  1. At-Bat letting me watch PHI@WAS right now on the iphone. Quality is quite good, better than I would expect on AT&T's network.
  2. Stuck at work for the first time in a decade on Opening Day. I'm not sure I can let this happen again.
  3. What's the infatuation with Stetter? I think he earned the infatuation when he struck out 15 consecutive batters last year. He looks awful so far this year, but good thing his ERA is still 0.00. I predict we will have a "What's wrong with Stetter" thread before too long, especially if Macha continues to leave him out there for an inning at a time while facing multiple RH batters. Braddock is up before the All-Star break.
  4. Loge Diamond Box, 2 tickets together, front row. I had to let them go because I can't go. I'm not sure why I just did that to myself.
  5. I would love to see .296/.375/.538 (Jenkins at 28) from Hart this year. But since these two are not really that comparable offensively (or defensively for that matter), I don't think he will get close. Anything around an .800 OPS will be acceptable for me. If he can hover around that, I will stay off his back for now. 750 - 760 will not cut it however, not in RF I'm afraid.
  6. Its obvious Hart needs to branch out and expand his musical horizons to something other than horrible music. This would also help him see better.
  7. COL - 2-1 STL - 1-2 @ CHC - 1-2 @ WSH - 2-1 @PIT - 1-2 CHC - 1-2 PIT - 3-0 SD - 1-1 12-11 4HRs + 6 SVs + 8 SBs = 18
  8. Its all risk vs. reward. The longer you wait to sign the bigger the risk you are taking on as a player. Likewise, the earlier you sign a player, the bigger the risk you are taking on as an organization. Braun didn't leave money on the table. He signed a market deal at a time where he felt comfortable with his risk tolerance, and the club did the same. Looking at this stuff 4 years down the road is moot. I KNOW Braun is smart enough to understand when and why he signed the contract, and will remember that reason. The what if game is really fun though. What IF Braun would have been injured the past two years, and only played in 60 games total. WOW, says all the fans and media, he sure ripped the Brewers on that deal.
  9. Yeah, Narveson didn't have quite as many three pitch at bats as I would have liked.
  10. I agree. I don't see how Hart will come close to earning his paycheck this year, and since its not 100% guaranteed why not let him go? I just see the whole thing getting ugly, because he's looked awful this entire spring.
  11. Was it intentional? I mean Sanchez doesn't exactly have superior command. I believe he struck out 11 batters. I doubt it was intentional, but both benches were warned right after the pitch. I still say its Brewers -1 right now, and they should even that up at home in July.
  12. I'm rather furious right now. The Crew better be Giant hunting come July, and they better be doing it early on.
  13. I don't think it's that far fetched to think that somewhere in the back of his mind he wonders if he could have done better with that contract. If you are referring to the human condition, and our tendency to second guess the decisions that affect our lives, then I suppose he would have those thoughts. Do I regret taking the airport spur this morning? Absolutely, but I am not going to blame the DOT for the miserable experience. To suggest these thoughts and second guessing will translate into malcontent is a whole other issue, and an issue that Witrado and others want to dig up. What is a reporter's job? To report I imagine. It shouldn't be to create the drama to advance a career or sell newspapers, which is what I think some of them do regularly.
  14. 76-86 (and a rain out game that, if played, takes us to 76-87) When did they add a 163rd game to the schedule?
  15. Most notably, Rickey Henderson back in the 80s. How many CBAs ago was that, and is it even still relevant to today's players?
  16. Do you honestly expect Braun to say anything differently? I wouldn't expect him to, because Ryan Braun is THE man. But he absolutely COULD say something different (Sheff, Bradley, etc). I am very glad he is Ryan Braun, and not some other tool that doesn't understand his place in baseball. It was a fair contract when he signed it, and I have every belief that Ryan will think its a fair deal throughout the contract. Witrado is trying to stir the pot and create something out of nothing. He's the guy that spreads rumors and his opinions in an effort to create drama (you know the type). I just wish he would report on baseball, and leave his boredom out of it. Also, Ellerson is entertaining. Why not leave it at that and not get so worked up over what he says. Its not like he is perpetuating lies and agendas on the radio like many other talk radio show hosts do to garner ratings.
  17. I'm not sure what the question is... Is Corey Hart flaming out?
  18. If Suppan blows up again today, the bold move would be to cut him loose. It would send a strong message to the baseball world that the Brewers are serious about winning, no matter the cost.
  19. If Suppan is trotted out to the mound at Miller Park this year, it is almost a certainty he will be booed at one point or another during that time.
  20. What I'd like and what I think will happen are two different things. Someone once told me I am letting my personal bias affect what I think is going to happen. Scouts, sports writers, and internet posters everywhere are all letting their personal bias (belief that Suppan is done as an MLB pitcher), affect what they think is going to happen (Suppan being thrust into the rotation to start the year). We all just need to think this through logically (DOUG), and make the decision that benefits the team the most.
