he did it again!!!!!!!!! -
wait did we just move more than 1 base on a hit? What is that called again?
-
I go the other way. It’s good to see a pitcher get to pitch deep in the game without having to be taken out for a pinch hitter. There was nothing previously that made the pitcher leave the game for a pinch hitter
-
Would Hendricks have stayed in the game without the DH? Who knows, but I don't like to see those decisions get skipped
-
well at least Sogard hit the ball as far as he possibly can
-
Our current lowest hit total on opening day is 3, 1993 and 1973 Edit 2020. Now make me edit again
-
Very nice stache. At least we have one positive to build on from this game
-
well we only need 8 more wins to clinch a playoff spot
-
Can someone tell CC this pitcher can only face lefties. The experiment is over
-
I know, they should move up in the box
-
Nailed it. Other 1B was Charlie Grimm
-
He was 2nd place with 10 starts
-
Tinkers or Dunston for SS, Chance for other 1B, Sosa for RF, no idea on CF Dunston is SS. Ernie Banks has the most overall with 17 (not counting Anson butt bb-ref only has opening day starters since 1901) but he split between SS and 1B Sosa is correct for RF. CF is from Wisconsin
-
Correct answers so far
-
Can you name the Cub player who started the most opening days for them since 1901, so no Cap Anson? C (12 seasons) 1B (12), 2 players tied 2B (13) SS (11) LF (10) CF (7) RF (12) SP (7)
-
Can Sogard even throw the ball from the foul line behind 3rd to first base on a line? Semi serious question
-
mid season form already. well done
-
Got em both, nice job
-
Last opening day DH was Dave Nilsson, 1997 Question: Ryan Braun has 344 career HRs right now. Can you name the only 2 players who had more career HRs than that when they played on the Brewers besides Hank Aaron who retired with 755 in 1976? As a hint, 2 honorable mentions that are not correct are: 2018 Curtis Granderson 332 career HRs the last time he was a Brewer 1990 Dave Parker 328 career HRs the last time he was a Brewer

Former/Current Brewers with a shot at the HOF?
topper09er replied to TexasCheesehead's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I didn't see him mentioned but I have to think Gary Sheffield will eventually make it in with 500+ HRs. -
I agree. Roughly $24 million/year for the next nine years. Yelich must really like Milwaukee, because if he would have played out his contract and got to free agency after 2022, there is no way he isn't a $30+ million/year player. Wow, to put it in perspective Braun is roughly $21 million/year for this season
-
So our opening day left side will be Arcia and Sogard...
-
Wes Helms in as White Sox AAA manager
topper09er replied to bigredrobbo's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
He did seem to be the whipping boy for the Brewer dark ages of the early 2000s. I seem to remember him committing 2 errors on one play which was a nice microcosm of that entire era. However, just when we though he couldn't get be any more hated, he went and hit the go ahead HR to knock the Mets out of the playoffs in the final game at Shea and totally redeemed himself. I was at the final game in 2008, the majority of the stadium stayed to follow the Marlins/Mets game and the Helms dinger got him the loudest cheer of his career from Miller Park. -
They'd never do the 1st piece because showing the full scope of this would be suicide. I totally disagree, the cover-up is always the worst part and eventually it will come out anyways. There will be another Jose Canceso for this who will give names and details of how all the teams involved did something like this.
-
I guess this is ok for this sort of unprecedented thing, but I think going forward the league should clearly state with no exceptions that the official penalty going forward for anyone, players included, for video cheating is a lifetime ban Pete Rose style.
