  1. Would have been nice to go for the win there. I think people would complain less about Moeller being on the roster if he was pinch hit for in key spots.
  2. Andy Kendigh on CH. 12 show some footage of Tony Butler signing with the Mariners today. His lead in went something like this, I'm paraphrasing, "Tony Butler signs with the mariners today in Oak Creek. The leftie is looking forward to making the brewers regret not picking him in the draft." And then they interview Butler and he states, "Yeah it would have been great to sign with the brewers, the home town team, but now I'm just interesting in proving they made a mistake in signing that guy, I'm not going to say his name, the shortstop." Is it just me or is this kid on another planet here. First, from everything I've read/heard the brewers were going to take him in the 3rd round, if he fell a few more spots, and they were very disappointed when the mariners took him before them. Second, Butler wasn't even picked in the second round, he was picked in the 3rd round, so if the brewers had taken him it's clear it would have been a reach. Why be mad at the brewers, be mad at every other major league team that didn't take you in the second round, inlcuding the Mariners. Maybe i'm making a mountain out of a molehill, but the guy was talking like he was Reggie Bush getting passed up by the Texans. You're a 3rd round pick in a weak draft year. Come down to earth pal.
  3. Give em the heater ricky. He's gonna hang a breaker.
  4. T-bow's our closer and Kolb threw 2 innings yesterday. Other than that, great idea.
  5. Capellean and Kolb both threw multiple innings. That leaves us with Wise, who can't throw multiple days and turnbow as our only reliable bullpen arms. So yes, you don't want to wear down the bullpen by bringing them in too early.
  6. This is why Ned Yost is the manager, and not some yahoo fan. Yost realizes he needs to give his bullpen a rest after Sunday's game in which they threw a ton of innings, and Jackson wasn't getting his brains beat out, ala Eveland or Hendrickson.
  7. Solid start. 10 hits given up is a bit worrying, but a solid start overall.
  8. He's a battler, he's a gamer. He's right up Yost's alley. Do we have our new 4th starter until Helling comes back?
  9. He's got some great ground ball/fly ball ratios going. 6 ground ball outs and 2 flyball outs, with 1 k. I like to see that. As good as the brewer's staff is, it seems they are somewhat fly ball oriented. Just wondering, how is a linout to a infielder considered? Is that a flyball or is it not taken into that equation?
  10. You know, I think even if he doesn't dive, there's a good chance that gets by him anyway for a triple. That ball was smoked. Perhaps he took a bad angle to the ball, but I think that would have been extra bases no matter what.
  11. Does JJ look like he's struggling a little bit running the bases? I know he's not the fastest guy out there, but it looked like he was laboring a little bit.
  12. That was the Robin Yount dive to preserve the no-hitter dive right there.
  13. Guys on the TV theorized that he missed ST time and that this was his dead arm start, that most starters have at the end of ST. So no worries on my part until he has 3 starts in a row like this one.
  14. Maybe it's the leadoff spot. Maybe we should bat the pitcher leadoff.
  15. Makes a mistake or two in the field and tries to do too much on the bathpaths? He should sit next game.
  16. I think the brewers do plenty of things to make the stadium kid friendly. MP has play areas for kids, there is the minor league field outside the stadium, the kids can run the bases after certain games, and I believe every sunday a 9 kids run out onto the field for the player introductions. The brewers do plenty to market to families. They don't need to have the kids do the announcing. There are other baseball fans out there that don't particularly care about kids, they came to see and here a professional baseball game, not go to Chuck E. Cheese.
  17. I think kids have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the game whether it's running the bases after the game or getting an autograph on the field prior to the game. I don't see why we need to have them do the announcing. I've been to many professional sporting events in the state, Packers, Bucks and Brewers games, and the brewers are the only team to use kids as announcers. Just don't see the need.
  18. I went to plenty of baseball games at County stadium and I didn't need to be announcing or anything else, I enjoyed just watching the game. Don't see why kids today need to be catered to such a degree. i'm not a grinch just like my games to be professionally played and announced.
  19. Back from the game. Great game, you have to be excited about the brewers, there are no negatvies at this point for true believers. The new stadium looks great. The picnic area looks cool, I can see why it sold out. The ribbon boards are cool too. The out of town scoreboard needs to focus on NL scores more, and it would be nice if more NL info was brough up on the big board between innings. Also, boo- sandy Max. She sucks. As usual. Get rid of her and all baseball fans would be happy. Also, get rid of the little kids doing the anouncing in the 4th inning. Don't need that either. Just give me a professional announcer. Everything else was great.
  20. Pitch around to get to prince. Oh, no. Don't do that.
