Now you can go to third CarGo -
Will be interesting to see who gets the first lefty pinch hit AB between OverTheHillbay, Rizzuto Gennet and Schafer. Ill guess if it is a 2 outs no one on situation it will be Scooty, and if it is an RBI situation it will be Ovy

The stupid $20 MLB At Bat app does not show who is on base when in Live mode. Are you kidding me

This story should be in the Journal Sentinel, nice job

The brewers have played 1139 fewer games than the Astros, but have 511 more HRs

I was talking to a guy I work with and he had never heard of Yogi Berra, I mean like nothing. It would be like if someone said to you "hey, you know about that female professional athlete?" Just no idea. And how many people know that Christy Mathewson threw 3 shutouts in the 1905 world series? I bet like me and 10 other people, tops. I bet Christy Mathewson's own living great grand children dont even know that. And speaking of grand children, did you know that president John Tyler has 2 LIVING grandchildren, who are currently alive. I should post this in the "not things that are bad thread", but Im too lazy right now. I will however probably go look over there soon

Im sitting here hammered in the LAX United Club, and everyone in here has a mac air. Why do people buy these machines, you can get the same things for half the price. Also, do you all feel like you dont actually know anyone in real life who you can talk to about baseball with any real meaning. I mean I am looking at all these people and I guarantee you none of them know who Mel Ott is.

Random MLB News & Discussion 2014
topper09er replied to Warning Track Power's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Do you work for ESPN? Derek Jeter is the most overrated player in the history of sports. There is going to be a lot of talk this summer about if he is the best shortstop of all time, which is rediculous. People will say either he's the 2nd best SS of all-time behind Honus Wagner, or use this type of arguement to say that his winning ability should put him #1. The thing I hate most about him is that he displaced the only player in history who is worthy to challenge Wagner for the top SS spot. The fact that ARod didnt have a full career as a SS, or at least until his mid 30s, is a crime against baseball history. The only thing I like about Jeter is that he had the marbles to pick #2, even Mickey Mantle didnt want to be #6 and follow Babe, Lou and Joe D. He is the last single digit Yankee (they retired Billy's Martin's 1 so I assume they will do the same with Torre's 6). -
Braun Suspended for Remainder of 2013 Season
topper09er replied to trwi7's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
What are you talking about, they are probably getting promoted for this, it is their job to create stories and speculation so ESPN is in the news and all the idiots have material to talk about and "analyze" all day. Look at all the different TV and radio shows they have which NEED new topics EVERY single day, or new details/updates about ongoing stories. The American attention span is about 3-5 seconds long, you can't talk about a story on Friday that broke on Monday without "new" rumors. -
You were thinking of Cricket

Using a completely subjective system, I would categorize Peralta's 17 starts this year as Bad: 9 Average: 4 Good: 4

The 3rd base coach does not ever tell a runner on third what to do, he is standing behind him probably. It is called from the bench and isn't that bad of a call considering the situation. Sedar relays the signals from RR. And it was not "that bad a call considering the situation." It was asinine. With the infield in you are getting thrown at home 9 of 10 times (or more). And if the ball gets past the infield you can walk home. Ed Sedar did not send the runner, RRR did. I'd like to see a stat to back up your 10% success rate at the plate on the contact play. If the infielder has to dive its over and he's safe, if the infielder bobbles it he's safe, if the infielder makes a bad throw he's safe, if the catcher can't handle the throw with his catcher's mitt and mask on he's safe.

The 8th inning taught us swinging away is stupid when you have a chance to score a run without a hit. The infield was back in the 8th inning, Lucroy should have just shortened up and grounded out and took the run.

Betancourt has to be the dumbest player in MLB history. He has no interest whatsoever in changing his approach for anything. Lunge over and ground out there on an outside pitch? How about, try to hit the fricking ball to an outfielder???? What is the point of coaches? How is it that no one can communicate to Betancourt to hit the ball in the air, at least before you have 2 strikes? If Tony La Russa was managing there is no way his player would have grounded out to 3rd there on the first pitch (and Gallardo would have a more regular drinking buddy)

Henderson better come in to face McCutch if Tabata reaches

Segura = stallion

This thread is pretty sad. OK, Pittsburgh has a 20 year playoff drought, but which 2 teams have the longest postseason drought ever? Hint: the 2 teams had 41 year droughts that didn't overlap
-
Nice whack Bianchi

CarGo going oppo. Please just ground out to 2nd Maldy, o wait no chance that will happen
-
way to remove Henderson RRR, you bum
-
So if Henderson had to pitch 20 pitches last inning it would have been ok, but spread them into 2 innings and impossible.

Nice work
