Now go after Bautista, nice to face him with the bases empty. Change ops have not gotten any swings and misses yet but the movement is there so thats great -
The team is a complete joke right now, trotting out the league MVP, 3 other MLB players, 2 minor league players, a bodreline minor league CF platoon and the worst player in the league every night. No one can win with that especially when you consider the bullpen is blowing leads (which is partially RR's fault) However, he is still a bad manager. He does not manage anything, everything he does he has predetermined before the game, he never makes any adjustments. The only adjustments he ever makes are forced on him, KRod for Loe and Hairy for McGehee last year. The bullpen is struggling except for 1 guy right now, Parra, yet its going to be KRod 8th Ax 9th NO MATTER WHAT. Even if this team was in first Weeks would stay in the starting lineup all season until we traded for a guy, but since we wont trade for anyone this year Weeks will start 150 games with his .190 ave.

ARam was telling him to throw it there. Also nice throw Weeks, I have been railed here for getting on Weeks for only throwing sidearm but that is a time where it hurt
-
O my god this team is a joke
-
I would love to see RRR like that just once, ever. Well done Nedley
-
Frenchy is gone, nice break for the Royals
-
I guess Im just going to have to get used to 2.5 more years of Ramirez walking down the line on grounders. He may prove to be Melvin's worst move when it is all done since that topic was introduced today
-
0-0 after the first inning, that looks odd. Good job staying with it there Weeks

Sporting News All-Time Brewers by Position
topper09er replied to crossface21's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Bill James called it the worst Cy Young selection of all time. Vuck's best career achievement was leading the league in nose hair as Clu Haywood, not winning the 82 Cy Young on the back of Harvey's Wallbanging offense. -
This is exactly what Grady Little was thinking in '03. And it rightly cost him his job. OK, Im not saying Wolf should have necessarily stayed in, but the problem is RR goes into each game with a predetermined plan and refuses to budge from it no matter that situation dictates. He wants his starter to go 7 and then KRod-Ax. Period, nothing else matters, that is what he is going to do.

How many hangers does Loe need to throw before he is pulled. Didnt Saito get out of one of these jams vs AZ last year? Of course last year everything bounced or way so now Veras will hit the batter with his first pitch
-
Well lets hope for a screwed up bunt DP here. If not they will IBB the bases loaded and then walk in the winning run
-
Come on blue
-
4 pitch walk to Gomez = pull the pitcher
-
For some reason it makes sense that Parra cant grow a real man's beard
-
Just ask the catcher. All MLB managers are idiots, in order to get the job you need to have MLB playing experience thus eliminating 99% of all better qualified candidates.
-
Maybe Weeks should catch for a week, whoever plays there for us rakes this year
-
Wow Weeks just shortened up his swing with 2 strikes, maybe he will start to look like an MLB player again
-
Wolf is probably a 4.5 ERA pitcher these days. After 95 pitches, he's a 5+ ERA pitcher. There is no question that the right move was to pull him. That's what the facts suggest at least. A good manager needs to handle each situation differently, not just use the best "average" move at all times. Maybe most of the time Wolf should be pulled but not every time because he "becomes" a 5+ ERA pitcher after 7 innings. If he is pitching well and not losing speed or location the averages should be thrown out the window.
-
Gomez should run early in this count
-
Did Getz re-touch 2nd? I think we have a double play right now if anyone on our team knew the rules or paid attention
-
"Im concerned with how he is pitching now" Lets use him in a 1 run game
-
Defensive clinic this game
-
Weeks' BA has not been over .180 or under .150 since April
