You got some proof of that? If this organization is being run based on the "bias of Yost" then I think we should all jump ship right now. Don't you think that Melvin has some say in the roster as well since he is the GM?

The 2003 Brewers managed to win 10 in a row... so yes, bad teams (even terrible teams) can have good runs.

1. No I don't think Dusty is a good manager, if he is given a veteran team where he can plug the players in and go I think he can do a good job but if you want him to work with youngsters and get them in... he isn't your guy. 2. He definitely helped contribute to the demise of Prior and Wood with the amount of abuse their arms took at such a young age, with that said I think it really had to do with plain bad luck with those two. 3. No, there are a few main culprits to them losing in the NLCS. I'd put the blame (and I really shouldn't use blame because it was a really joyous moment in my life) first and foremost on Alex Gonzales for messing up the potential doubleplay. I see no point in blaming Bartman because I've said from the day it happened that there was no way that Alou was going to make that catch... no way at all. I'll have to admit I didn't have cable that year and I really didn't get to see too many baseball games on TV (Listened to Bob and Jim on the radio) so I really can't make a judgment on anything Dusty might have done in the season to specifically prevent the cubs from making the World Series. With that said, I could see Dusty taking some blame for not calming his team down after Alou had his hissyfit in LF and Gonzales messed up the DP... and who knows what he did to get them to relax for Game 7 but they had plenty of chances. 4. No, I wouldn't take Dusty over Yost... but then again I actually like Yost... orca - If you like Dusty for ripping on Cubs fans then you would really love Lee Elia and his tirade. Priceless!

$5 for the normal bobble and $20 for the special bobble or at least that is what he was offering at the last bobblehead giveaway.

According to Baseball-reference.com he came in to pitch the 9th with a one run lead 16 times (3 times in innings 10+), a two run lead 14 times (3 in innings 10+), a three run lead 14 times (1 in innings 10+). He only appeared in 9 games where his team was either down (2 times) or had a lead of 4 or more. He also came into the 9th in a tied game 6 times and appeared in extras three times with the score tied.

it didnt oqrk qour,,, cN a somebody fiz that so it acutall is somewhat readable unlike my oteer opster.. or i amean this one... haooy st, o=patricks day... im drunjk

By the way areacodes, is it bad that only we post on here during the week? no, tfam it is not a bad tind=gs it is a bade of courrage,, riior somethign like that

I wouldn't say that contradict themselves at all... One is saying that he isn't close to pitching in games and will start the season on the DL and the other is saying that he'll be taking a big step (throwing to live hitters, different from pitching in a game) to show he's on the right path but still won't be ready til mid-April (which means he'll probably start the season on the DL). Now the blog report sounds much more optimistic than the injury report but they are saying basically the same things. edit: and apparently I can't read because the original poster said conflicting not contradicting.... whoops

well, i'm drunk and i'm sad and for those conditions the fact that i can type and see what i am typing is damn amazing... well, it was a sad day today and my friends and i saluted #4 as we only know best... start drinking at 2:30... started with beer pong (at which i kicked butt) and we went on from there... drank, drank and had a few more and i'm gonna be headin out for some more... i guarantee that my next post wil not be so easy to read... Thank you for the memories Brett, watching you was a treasure and I'll talk about what you were able to do for the rest of my life... I'll miss you

I've seen those before... I'm pretty sure it was somebody who had rented a porta-potty and just put it on a trailer. Closest thing I could find with a very short google search would be the Bumper Dumper and that doesn't provide too much privacy.

I was so close to catching that ball... I remember tracking it and then realizing that it would be over my head. I watched it rocket off the ad and then bounce off the concourse about 5 ft from me and back onto the field. Ah, memories... and if it makes you feel any better bigredrobbo I've got a homemade Keith Ginter shirt.

That is why they have trees my friend... that is why they have trees.

Capplean was signed by the Rockies a month or so ago.... and wasnt Henderickson traded to the Royals...for a Catcher....or was that the JDLR Yup, he was traded for Maxim St. Pierre who was a catcher from the Royals.

I can get on board with your other points about Yost and his shortcomings but these two don't really do it for me. It has been said by more than one poster that they are pissed at Yost for replacing Braun with Counsell for defense only to have him come up in an important situation later where we would have needed his bat. I just don't get why the hate on this one. We had one of the worst defensive players for their position in MLB history and our fans are ripping on Yost for replacing him so he doesn't cost us a game because of it? It just doesn't make sense to me... I know that Counsell ended up coming up to bat in some critical situations but Yost really had his hands tied in those late game situations with Braun's defense. I also don't understand why Ned is looked at in a negative light for the beanball situation while it was completely ok for LaRussa to act like he did... Is it because we ended up losing a game because of it? I would honestly like to know on this one because I guess I don't see the difference in what LaRussa did to Hart and Fielder earlier in that series and what Yost did to Pujol other than the fact that Turnbow couldn't get out of the inning and the St. Louis pitchers could. Maybe I am missing something about the situation that makes it "inexcusable" and a reason for Nedly to lose his job. Now, with that all said... Unless there are some mega unfortunate incidents that happen to the Brewers this year (Prince and Braun decide they want to open up a ballet studio instead of playing baseball, the arms of the entire pitching staff fall off from infection), this is Yost's last season if we don't make the playoffs and if for some reason we are struggling, be it Yost's fault or just the players not performing, I could see him canned mid-season.

Four pFges deep... I feel so dirty... its likse i've bbben digginn throu crap for a week to find this theard.... samwise and toolivebrew as weel as the rest of the ,ost awesome brewerfan.net team (obviously madison's team) needs to spend more time on this thresad.... this is also a need foor GP to get his ass back on track and supporting the thread he so proudly pimps on his posts... the great author of our thread lets it get to page 4... that is almorst against thew law.... letst go brewers@1!!!
