  1. Here's all your details on the broadcasts this year. Personally, I'm more concerned that the Extra Innings package provides such limited HD. Of course, grousing about 15 WMLW non-HD broadcasts is a bit silly when one considers everything going on in the world, but in the limited discussion this focuses on, of course folks will moan some.
  2. Didn't think we could learn more about the scoreboard, but this Rick Schlesinger interviewwas actually even more informative.
  3. I didn't find it that different from past years. There were occasions when the big league Brewers needed to have pitchers throw in AAA (or even AA) games, and thus that pushed others down a level for that day. We kind of indicate every year when the box scores start being released that folks should not read too much into the placements.
  4. Erick Almonte and Jeremy Reed were formally added to the 40-man roster this afternoon (roster now full). Adam M. noticed a nice touch by Doug. Also Hart and Lucroy to the DL, no mention yet of backdating, but they would have to be, you'd think, regardless of projected return dates.
  5. Thanks, brewfan1, we have always respected the Brewers and the front offices of the affiliates in this regard. Assignments (and the unfortunate player releases that come at this time of year) are obviously a time-sensitive and emotion-sensitive issue for all involved. Again this year, we will wait for the press releases from the affiliates, and then we'll kick off our "Your 2011 (affiliate team name)" threads. The minor league and Link Report seasons are just eight days away, and we believe the players board their planes Sunday. Sometimes players are absent from rosters because of DL stints and such, so we need to be mindful of avoiding speculation (not saying that you were). Thanks again for the heads-up. For those who may have "inside info", we will ask that you refrain from posting details without online confirmations from the team sites, etc. It helps us maintain a healthy relationship with the entire Brewers' organization, something we prize and are proud to have maintained all these years.
  6. Not quite for Steve Garrison, Yanks go with Luis Ayala instead...
  7. Being discussed here...
  8. ESPN 540: Two 3/29 Interviews with Tom Haudricourt SI.com's Joe Posnanski (some insight on Greinke / Betancourt before hoops talk begins)
  9. If Brandon Boggs is part of the Nashville outfield, you'll have in the AAA OF mix: Brandon Boggs Brandon Jones Brendan Katin Brett Carroll (OK, it's close on the name) Good luck, Stu Paul, Voice of the Sounds.
  10. Haudricourt: Right-hander Mark Rogers stopped by the Brewers' camp to visit before his scheduled start in Class AAA Nashville's exhibition game. Rogers said he had no recurrence of the shoulder tightness he experienced early in camp and expected to be on Nashville's opening day roster. "I'm starting to feel really good," he said. "Once I get stretched out more, it'll be even better." As for whether he might get an opening day assignment with Nashville, Rogers said, "That would be nice. It depends on how we line up (coming out of camp)."
  11. Jonathan Lucroy makes his WSSP debut Doug Melvin Talks to Tim Allen About the Upcomiong Season
  12. This is encouraging -- LaTroy tweets progess report
  13. Brewers 8, Padres 7 (box) Canadian Jim Henderson closed out Brewers' big league camp with the save, and Max Walla singled to highlight the minor league day on the big league diamond. Matt Cline (0-for-2) and Anderson Machado (0-for-1) also saw action.
  14. Looks good for all three games in the Reds' series (Thursday, Saturday, Sunday). Play ball!
  15. Haudricourt updates Boggs' status -- we'll know if he remains Brewer property Wed. AM
  16. Our Tom Wilhelmsen makes the Mariners' big league roster thread in the Major League Forum Discuss there if you wish...
  17. Absolutely amazing, never pitched above A-Ball. Do you know his story? Here's our post from 2010 when he was added to the Seattle 40-man. Recent audio interview Congrats, Tom! Wish it had been with the Brewers...
  18. It's been fun, but I'm retiring from In Game Thread duty for 2011 -- look for our usual detailed initial posts starting Thursday. And we can't say it enough -- we are looking forward to rockin' regular season chatroom sessions!
  19. Don't forget our In-Game Chat Room (link)! *** MLB.com audio webcast Box score here Gameday can be found here. ON THE MOUND: Also scheduled to pitch this afternoon (subject to change) is RHP Kameron Loe, RHP John Axford, RHP Sean Green and LHP Mitch Stetter. MINOR DETALS: Joining the team today from minor-league camp is INF Matt Cline (90), OF Khris Davis (93), INF Taylor Green (95), INF Anderson Machado (91), INF Josh Prince (92), C Mike Roberts (96), OF Max Walla (94), RHP Jim Henderson (99), LHP Dan Meadows (97) and RHP Roque Mercedes (66).
  20. Memphis Commercial Appeal newspaper: Tennessee safety Brent Brewer has reached a plea agreement and been reinstated to the football team. Brewer was placed on diversion on a misdemeanor charge of offensive touching. The charge will be dismissed if Brewer remains out of trouble for six months.
  21. Actually, and fairly importantly, we can add RHP Andre Lamontagne to the "waiting-to-see" list. Missed earlier...
  22. Welcome aboard, dcbrewers. Not yet on Sunday's boxes, but when ready, they'll be in this thread.
  23. Rotoworld: Shortstop Brandon Hicks and outfielder Matt Young will make the Braves Opening Day roster. They were informed of their fate Sunday morning. Each entered camp as a longshot to make the roster. The defensively versatile Hicks showed improvement at the plate this spring to earn his spot. *** My point being "who?". This is an Atlanta squad set to contend. Is there nashing of teeth over this at Bravesfan.net? Veteran, unproven, all open to interpretation, and of course, over-analysis.
  24. The 2011 commercials are out! (bottom of linked page) Love Prince's this year (again), Nice outtakes
