  1. t-bone. How about Coco?
  2. I can not remember a single time last year that every position player on the roster and TWO of our starting pitchers were at least at the Mendoza line. pmg4, just for future reference, I recommend that in the company of Brewers fans, referring to it as the Uecker line. Ueck's career avg=.200
  3. The Cubs radio broadcast made it sound like the game should be played tomorrow. Also, I would expect Sheets to try with Lee what he has with Pujols. He will likely throw some changeups early in the count, so he cannot try to hammer them before Sheets gets in a curveball count. Also, did anyone ever hear what pitches Ben was throwing in his last start. That mystery 90 pitch still baffles me. Every fastball was moving 94-96. His curve and changeup sit in the 81-85 mph range. But what was he throwing 90? It dove down and in to righties. At first I thought it was a changeup with a faulty radar reading. But he had several of them, including one that he struck a righty out looking with. Is this a two seamer? Last year Maddux tried teaching him a cutter, but that would move the opposite way. Was it something like a forkball?
  4. I love that you get the new threads up so fast Woogie. Great job Also interesting to read on brewers.com that Hart was unavailable on Monday night. Like I always say, nearly every time I question a move of Ned's with the bullpen or pinch hitting, I later read that there was a very good reason for it. Once again, the trend continues.
  5. I'm not certain that diving to first is slower. A professional athlete that has practiced it enough and is proficient with sliding wouldn't have to slow down to do so. Plus, an injury and it means that Braun is in the big leagues.
  6. nice quick inning for Suppan. a 6-pitch inning is always nice.
  7. I miss having Len Kasper in Milwaukee. I always liked his insight and his enthusiasm
  8. I mean how do you leave him in the minors at that point? If there's no opening, there's no opening. It will require Vargas reverting to Dbacks days (but he had decent numbers given that he pitched a lot of game sin Coors and Chase) or someone getting hurt. Theoretically, if no 7th inning man steps up, Bush or Vargas could be moved to that role
  9. wow! We just stole one. Tomorrow we'll come back and own Hill.
  10. What's the record for most pages for a thread on BF.net? there's one way do find out...begin posting pictures of grilled cheeses and cheese sandwiches, and that'll fire up the Brewerfan.net faithful
  11. You guys in the central time zone still hanging in! the question is, will the game be over before MassBrew wakes up?
  12. wow, it's great having range in RF this year. No way Jenkins catches that last year
  13. a walk here won't kill us, but I want Soriano out!
  14. it's too bad that our bullpen is taxed, because otherwise it'd be easy to send down a reliever to call up Rottino until Estrada is healthy
  15. come on Rickie, think single, not homer
  16. man, Dempster didn't go this many innings in many games he started
  17. Hell... If runners are on with less than two outs... Sheets can sacrifice? why do people think Sheets is a bad bunter? The last few seasons he's done very well in getting bunts down.
  18. Do we pinch hit Hart for CV? I would say yes, then you have Turnbow for 2 innings and pray to god we score by that time depends on the situation. I'd want Carlos to go as long as possible. I wonder if Sheets or Cappy is available. If they already threw a pen before the game, then it's doubtful. I know in Houston one year, the Brewers almost brought Haynes in, even though he was scheduled the next day.
  19. He will start to relax a little more and just hit, but you hate to see a bunt attempt there. I actually really liked it. You figure the Cubs are playing deep trying to prevent an extra base hit, but a bunt single and steal would have the same result, and be much easier to achieve.
  20. okay, roll call. Who has a man crush on JJ?
  21. If we can win this one, it'd be the epitomy of stealing a game.
  22. come on Villanueva...need to get through this. I'm worried about Soriano
  23. gotta stop trying to hit a homer. All three of those cuts looked a bit big
  24. time for Weeks to go yard...or a single and steal
