  1. Matt Clark was discussed in the Minor League thread: viewtopic.php?f=64&t=31583 His home and away splits are pretty high. 900+ OPS at home and 700 on road.
  2. Thanks TLB and thanks for the list Wildcat!

Parra makes a sliding catch into foul territory down the left field line Video of Homerun and Awesome catch: http://milwaukee.brewers.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2014_08_05_sfnmlb_milmlb_1&mode=recap&c_id=mil#gid=2014_08_05_sfnmlb_milmlb_1&mode=video
  3. I hope Rogers turns into something. I always like looking back at the posts from our minor league experts on when he was drafted. In the case of Scooter and Khris, they were drafted in the 16th round and 7th round respectively. But 32 round for Jason? Maybe it was because he was a Junior and some teams thought he would go back for his senior season. Here are some posts (Thanks ColbyJack and MaasHaas) viewtopic.php?p=520062#p520062 viewtopic.php?p=614332#p614332 viewtopic.php?p=614522#p614522
  4. And Manny Parra on to pitch. So at what point does Neshek replace Rosenthal? Hopefully never
  5. Mike Fiers strikes out 14 Date: Aug 14th @ Cubs Video: http://milwaukee.brewers.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2014_08_14_milmlb_chnmlb_1&mode=recap&c_id=chc#gid=2014_08_14_milmlb_chnmlb_1&mode=video IGT: viewtopic.php?f=65&t=31829 Summary : 1. Cubs suck 2. Fiers strikes out 14 would be hitters in 6 innings of work. 4 guys managed to make an out a more traditional way.
  6. Date: Aug 15th @ Dodgers. MLB.com video of 5-run 8th: http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/8879232/v35408123/millad-brewers-take-lead-with-a-fiverun-8th-inning IGT: viewtopic.php?p=913360#p913360 Summary : 1. Brewers face dodgers for the 2nd series in a week. 2. Brewers are lined up to face Greinke / Kershaw 3. Brewers get blanked in game 1 until the 8th inning. 4. The Brewers score 2 runs with one out. (Gennett with an RBI single (Braun scores) and Davis with an RBI double (Ramirez scores)) 5. Mark Reynolds gets intentionally walked 6. Week's strikes out 7. Overbay comes to the plate with the bases loaded and hits a bases clearing double. 8. Brewers win the game. 9. Brewers then beat Kershaw. http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/8877974/v35436735/81614-gallardo-outduels-kershaw-in-32-victory 10. Brewers then sweep the Dodgers. http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/8877974/v35460405/81714-dodgers-get-swept-by-brewers-led-by-lucroy Some great Defense too: Davis - http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/69975292/v35428313/millad-davis-dives-to-rob-gordon-of-a-hit Ramirez - http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/8878756/v35425101/millad-aramis-barehands-grounder-nabs-gordon Gomez - http://m.mlb.com/mil/video/topic/8878756/v35407817/millad-gomez-makes-sliding-catch-robs-kemp Just an amazing series.
  7. Your weekly programming guide Blue Jays (2 Games) @ Brewers, Pirates at Brewers Reds @ Cards, Cards @ Phillies Braves @ Pirates Braves @ Reds for 4 after Reds play the Cards. Other notable series: Giants @ Nationals play a 3 game set next weekend Another awesome slate of games coming up ... Go Brewers!
  8. And with 37 games to go the Brewers have a 5.5 game lead on making the playoffs.
  9. Great write up TooLive .... As for skipping Lohse start. It makes sense. If you count it out, a 5th starter isn't needed until Tuesday August 26th @ SD.
  10. Some guts to stick your hand in the Jean but not a very smart play. He clearly interfered
  11. Am I the only one who thinks that Davis' helmet seems odd. It always seems to be covering his eyes and he has to hold his head up to see out. Like the kid in little league who always picks a helmet that is too big.
  12. I agree. The reds just don't seem to have the horses to squeak into the playoffs. It looks like the Braves are doing their best to not make the playoffs either. They play the A's this weekend and their future isn't looking bright either. Within 2 weeks, this really could boil down to a 6 team race for 5 spots. (LA, WAS, MIL, STL, PIT, SF)
  13. I don't know about that, but I do wonder whether the one size fits all approach is smart. If you're throwing upper-90s, then a 100 pitch cut-off seems reasonable. But someone like Fiers who sits in the low-90s and is more of a command pitcher could probably go a bit further than normal. From what I have read, it really has nothing to do with traditional "fatigue." Where oh, your tired so you should come out. (Think a basketball player dripping with sweat in the 4th quarter.) Injuries to pitchers can occur at a greater frequency when they modify their normal pitching mechanics. This happens at a more subconscious level - it isn't like the pitcher saying I am tired so let me change my arm slot. Fatigue is a factor but managers / pitching coaches should take more of a sport science view of their pitcher in games. If they notice changes in the body, that should alarm them for concern and not some arbitrary number of 100. One can be "fatigued" but his mechanics are still sound thus risk of injury isn't present. Where as another guy can be fatigued in the 3rd inning, and sub consciously making minor mechanical changes which can result in injury. I agree, the arbitrary 100 number seems completely made up.
  14. Hey - how about that. Another hit by Herrera. Sorry Jean, you should be losing some starts.
