  1. Put a charge in it, Mark. Like 500 feet. Let Rosenthal do the work....
  2. I REALLY like the camera angle here at Busch. Can we please get the same at MP?
  3. I don't know?! My wife turned it to The Blacklist when it all went down....literally didn't see it.
  4. How hard is it for Davis to take a ball up the middle. His "pull at all costs" approach isn't working. Just go nice and easy up the middle!!!!
  5. PS- Albert stared at 499 and 500 too long....he obviously needs to be ear holed. Although I can't stand the guy, congrats to him. 500 is impressive.
  6. Yeah, an 83 MPH change up is exactly what a hitter looks for in a 3-1 count. Be realistic. I don't think it's remotely unrealistic to expect someone like Braun to swing at either of those pitches. Look for the fastball, adjust to the changeup. Even after taking the first one, what's his excuse on the 3-2 pitch? Guessing wrong? That pitch had the plate, and even if it was slightly off the edge, it was certainly close enough to not let go by. The 3-2 pitch he needs to hit. Protect with 2 is a pretty basic concept. I have zero issue with him sitting on a 3-1 change up. I doubt there are many situations where an MLB hitter sits on a 3-1 change. However, there is no reason for him to go down looking. As someone else posted, I'd be interested to see his zone chart. I agree that it seems he struggles with down and away.

  8. Found this on a Pirates forum talking about yesterday. What I thought was interesting was Volquez got caught using a fertility drug, the same way Manny Ramirez did, it had nothing to do with injury. These types of drugs are typically used to restart testosterone production after coming off a steroids cycle. Braun on the other hand, seems to have actually used PEDs to come back from injury. We all see what we want to see. Ain't that the truth.... I read that on BucsDugout as well. That whole entire comment thread is pure gold.
  9. I don't think this has been posted yet, but here is what was written in bucsdugout. The quotes are pretty good, some of which are new to me. The comments, however..... http://www.bucsdugout.com/2014/4/20/5634698/postgame-reaction-carlos-gomez-blames-travis-snider-for-brawl
  10. I personally think he should tweet McCann and Cole and ask them what he should do next time he hits a bomb. When they respond "act like you've done it before," he can keep sprinting around the bases and watching his shots for .5 seconds. In other words, this whole thing is incredibly stupid. Grow up, MLB.
  11. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20140418&content_id=72599650&vkey=news_hou&c_id=hou I just don't get this stuff. If you don't like that someone else is playing competitively in the first inning of a MLB game, don't give up 7 runs. If I were Bo, I would worry about learning the actual rules first..... Thoughts?
  12. Will any game ever beat the night with TLR whining about the ribbon boards before the game, coupled with some Braun/Pujols bean ball wars, coupled with Yadi spitting on an ump, coupled with some media guy coming from home to snap on TLR after the game and it getting all over ESPN? That game snapped an 8 game home winning streak, and cost me a seat in a suite.... I'd been to the entire homestand, and the next game was during the day, and my boss had promised me a day off and a spot in the suite if they won that night. So, yes.....

  14. Would've had speed on 2nd and 3rd with only two out with Braun and Rami up. That was beyond stupid.
  15. This team isn't very good. Period. That came out of my mouth one week ago. Whoops.
  16. It's kind of a weird camera angle. I thought Braun was dead on the inside pitch and it missed by at least 6-12 inches.
  17. I think we're going to see some long balls the way the wind is howling today.
  18. It was definitely nice to see them get the bats going. After games 2 and 3 against the Braves, I was admittedly pessimistic Friday afternoon. I'm glad they busted out.
