  1. cordero on year 4 of contract right? i hate the fact that it basicallyt worked out for reds. i hate that in the 3 years so far we've never gotten to him. oh, and i hate wasting a day watching baseball like thi.
  2. It's not just people on brewerfan who think they don't have enough in important spots. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/will-stars-and-scrubs-approach-derail-brewers/ "Even though they are taking a risk by employing Gomez, Betancourt and Lucroy full-time; it doesn’t appear the Brewers are going to allow those players to hold them back in 2011."
  3. Tough to swing and make contact with a broken finger. He's gonna have to sit for awhile. Too bad, hoping he mad some strides. Looks like Nieves and Kottaras? Yikes.
  4. Exactly. I can't remember who plays center for them (Rasmus?) but if they have Holliday and Berkman manning the corner spots?? Yikes. And he is really slowing down with the bat.
  5. Yep, wanted to echo everyone else here. Really appreciate all the work and information made available. Productivity increases two-fold this time of year. Well...maybe not, but the quality of my internet surfing suffers. Thanks again!
  6. I didn't want to start a new thread, but as the self-appointed Guardians of Baseball, it is hilarious that I have NEVER seen Yadier run out a ground ball. NEVER. Ridiculous.
  7. ahhhh!! that 101 makes me nervous! the higher the gun readings the more nervous i get for injuries! especially after strasburg highlighted it and that blog article "the pain of ptiching". what do we know of rogers mechanics? didn't they change his mechanics two years ago which led to the slap lesion or whatever shoulder injury? crossing my fingers.
  8. Thanks P50 contributers for something to look forward to on this horrible Monday!
  9. Did I miss any update on Rogers calling the pitching coach out of the dugout to look at his hand and then coming out of the game? Blisters perhaps??
  10. UGH. As did I.
  11. could someone explain what they see when they call braun a butcher out there? i watch a vast majority of the games and the only thing bothersome that i see about braun is the poor position he puts himself in to make throws. what other problems exist? i guess i don't have a traiend eye..
  12. was that Castro fly ball really at the warning track?? (according to Gameday)
  13. I know this is a minor aspect of the game, but I am frustrated enough to get up off the couch during this Houston day game. Has anyone else noticed the Brewers are distinctly less capable of bunting this year, whether sacrifice or for a hit?? I watch a good amount of the games and my frustration with Carlos Gomez alone is killing me. That's one of the main things he is supposed to bring to the table, along with defense! Thrown in Alcides Escobar and possibly even Corey Hart with players who I haven't seen executing bunt for hits. Braun seems to be the only one haha! And our pitchers don't seem to be executing sacrifices very well either. Is this just me??
  14. I skimmed the post looking for mention of it, but didn't see it. Will Ferrell entered the game for Round Rock and threw one pitch. Here's a link to a story with video: http://sports.yahoo.com/m...debut-aft?urn=mlb,239434
  15. WOW! did not see this coming! well, good for the twins. he is a one of a kind player. catcher is more of a premium position than first base....isn't it?? joe mauer's play at catcher is worth more than prince's at first right??
  16. didn't see one so I thought I'd start one. Not that national predictions are that relevant but they can fun/infruriating to check out. I'm not sure if they are out but I did see Baseball Prospectus (via 30 clubs in 30 days) put the Brewers at 77-85, tied for third i think. Seems pretty low. I feel like barring major players going down (weeks, fielder, braun, gallardo), we will be more competitive than that. any others out there?
  17. i am just watching in horror as i know macha is going to insert suppan in that starting rotation. i will yell out for joy if for whatever reason (long relief, DL?, releasing him, etc) he doesn't start. it will be a brutal 3-4 starts before someone gets the balls to pull him.
  18. i found myself thinking the opposite. i've always been a fan of manny's curve and early in the year when kendall was catching him i saw very little of the curve, and a whole lot of the split...which manny had a tendency to leave up in the zone. with rivera recently ive been noticing the curve getting called a lot and the split much more sparingly...where it may be more effective. just my observations.
  19. ehhhh...i think inappropriate, regardless of whether they are true or not. he could at least have worded it better. now you got tension in the locker room. is looper or suppan thinking "i wonder if he is talking about me?" now mcclung is upset and isn't even performing out of the bullpen well. i don't know, they aren't that sensitive but those comments certainly can't help team chemistry. maybe something like "our guys are battling but we aren't getting the results right now. it's always nice to add some quality arms and i'm sure we could find a place for one."
  20. like mariano rivera, i think everyone knows difelice only throws a cutter. now hitting it is the hard part...for some reason/
  21. i know this is on FSN wisconsin but does anyone have any info on whether this will make the Extra Innings package?? PLEASE!
