Re: Cain and Escobar, I'm sure in 3 years, KC fans will be saying the same thing about Myers and Odorizzi. Do you think they care now? -
Trending now on Twitter: Yost and Ebola. Sounds about right.

It's bad enough the kid was thrown into the situation. I assumed he was well-rested. Ventura threw 74 pitches 2 days ago!
-
It appeared 13 of the strike 3 pitches were fastballs. That might be a record.

Watch the MLB Must-C "Combo" video for two hilarious highlights: the first is the Pirates fan spiking his glove after Braun's home run. The second is Uecker screaming "He got it. He GOT it!" in the background of Joe Block's Khris Davis home run call.

Passion. Gomez deserves huge credit for keeping this franchise afloat during a nearly disastrous 2013 ... by being Gomez. He and his all-out style were exactly what the Brewers needed. The fans identify with this passion and his teammates feed off of it.

It says Dear Juan.

What bothers me is my cable bill is being used to pay A-Rod and was used to lure CC away from the Brewers.

Hart to have knee surgery (Reply #88: Had surgery 1/25)
NYChez replied to markedman5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Lucroy up to #5 in the order, Gamel 6th. You've got to feel good for Gamel. -
Gallardo is playing in the WBC. This worries me. Is his manager going to worry about delivering a healthy pitcher to the Brewers or doing everything he can to beat the Dominican Republic? If Gallardo gets hurt the Brewers will be lucky to win 70 games.

An example is 1978. Freddie Patek started and played the entire all-star game and his OPS that year was .630. Yount's was .752. However, Patek stole a bunch of bases and his team, the Royals, had played in the ALCS the past 2 years against the Yankees. Patek was very likely a more household name, and that's all that mattered back then. Another example is 1984. Alfredo Griffin made the all-star team and his OPS that year was .546. Yount's was .806 and Yount played in 160 games (so he wasn't hurt). Yount was also statistically better on defense that year, but Griffin was likely known as a "slick fielder" whose plays showed up frequently on "This Week in Baseball".

I'd pick Gallardo to start a playoff game over Greinke and Greinke will be making double what Gallardo is making. This makes me happy. However, with players like the Dodgers, Angels, and Rangers now spending like the Yankees, I wonder if we'll see a temporary end to the contracts to young players that buy out free agent years. It's going to be very difficult for the Brewers to keep players like Gallardo and Braun beyond 6 years.
-
The Brewers somehow have Gallardo signed up through 2015 at less than $13 mil per. I'd have to think if he was on the open market now he'd get a bigger contract than Greinke is expecting to get - probably over $200 mil total. It's more important than ever to keep the minors stocked with good arms. Signing decent free agents or even retaining your own quality players seems out of the question with several teams acting like the Yankees.

Nats were outclassed.

You've got a bad Natitude.

Correct answer. If the wildcard teams complain, they should be given the option of reverting back to the pre-1995 rules (only the division winners make it).
-
In 2009 and 2010 Brewers' 2nd basemen (mainly Weeks) were 3rd in the MLB in OPS. In a good year Weeks is top 5. In a bad year he's still top third.
-
Out of 32 teams: Catcher: 4th. First base: 16th. Second base: 11th. Third base: 3rd. Shortstop: 20th. Left field: 1st. Center field: 17th. Right field: 12th. Pitcher: 9th. Pretty good situation when everyone is around league average or better with everyone returning and the one weak spot potentially being significantly improved.

Has Veras ever gotten ahead of a hitter?

Based on my research, the best 30-some stretches in Brewer history have taken place in the last 13 months. 2011: 27-5 2012: 24-6 I was having a difficult time finding a stretch of better than 20-10 in any other year.

Love the STLToday headline: "Brewers Unconcious"

If only the umpire was in proper position to make the call.

2 1/2 games out with 17 to play! And Cardinals in FULL meltdown mode.

On a double by Luis Cruz!

In retrospect, how much has losing Prince hurt?
NYChez replied to adambr2's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
What the offense has done this season is nothing short of miraculous. The Brewers have scored 665 runs, and only one MLB team has scored more than 667. Even the most wildly optimistic Brewer fan expected a moderate to substantial drop in team offensive production with the loss of Prince. The offense actually got a lot better! Kudos to Melvin for bringing in Aoki and Ramirez and to Roenicke for putting Gomez in his proper spot in the order and letting him swing for the fences.
