Series Over. Why did Marcum start again? Why is he still in?

Glad it worked http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

They are done

As always, make sure that you're familiar with the board's language policy. It's your responsibility to preview posts to make sure the language you use doesn't get caught in the cuss filter. Also, intentionally misspelling or using abbreviations to avoid the filter violates the rules. As language violations are strikes, it would be a good idea to review this section. And as a reminder, note that three forums have additional rules (Major Leagues, In-Game Threads, and Trading Post). They're stickied in their respective forums. The In-Game Thread rules have been revised this year. You'll want to take a moment to read them. Additionally, several forums have FAQs to help you get around. It's been suggested by some that the moderators are all too eager to wield their authority. I can speak for those who moderate when I assure you that nothing could be further from the truth. We'd be very happy to simply read the material posted on the forums and talk some baseball. However, we do feel strongly about maintaining the integrity of the board. As hawing stated last year, "Our approach to forum conduct has helped build a community that is highly regarded among Brewers employees, families of players, and (by now) thousands of members who love the Brewers and follow them closely." Thanks for your time and attention... and, of course, Go Brewers! 1992casey Brewerfan Usability Director I agree

Looks like the brewers have just decided to choke a little bit later this year. Corey Hart is right...this team plays really loose on the road.

It was funny listening to Bill defending Yost's lineup. It makes sense to have the LF bat 3rd

I don't like that they are bringing it in mid-season, if they are going to do it it should be at the beginning of the year, it would be like the NBA saying we are moving the 3 pt line back right before the playoffs. That is pretty poor analogy. If baseball changed the distance between base paths, than maybe your analogy would have merit. Allowing replay on homerun calls doesn't actually effect the way the game is being played.

I disagree. The correlation is obvious; there is a distinct trend between low walk rates and Outside Swing Percentage. Then why is the correlation factor so low?

That is a pretty weak correlation. It is basically irrelevant.

This has been such an terrible season as a fan. It seems like the wins we do have we barely hung on and we have had a bunch of terrible losses.

I agree that there should be moderation because things get out of hand, but there reaches a point where it is overkill and I think this board is near that point. The only reason I mention this is because while there is a lot of great information here, there seems to be a lack of "fun" threads.

I think you guys need to take it easy on all the moderating of the boards. I have never seen a board that has so many locked threads and such up-tight posting. Also, having a long thread about one topic gets annoying because most don't want to try and skim through it.

Wow would it be Skaalen's fault? Haven't you heard Bill Schroeder gush about the world class instruction these hitters are getting? Also, what about brian telling us about how Skaalen never shows emotion and that somehow is a great trait for a hitting coach to have.

wow, this team sucks.

This team has just been awful recently.
