    To recap, he's not the guy from the "Halloween" movies, nor the veteran (and former Brewer) LH reliever Mike Myers (different spelling). I can't believe that "Austin Powers" is now a journeyman minor league veteran!

    Massbrew, you are correct, I put in the wrong link. It has now been corrected.

    How Greg Kloosterman is reaching out in the community. www.etruth.com/news/story/336537/ Edit: Inserted correct link

    Just curious, anyone know what kind of money these guys make in winter leagues??

    Colby (or anyone else), why is it that a player can continue to negotiate while in JC, but not while attending regular college? To me it's kind of a two-fold answer. 1. It allows the professional teams (which is who MLB looks out for, and should) to have some leverage by saying that a kid who goes back to school basically has to go until after his junior year. 2. It allows 4 year schools a breather with recruiting. They have to compete against pro baseball already, this allows them to not have to compete as much on a year-to-year basis. For JC's, they are only two-year institutions, they have to recruit heavily all the time anyway, it does not affect them nearly as much.

    Of course I'm upset that Davis got hurt, but I'm very excited to see Burba lead off the 2nd.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Unfortunately, this is the type of lineup you have to deal with when you have the lowest payroll in the Major Leagues. It really sucks, but until we start spending money or bringing up our prospects, this is the card we are dealt. True, but you also have to take into account that there are 4 starters missing, plus Ginter, and Grieve has been hurting. Certainly the Brewers lack depth, but there are a lot of teams that would suffer greatly missing that many regulars.

    Game delayed, Uecker says they will be back at 1:55 pm CST. Anyone else hoping for a postponement? Seriously, I don't understand why all the consternation on the lineup. Yost has to work with what he's got, unfortunately it's all crap right now. I can't fault him for throwing something together to try and shake things up, it looks to me like he's going to maybe hit and run and try to put some plays on. Is changing things up really a bad thing at this point?

    I don't know if Travis Teeter is any good or not, but he sure has a fun name to say, in a Beavis & Butthead kind of way.

    Okay, I know Branyan is all or nothing, I know he Ks too much, and I know he isn't nearly as good as he has played so far for the Brewers, but..... he sure can hit the ball a long way. He's the one guy who's at bat I don't want to miss because he might hit one 5 miles.

    FYI, Childers no-no lasted 6 1/3 innings. He gave up a walk, then a run-scoring double. Indy now down 1-0 into the 9th. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif
  12. deeswan
    Although Yost surprises me regularly, my guess is that he would have pinch hit for Sheets in the top of the inning if the Brewers had put some guys on base. They didn't, so let him pitch the top of this inning, then lead off with a pinch hitter in the top of the 7th.
  13. deeswan
    Sorry about posting this in the Brewer game thread, but I thought it should be noted that Indy has no-hit the Columbus Clippers through 5 innings. This according to Sportsnetwork. I'm not listening so I don't know if Childers is still in. EDIT: Now no-hit through 6.

    You know, maybe I should just be happy that Durrington didn't start at 2nd over Hall today. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  15. deeswan
    Okay, I have been a big fan of Yost from the day they hired him, but........ HOW THE #%$%*&@#$*&%$ DOES HELMS START TODAY OVER BRANYAN?!?!?!?!?!? When I saw that I actually threw up in my mouth. Are you kidding me? Look, I don't think Branyan is a savior or anything like that, but doesn't he give the team the best chance to win right now? He only went 3 - for - 5 last night with 2 XBHs. And has played well at 3rd. Sure, sit him, that makes a lot of sense.

    the sad thing is that will justify GB playing the rest of the season. Are you implying that a man who just singled to raise his OPS to .255 for the month doesn't deserve to play?

    Erickson for NYM, 3 ER in 1st inning So is 36 young, or is Erickson a young 36?
  18. deeswan
    Well, at least he hasn't walked anybody. 30 pitches to face 9 batters, and a 2/1strike to ball ratio.
  19. deeswan
    Has anyone else checked out Hendrickson's picture on MLB Gameday? Judging from the picture, he could be pitching poorly because he is a corpse.

    Melvin needs to get Obermueller back up here now!!!
  21. deeswan
    As of now, who do we have? Ben Ford? Matt Childers? Dan Reichert? None may be good options right now, but Reichert was darn near unhittable until shortly after the trade of Childers. It seems a bit of bad fortune that Reichert is now showing that he's human and Ford seems to have used all his good innings up in spring training.

    Doubles? Nice to see Prince and Rickie tear the cover off the ball. Nice to see them getting outta the slump. But Prince is in there to hit them OVER the fence, not OFF the fence. So 3-for-3 with 2 doubles and a walk isn't good enough?
  23. deeswan
    Can't find a box, but Prince did homer to open the scoring for the west.

    Is anyone else worried that we are going to Pittsburgh after sweeping our last opponent? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

    Anybody have any idea why Salome has not played yet?
