    You know the Crew is hot when there are 15 posts 21 hours before the game. I think I'm going to make the trip tomorrow. Any attendence predictions? I figure I should have no problem getting a choice seat. This will be game #5 (6 if you count the Cleveland/Angels opener) which is never bad for a guy from Madison.

    I think Sheets is getting frustrated about that lifetime W-L record. Terrible run support in the past, coupled with a 2-2 record while the Crew has the best record in baseball has to be tough. Hardcore fans understand that W-L record is not telling of how good a pitcher he is, but most casual fans use that W-L record as the barrometer. Sheets wants that Johan-esque W-L record, and he's been unable to get it. That could frustrate anyone. BUT, in more cheerful news, we're 21-10

    + 22 the last four days. How about we span that stat out for the rest of the season and see what we come up with?

    Great win, great series. Too bad there is no Brewer game tonight. Ah, but there is. When you are in first place every game played by the teams behind you becomes "a Brewer game"

    Doug Davis pitching a gem right now. 6 IP 4 H 1 BB 6 K 1 R 0 ER However, losing 1-0 in the 7th

    This game looks so good on paper, but I know that can end up being deceiving. Players whose debuts I've been to who fell off/got injured after promising starts: Anthony Reyes Zach Duke Brandon McCarthy (first start) Francisco Liriano (first start)

    As a Cub, Girardi announced to the fans at Wrigley Field that the game on June 22, 2002 versus the Cardinals had been canceled, though he did not announce that the cancellation was prompted by Darryl Kile's passing. Girardi tearfully gave the news at 3:37 p.m. EST, broadcast nationally on FOX: "I thank you for your patience. We regret to inform you because of a tragedy in the Cardinal family, the commissioner has canceled the game today. Please be respectful. You will find out eventually what has happened, and I ask that you say a prayer for the St. Louis Cardinals' family". I still remember that. Joe Girardi was one of the (very) few Cubs that I could ever stomach.

    I bet he wanted them all fresh for the ESPN game. Not a great excuse, but may be true.

    The whole situation is sad, but I don't feel that posters should feel selfish for caring about baseball or a Brewers win. In my opinion, one of the worst things to do when something like this happens is to stop being who you are. There is no reason to apologize for being a Brewer fan or a baseball fan. That is who you/I/we are, and tragedies cannot really change that unless you let them. Have class for the Cardinals, but it is okay to care about baseball. I would never demand that anyone stop caring about the sport over me and, though I obviously never knew him, I doubt that Mr. Hancock would have ever asked people to stop caring because of him. I am a Brewers fan and I will act accordingly. I don't have any shame in feeling that this is more of a tribute than mournful lamentation ever could be.

    Are we sure that Looper is going to pitch and not Kip Wells who was scheduled to pitch today?
  14. UeckerAddict
    The surest way for the crew to lose is for people to post how favorable the pitching matchups are, or how beatable the other teams are. Do not be the jinx! I did it for the Houston home series and we went 2-1. I won't touch this next series though. After what the Cardinals have been through the last 24 hours who knows what their mindset will be? I wouldn't dare make a prediction on this series.

    Is anyone else surprised that Ned's throwing CV for 2 innings, considering we may need a long reliever on Tuesday if Ben has a mishap with that groin?

    Lee bats in the heart of the order. Jenkins and Mench bat much lower. Comparing RBI numbers simply isn't fair. I mean, Lee has already had 4 plate appearances with the bases loaded, compared to 0 for Menckins. Who does Lee get to drive in that's so much better than Jenkins and Mench that the comparison is so unfair? Who bats before Lee? Burke, Biggio, Ensberg, and Berkman have all been substandard and Loretta is not starting everyday. I think 30 more At bats hitting 3, 5, 6, and 7 (where Jenkins and Mench have hit this year) is more than ample to compare RBIs. The only thing that nullifies it is that it's only April and, as I was responding to"Point Doug Melvin," that would also make Lee's OBP nugatory in this instance.
  17. UeckerAddict
    Lee .253 21 RI's 5 HR's Menchkins @ .354 17 RBI's, 5 HR's + Cordero Point, Doug Melvin While Menchkins has had a much higher batting average, they also have 30 more ABs because it's not a true platoon. Therefore, I think Caballo's run production numbers are actually worth more here. But hopefully Jenks will have a few RBIs more than him tonight.

    I've got to catch the final bus here in about 10 minutes. If that game would still be going on, I'd sleep in the library. Sorry if I'm overposting, but I'm so psyched over this win. Prince and Carlos. Right this moment they're my favorite people in the world.
  19. UeckerAddict
    everyone but villy? I would doubt Dessens unless it's a true emergency.
  20. UeckerAddict
    No need to pray for rain tomorrow. Suppan's pitching 8 with Cordero closing.
  21. UeckerAddict
    This was one of the top 5 most exciting games that I've watched through Gameday. You took the words out of my mouth.
  22. UeckerAddict
    I had Weaver and Igawa pitching for me today. ....And after that Brewer game, I don't even care........
  23. UeckerAddict
