again, easy to say in retrospect. but that still gives you two outs. Bringing in a pinch hitter that gets on base increases the odds of getting to Braun/Fielder a lot more (which is huge in a one run game). I'm not saying it's wrong if you have Mitre drop a bunt. But I don't have a problem with pinch hitting there. And neither would anybody had Weeks and Braun not popped up. And I'm also not saying Roenicke did nothing wrong. I definitely don't agree with the whole Kotsay thing, or with using Loe AGAIN. But there's nothing wrong with pinch hitting for Mitre there.

Roenicke wants me to think he's an idiot (Kotsay in CF)

gomez replaced braun defensively. kotsay just shifted. -
easy to say in hindsight. I would guess that most people here would have jumped all over RR for having Mitre hit with a man on in the 6th.
-
When the LOOGY (Stetter) gives up a hit to a lefty to lead off the innning and then he leaves him in to face two righties, which Stetter is horrible against it is 100% on RR. This mismanagment of the bullpen has been going on all year, and you wonder where the RR hate comes from? Stetter only faced 1 batter.
-
aaaaand he gets doubled off on a line drive. i swear he just can't do something good and leave it at that. so frustrating.
-
So they could pinch hit boggs, who successfully produced a hit and run to set up 1st and 3rd for the top of the order.
-
well, i blame myself for this. sorry everyone.
-
Reserve that "best day" comment until after we win http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif fair enough. either way, that was the best 25 minute stretch I've had in quite a while.
-
So I just finished my cumulative final for the year (and passed it, 2 years down, woo), and then I deposited a monster tax return. I think to myself, could this day get any better? Then I get home, crack open the Lakefront I've had reserved just for today, and turn on mlb.tv to see Yuni give the brewers the lead....and Uecker is on the call? TODAY IS THE BEST DAY.
-
nope, they all play 3 teams from the AL east (4 in the case of the reds), as well as two series against their "rival" or whatever. The brewers get the red sox, yankees, and rays (as well as the twins), the reds get the jays, orioles, yankees, and rays (as well as the indians), while the cardinals get the jays, orioles, and rays (as well as kansas city). Actually, the cubs only play 2 AL east teams, they have a series against the royals as well. Either way, the cardinals schedule is significantly easier.
-
about time something finds a seam (i guess? i always forget i can't write "hole" there) for braun.
-
only 1 K that inning? weak.
-
it was a pretty good pitch to hit...he just missed it. He's one of the best hitters in the league, I don't have a problem with him swinging there. The pitch was on the outside corner. Thats not a pitch to swing at on 3-0. I have no problem swining, as long as its in a spot to drive. That was a good pitchers pitch. i didn't think it was outside at all (neither did pitch fx)...it was a pitch i've seen prince drive plenty of times. agree to disagree, lets get some runs.

really, the rest of the month does. 15 of 19 games at home looks like a great way to climb back in to things. The teams in the second half of that stretch are pretty good teams, so it has to start now with the padres and the pirates. I still believe in this team (although I've been out of the country for a week, so I haven't had to suffer like you guys), and I think it's time they put it all together. hooray optimism.
-
yuck. pretty poor performance all around...those games are always so depressing. Not good to be in a funk like this so early into a long road trip...things can really snowball on trips like this. hopefully they turn it around tomorrow because they know they can't play like this when I get my one chance to see them live
-
Loe has trouble vs LHers. If minorleaguesplits still existed you could easily see this in all the work he did in Nashville. ahh, I wasn't aware that he struggled vs lefties. Thanks. Shouldn't this be something our manager should know and be prepared for?can't play matchups like that every time. plus he got a lefty out the AB before wallace. he's the setup guy, he was looking good through two hitters...he gets to finish that inning. and he would have if the ump calls strike three. oh well.
-
it was a strike, but you are right. gotta love umpires making calls like that, or calling guys out because the ball beat them to the bag. I'd like to think calls like that even out for a team throughout a season, but you only notice them or remember them when they go against you. oh well, win the series tomorrow and then get to atlanta so i can see some brewer games.
-
game 1 of the phillies series. also, let's get to extra innings first.
-
there was a pretty satisfying cheer in that stadium when prince went yard. good work brewer fans.
-
GET SOME
-
hey braun, just pretend it's brad lidge out there.
-
WHY CAN'T YOU JUST DO SOMETHING GOOD AND LEAVE IT AT THAT CARLOS?! god it's frustrating
-
that's right, i forgot there was an infield single. i didn't get a good look at it either, i think i was in the kitchen or something....but from what i gathered it was a pretty tough play and bourgeois's speed probably would have beat it out anyway. Either way, if they lose this game it won't be because of the defense.
-
great outing for wolf, by the way. he's been lights out. can we please get someone on for braun this inning?
