  1. AWESOME win tonight. Man I love hearing Ueck get fired up on a broadcast. Such a fun one to listen to!
  2. I too worry that they will start to slow down a bit but it points to the pitching comments. When you typically have better matchups it treats you good. And we have a pretty darn good starting staff so most of the time the matchups favor us. It's so fun having these starters.....makes me smile. I too am cool with Casey in there at 5 tonight but I wonder if it would be better to slide him down more for a bit. When Nyjer is in there I think you have to, but in this case it's ok. Hope he figures this out.
  3. Good stuff. Congrats to the family! Always nice to have some positive vibes on this board........(in blue) but I'm sure someone will argue that he should have had a girl because statistically you pitch better if you have a daughter vs a son. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  4. Awesome series! I'm really nervous about the cards series, I hope we can take it to them! If we want to win this division we have to be able to beat the good teams. As for Reyes, It's been my pipe dream since the start of the year that we trade for him at the deadline. I really don't think we will but man that would be a perferct fit if there ever was one. I know nothing about the guy, where he'd want to be, etc.....but it's nice to dream.
  5. Wow, that's all I can say on that one.
  6. Ya would love to see ZG go at least 7 in this one. BP could use a bit of a break. Man, getting a win tonight would just feel great! Guys should be loose and having fun out there.
  7. I think the cancer stuff came in too when he was complaining about where he wanted to play. Wasn't he saying that's why he was struggling at the plate??? I could be wrong but I remember him saying he wanted to even be traded at one point. Help me out on this. Not that I think he's a cancer because of that. Only reason I like him is because he can play everywhere, even pitch! But I don't think it would be a wise move to grab him.
  8. Ya, way too early to move him off third. Like I said, if it continues and the defense is getting hurt as well, then we can look at other options. Right now I do think more days off to get him right is the way to go. He's not hurting us right now, but he sure could give us a boost if he can get hot.
  9. Man what an amazing road trip so far. If we could have held on to that one vs Cincy it would be that much better. I hope ZG has a game where he pitches well and gets deep in the game.
  10. How is it fair to not look at what he did as a full time player in the bigs the last two years? Can you really say he "over produced" for two years? We only have minor league numbers to look at before that. I feel like it's pretty bold to do that compared to two years of major league numbers. As many have said, he's not a stud, and I don't think many thought he was before this year. I agree that if we get avg or better (we did the last two years) we are sitting pretty with him. He's struggling right now but I feel like he'll get out of it. I agree, keep giving him days off, especially against tough righties. Hopefully he can keep working the cages with Dale and figure this out. I don't think he's great but he's been very solid for us for two years, I think he deserves a chance to right the ship. That being said, I have no problem bringing up a guy in a month to split time with him if he continues to struggle.
  11. This one just hurt. As an earlier poster said, we could have gotten rid of some serious demons with a series win here. But as said, on the road vs a good team, getting 1 of 3 is still ok. Just hurts that we could have had 2. We just need more insurance when facing a really good offensive team like the Reds!
  12. Here's to Shaun having a day and the Brewers getting out of Cincy with a series win! I think when Hart can hear the dueling banjos just over the river, he gets excited....has a nother big game.
  13. Was at the game and I do have to say it seemed like there were fewer people there then normal. I think coming off the holiday weekend and the team being on a big skid might have had something to do with it. It was super hot out too, but I guess that is normal for down here. I'd say this is a big baseball town, I wouldn't look too much in to last nights game. Was at a weekday afternoon game a few weeks ago vs the Pirates and it was packed. Great Def by YB last night. He looked really good! Part of it had to do with the shifts, which some people hate (but that only comes up when they don't work). Well the shifts seemed to work well last night. This was a big win. Now if we can get todays game that will be huge for the team's confidence. Beating the Reds on the road is a double win.
  14. I really don't think you can do much on this except say catchers can't block the plate or say no contact to the head. Otherwise if the catcher is in the way, he's going to get run over. Really no other choice. The other problem I see with "you can't block the plate" is if the throw is up the line he's going to be in the way so there could be a collision there. Just don't think you can really make that rule. I know this stuff comes up when someone get's hurt, but I would say this is not something that happens a ton. People get hurt in sports.
  15. Whoops, sorry about the screw up, hadn't had my coffee yet. I like the idea of Nyjer 2nd but not sure we should move Hart. I'd love to go back to pitcher 8th and CF 9th but it does take away AB's. I guess I'm just excited to have him back and hopefully in the lineup.
  16. Just curious what you think his role is going forward. Also, what you'd like it to be. I'm not convinced he gets used for a majority of starts going forward like a lot of us would like. I'm hoping he is the main starter in CF with Gomez starting against tough lefties. Has RRR said anything about what he plans to do with him when he gets back? I love Gomez's defense in CF but I don't think Nyger is too much of a drop off and should give us a rather large boost on O.
  17. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSxDlpnpgpJ2xc2h50_CSeVelWQEZtA2tNQRV4EPZIROS04K99vTg ? hahaha, love it! Great win today and great sweeps!. I have to say, right now the aggressive base running is a beautiful thing. I think the biggest thing is situational (how many outs, who's up next, what inning, etc) but I do love taking the aggressive aproach. Great win Milwaukee, keep up the hot streak.
  18. I sometimes wonder if Melvin would make a big splash and get Reyes from NYM......maybe a pipe dream. Their owner just crushed him so maybe that will help lower his price.
  19. Awesome win! Fell asleep in the top of the 8th, woke up and the recap was on (radio) so I sat and relived it, not knowing what the outcome was. Awesome!! So pumped up. Let's get the sweep here today boys!
  20. Wow, Lucroy is playing so well right now! It's great getting this type of offense from our catcher. I just wanted to give him a little love for playing at this high level right now. Coming back after missing most of the spring and stepping up right away. Started talking about this more in the IGT yesterday but where would you like to see him in the lineup? I almost would like him 2 and Hart 5......but I hate to mess with Hart right now.
  21. Right now if Gomez is batting 8th, I'm cool with him getting on base once a game.
  22. Ok I know Hart is hot as heck right now, but would it be dumb to have him bat 5th and Lucroy 2nd (I know that he'd get fewer at bats over the year)? I just like him better in the RBI spot after Prince and Braun are on. Then move Casey back one spot.
