    Anybody know how if the team ERA has fallen in recent weeks? It seems like it should have. The bullpen has been doing a great job as of late.....no proof, just seems that way.
  2. homer
    Well they won, but I still think it was a dumb move to have one of your better hitters bunt with a man on second and no outs. Nice bunt though.
  3. homer
    Again, why is GINTER BUNTING??????
  4. homer
    Way to run yourselves out of an inning, donkeys! Bill James is spinning in his, uh, chair.
  5. homer
    Why the hell is Hall bunting? Let him swing!!
  6. homer

    ewwww

    Removing the angry emoticon now that Lyle has gone deep.
  10. homer
    Against righties, Bill Hall is now batting.339 with 4 homers and 16 rbi.
  11. homer
    Well there should be no complaints on the lineup today - Ginter is starting, Hall is starting and the 3rd base is not batting 6th. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

    Can't wait to see Overbay go for 19 in a row.
  13. homer
    I hope you're right.
  14. homer
    As opposed to a rational explanation, I'll give you another example: Brooks Kieschnick. Do you think if he started everyday he'd have an OPS over 1.000?
  15. homer
    Before I start another Ginter war, I just want to clarify that the reason I bring all this up is that I get the impression that people thinkg Ginter will be able to maintain an OPS of upwards of .825 - .850 as a starter and I just don't think that's realistic. Having said that, if he has a .700 - .750 OPS as a starter I think that could be considered successful and I'd have no problem with him as the starting 2B after Spivey gets traded and into next year.
  16. homer
    My point is that he's not shown that he's better than Helms as a starter. Most of his at bats are in spot duty. When he was given the starting job his numbers fell - same with last year - he hit .271 in July, .244 in August, .222 in Sept. As a result his OPS went from .859 to .812 to .788 These are not bad numbers by any means, but my opinion (and it could be proven wrong and if he does I will be the first to admit it) is that given an everyday role, we can't expect him to have an .800 OPS I'll grant you that he gets his share of extra base hits, but so does Kieschnick. Can we expect Brooks to maintain his 1.061 OPS all year? No, and that's why I'm not in favor of starting him either. His role is pinch hitting which puts him in a position to succeed.
  17. homer
    Helms and Ginter had the exact same OPS last year (actually Helms' was better by a small percentage) - no small sample there.
  18. homer
    For me he just has to produce more consistently when he starts. He hasn't done that this year although I think the day or two off he just had will help.
  19. homer
    Maybe Ginter or Hall should start for Podsednik.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
  20. homer
    I hope Ginter can catch fire and prove to me that he's more than a utility man. I'd enjoy being proven wrong on that one.
  21. homer
    Peter Noone is calling for a sweep? Sweet! http://www.beachboardwalk.com/concerts/2003_bands/t_PeterNoone.jpg
  22. homer
    Didn't there used to be a thread with links to all the stat resources that Brewerfan uses? I can't seem to find it.
  23. homer
    I usualy wait until the end of the year to give my thanks, but heck, I'm in such a good mood after Sheets performance yesterday, I need to spread some love. Thanks, Mass Brew!!
  24. homer
    I'm going to jump in and suggest you guys start another thread on strikeouts. This could last a while.
  25. homer
    He ties the record. 14K's is amazing. And there it is!! 15 strikeouts is a new Brewer record.
