    The top of the strike zone is midway between the top of the shoulders and the top of the pants? Really? Seems like anything above the belt is called a ball.

    Didn't Dave Bush have a no hitter into the 8th or 9th and the gave up like 17 runs and we hung on to win like 18-17?

    Don't you mean colon stinks?

    Broxton with 2 more HRs? I'm excited to see him get another shot.

    Apparently you guys are too young to remember the Billy Martin and Earl Weaver (among others) umpire exchanges, they were epic. I was a kid in little league at the time and it didn't affect one bit how I acted towards umpires. If I had pulled any of the stuff they did, I would have been sitting the bench.

    I grew up watching Reggie against the Brewers when he was with the Yankees, so he and Pujols were the first two that came to mind for me. For some reason, Sosa and ARam never entered my mind.

    I don't trade him unless you get a "real" prospect for him, he's too much fun to watch, isn't blocking anyone and is basically free. I know he won't keep this up but I sure am enjoying it.

    I'm sorry man but, reading this thread. The majority of your posts come off as a troll vs a BrewerFan. I don't get the point in any of them for wasting the time to type them. Guerra with the Win. 6IP. You're around 120 posts thus far which would leave me to believe you joined this site heading in to this season. Why if you're going to piss and moan about a team that's clearly in rebuild since a year ago? It's like the absolute worst time to join this site if you were expecting a 90win season talented team. Just ignore him. He's just trying to rile people up, it's what trolls do.

    Was it the one where they were all talking and walking towards the camera?

    A lot of love for his exit velocity, but it has been nearly useless. Not to mention his BABIP is like .380 and he is batting .270 He has some positives, but it sure isn't turning into results. Tough crowd. Coming into the game he had an OBP of .359 and an OPS of .808. He's only 23 and has shown a lot of improvement so far this year. I'm not sure what people expect.

    This is the 3rd game (Giants, Cards were the other two) where they've given up runs to tie and then scored late to win. We also had at least one game against the Pirates where we tacked on late runs to put the game away. In the past, we would have lost the game today, it's anecdotal but we always seemed to score early and then we were done for the game.

    And Thornburg with the well deserved win.

    I remember Yovani being a joy to watch his rookie year. His command was excellent, he was efficient and he was very mature for a young pitcher. I'm not sure if the knee injury changed something but he was never as good as he was early. I didn't look up any statistics, so I guess it's possible that he was never that good but my expectations weren't that high early on and he exceeded them.
  14. hurricanecrush
    Aren't the semi-promising pitcher that you want and the decent pitching prospects that we have many of, the same thing? If we already have many of them, I'd personally rather go for higher upside at a lower level.
  15. hurricanecrush
    No, they weren't, you're welcome to believe that was the case but it simply wasn't true as the Cards blew the Crew away in the NLCS and it wasn't a close series. The run differential was horrendous for a 6 game series. Bad luck? Hardly. They did go 9-9 against the Cardinals in the regular season and outscored them. The Cardinals got hot at the right time.
  16. hurricanecrush
    In your scenario, the force outs would supercede the run scoring and the game would continue. In the article, the ump said: ""First of all, they didn't play the ball. The infielders were leaving the infield. The runner from third touched the plate and the runner from the plate touched first." Essentially, the defense conceded on the play and since the runner touched home and the batter touched first, the rule was satisfied. If I was a runner, I would have still touched the next base, that part is a little weird. Edit: spelling

    So, they're going to pitch him on 3 days rest and go for the number 1 pick? YES!!!
  18. hurricanecrush
    So dumb....we aren't going to be good next season.....go get Reed Isn't that Melvin speak meaning that a trade is imminent? He seemingly does this almost every time before a trade.
  19. hurricanecrush
    Yep edit: I guess I jinxed it.

    I don't understand why experience is that big of a deal. Many people on this site (in this thread even) are pretty confident they could do a better job than our last several managers and I'm pretty sure none of them have MLB coaching experience.
  21. hurricanecrush
    That was a tough draw, Dake and Taylor are both so good and so current, I would guess they are going to win it. I was going to say if Kemp wouldn't have been screwed by the boycott in '80, he may have had a shot since he would have a gold medal and would be more of a household name but I just looked at the results and all of the more current matches won.
  22. hurricanecrush
    The guys that are leaving are Buzz's guys though. If Wojo's guys leave at the same rate, then there may be bigger issues. I'm have a feeling that Wojo's won't have as big of a problem as Buzz did but we will see.
  23. hurricanecrush
    Good call
  24. hurricanecrush
    The thread title is misleading. The article headline states that the Brewers aren't going away, which is different than not going anywhere IMO.
