    "Hello, bullpen. Is there anyone out there who would like to pitch?"
  2. Bruce Ciskie
    Dude's throwing 86. And we're making it look like the Ryan Express. Hey, look. Braun's 0-2 again. Is he capable of taking a pitch out of the zone?
  3. Bruce Ciskie
    With this team, it'll do. Shoot, at least we won't get no-hit by this psychotic soft-tosser.
  4. Bruce Ciskie
    I sit corrected. Ned got tossed. Thank God. We have a real manager now. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Where the hell was Yost the, oh, fifth time the ump said "That's it"? Freaking idiot. Don't wait for your center fielder to get tossed before you get mad.
  6. Bruce Ciskie
    This has happened for years. Skaalen skated last year because Fielder hit 50 and Braun was on fire from the second he arrived.
  7. Bruce Ciskie
    That bat exploded.
  8. Bruce Ciskie
    Phil Garner just did it three years ago in Houston. Just sayin'. It hardly ever happens because the majority of teams that replace their managers during the season are bad. If this team is actually bad, more than Yost should get fired. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  9. Bruce Ciskie
    Sure, and in this case, at least a goodly portion of that gap can be made up by taking into account a horrible defense that could probably make vintage Dennis Eckersley look like the closing version of Fausto Carmona. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    We can use all the metrics we want, but this much is clear: If Weeks makes the throw to first on the double-play ball in the Cardinal game, and the first-base umpire correctly calls Blom out Sunday, we're not having this discussion right now. And neither of those things are Gagne's fault.
  11. Bruce Ciskie
    It's not about this call. It's about the next one. When Gagne started getting squeezed, Yost could have thrown himself on his sword to try to get the next call. That was insane today. Gagne threw well enough to get the job done, and he got insanely squeezed and outright jobbed on that call at first base. We were getting the bounces in the first half of last season. Maybe this is a good sign for the summer.
  12. Bruce Ciskie
    Don't worry. I'm sure we can count on Hall here.
  13. Bruce Ciskie
    This would require Ned Yost to note such a pattern. You have a better chance of getting Simon Cowell to button his shirt.
  14. Bruce Ciskie
    On the bright side, we learned that Ned wouldn't tolerate a pitcher giving up four straight home runs. That's refreshing information.
  15. Bruce Ciskie
    Just stand there and look stupid, Ned. It's what you do best. Idiot.
  16. Bruce Ciskie
    Ugh. Did someone tell Villy it was the sixth inning?
  17. Bruce Ciskie
    Pretty obvious that Ned left Suppan in because he's due up in the third inning. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  18. Bruce Ciskie
    Um. Boo.
  19. Bruce Ciskie
    For all Ned's faults, I'll never criticize the guy for being gutless...or for too quickly giving up on a player. That doesn't seem to be a problem. Turnbow really stepped up last night and came through. I hope that's a jolt of confidence for him.
  20. Bruce Ciskie
    No pitcher should throw Ryan Braun a strike until he starts showing some plate discipline. Aargh.
  21. Bruce Ciskie
    This has been a problem for years. Why would anyone be surprised? We may be the worst fundamental team in the division right now. We don't take pitches or work counts, we don't move runners, we run into outs, we blow easy defensive plays, and our bullpen management is about third-grade level.
  22. Bruce Ciskie
    I wish Kendall would get run. Not because it would be good for the Brewers, but because I want to see what Yost would do to fill the holes defensively. Comical.
  23. Bruce Ciskie
    Way to take a terrible pitch, Kendall. Well, except that it was hittable and should have been swung at. Just blame the shadows. Yeah, that's it.
  24. Bruce Ciskie
    Of course, Turnbow wouldn't have been in that position had we not run ourselves into more outs in the seventh and eighth innings. We have to lead the league in the number of outs made at home plate, especially when it comes time to run the contact play while the infield is in.
  25. Bruce Ciskie
    Shouse's arm fell off this morning. Mitch Stetter has denied responsibility.
