  1. I only wish that St Louis would have hired Andy to be THEIR hitting coach, instead. 2022: Goldschmidt. 216-11 HRs-50 RBIs-200 KS Arenado: .215-14 HRs-46 RBIs-205 Ks...you get the idea.
  2. Again, thanks, sveuwmrules. I so badly want to end St Louis's winning streak, send a message and all that. Tonight may not actually be a "must-win", but if we lose to them again, they get bolder, and momentum is building. Anything but a sweep.
  3. Nice work, sveumrules! May I ask: Did we score a lot of runs in some of those 1st, 2nd and 3rd innings, to skew the overall totals? It would be helpful to know, because WAY too often, the Brewers are dazzled by the SP, the first time through the order, but then we adjust (too often, after falling behind, and more often, to a bum starter with an ERA over 5). If it's available to you....thanks
  4. Too bad it's Vogelbach up now. Aside from JBJ and a couple of relievers, literally everyone else is better
  5. And another K for Yelich. By sheer reflex, I saw Kolten at first, down 2 runs, and I clapped my hands and said "C'mon! Tie this up!" What a fool I was
  6. Far be it for me to question CC. OK, I wasn't going to stop there. But how much longer does Yelich continue batting 2nd, slowing down/killing rallies as he guesses wrong on strike 3, or he passively rolls one into the shift? Are beat reporters even asking about Yelich anymore?
  7. Never said CC was wrong or crazy or anything, but record aside, wouldn't you want to squeeze the life out of the Cubs today with a sweep? Just questioning the timing of all this, which is what a fan forum is all about, right? I hope like hell, I'm proven wrong!
  8. I'm sure CC has his reasons, but... - But after getting 2 hits in an inning!...why would he bench JBJ the next day? Jackie's always been streaky, so maybe, with a little success on Monday, he could keep playing? Hell, we've had to endure Bradley's barrages of 0-for-4's, so even if he did draw a collar last night, so? - But with the chance to really step on the Cubs today, like a cigarette butt, why experiment with Ashby now? The freakin' Pirates are up next, and Burnes could've sent Chicago's batters into a deep funk for the weekend. - But if Ashby needs a roster spot, which reliever gets demoted? Didn't seem like the best timing all around.
  9. Thank goodness Bud Black doesn't feel like playing his best lineup either. Because Lauer against Tapia, Blackmon and McMahon would not be Must See TV. Now The Great Vinny Rottino is on TV. We need a scorecard for the announcers
  10. And "that quirky Dim Tillard - he's different! He has a Dallas Braden beard!" is not a good fill-in. Yesterday, he surmised that Kolten Wong left the game because, after getting on base 3 times, "he was too tired." Today, he missed the fact that Omar Narvaez has batted 2nd, 8 times this year. He said Fuentes calls his cousin, Nolan Arenado, "Cousin Nolan!" which was lame. And then he doubled down just now on that ridiculous "Kolten Wong was tired" narrative. I'll try to sync up the radio broadcast...
  11. Do we have a hitting lab like the pitching lab Burnes was sent to? My god, if we DO have one, it's as abandoned as an opera house in The Ozarks. And if our hitters ARE hitting the lab, everyone working there must be let go, and the whole facility must be burned to the ground.
  12. I have maybe 5% confidence that something good will happen when these guys are at bat: - JBJ - Yelich - Hiura 10% when they come up: - Cain - Vogelbach - Shaw That's WAY too many professional ballplayers who are psyched out before they even take a swing. Can't fire all these players, but you CAN bring In a different voice to coach them. Oh yeah, and Suter is good at crossing his eyes, somersaults on the mound, and acting foolish, and in his last 8 innings, he has given up 8 runs.
  13. Hence the question mark, TF! It just felt like an emotional overreaction, sending away a blue-chip "nugget" ( to recycle an old Doug Melvin term). Seems like the Padres saw us coming...
  14. Tough to add anything profoundly new here, but my hot take is that Adames is an upgrade over Urias, who seems doomed to the utility infielder role that Hernan held for a few years. Bigger picture, sending away Grisham seemed to be a knee-jerk reaction to his error in the playoff game. A lot of bad things happened that inning...but all people remember is scapegoating Trent for overrunning that ball. Kinda like Leon Durham, Bill Buckner and...to an extent, Steve Bartman in his green jacket and earbuds, taking the foul ball away from Alou at Wrigley. And that Grisham deal, made in....anger?...is haunting us still. Hell, in 2099, the ghost of Trent Gresham will roam the area in RF where that ball skipped away from him...
  15. 1-0 may as well be 10-0. Shaw looks lost, JBJ is an automatic out, and Yelich is back to guessing wrong and swinging at balls that nearly touch his belt buckle.
  16. Thanks, CC. You would think that Zimmermann would at least know where 1st base was. And Dave xis? Nice post. On Quick Pitch, they led with 2 crappy teams playing one another. One of them was the Yankees, so that's "what ALL fans want to see first!!" When the Yanks were in last place, their highlight package was buried in the 20th minute or so. With all the Brewers' injuries, knocking off the champs? Nah. Aaron Judge coverage!!
  17. Tell me about it! They should definitely wear those throwbacks at least once a year. Maybe rotate which retro uni's each month?
  18. Thanks for the insight, Jim. I'll probably just settle for a knockoff. I doubt anyone will have me "assume the position" as they frisk me for tags!
  19. HELP! I figured someone here would be better...best?...qualified to point me to a solid resource in my decades-old quest. I'm looking to buy a 1970 Brewers road uniform top. In my opinion the powder blue re-purposed Pilots road uniforms were the coolest in team history. They had those 4 gold stripes on the sleeves and the lower case 'brewers' across the front in gold. Davey May and Gene Brabender wore them. I've looked online, even trying to buy a game-worn Eli Rodriguez or a Ted Kubiak, and I can't find anything available. I might even turn to having a T-shirt shop here in Chicago recreate one for me somehow. Does anyone have any leads? Thanks so much!
