games as the other guys currently in the rotation.
  25. I absolutely drool at the prospect of Villanueva and Gallardo in dual "Villanueva" roles in the bullpen.
