    Just an unlucky game for the Brewers so far. Zaun has looked bad behind the plate and Gallardo can't get his fastball down, which doesn't help.

    I hope they wouldn't push Gennett to Wisconsin to have him play second base. Marseco, George, Paciorek and Fatse should rotate between 2B and 3B, unless they have some diabolical plan to play Dennis at either of those positions.

    Prince is hurt or otherwise off the field - he only played in one spring training game. Of course, now watch him show up on the Brevard roster. Kentrail Davis is an advanced hitter, so it's not too surprising he'll start with Brevard. I'm with you on Dykstra, though. Surprised not to see him back in Wisconsin.

    Pokorny could have the stuff to be a starter, but he was drafted as a reliever and used as a reliever most of the time last year. He might be used as a closer this year. Robinson has had so many arm problems, the Brewers will almost assuredly never try him as a starter again. And I'm pretty sure Thielbar will be used as a reliever on a staff containing all those other high-upside arms.

    Ten starting pitchers on one staff... neat. Why is Dennis listed as an infielder?
  7. And That
    We will have an official game thread up tomorrow before the game, replete with graphics and whatnot. Please refrain from starting one early tomorrow morning, regardless of how tempting it might be. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Schafer should be with Huntsville once his groin injury heals.
  9. And That
    We don't know what's wrong with Wooten, but IIRC Bramhall had Tommy John surgery over the offseason. He probably won't be back this year.
  10. And That
    Here's McClendon's throwing motion: It's a bit funky, with a short-arm 3/4 throwing motion. He gets a lot of ground balls at times, and to the best of my knowledge throws in the mid 80's. Feel free to correct me on the velocity. From his high H/9 and mediocre K/9, doesn't look like he misses that many bats, though he doesn't walk guys either. Hopefully he emerges as another viable relief option in Nashvile.
  11. And That
    We score 8 runs in an inning and we're losing. What is this? 2009?
  12. And That
    Interesting that they had Fiers go 4 innings, though also as interesting that when he went 4 innings, he only struck out one guy. Haven't seen Josh Prince's name since the first game. Must be an injury - hopefully it's nothing too serious.
  13. And That
    The inclusion of Kelly Shoppach was a nice touch.
  14. And That
    I want another thread about So Taguchi, or at least a thread I think might be about So Taguchi.
  15. And That
    Jake Odorizzi is a pitching monster. He'll be in the top few of the Power 50 by the end of the year.
  16. And That
    I'll have a new projection up tomorrow. I'm having a devil of a time placing all the pitching.
  17. And That
    If you own even one Tool album, if you hear another Tool song, you'll know it is them. If I heard a random song off of Opiate for some reason, I'm sure I could identify it, even though I've never listened to the EP all the way through. Tool is that recognizable. I guess what my point is, they could release music more often and not subject it to the radio. That they are such a great band, I think it's a shame they haven't put out a great record in 14 years.
  18. And That
    I agree with their approach, though I think it's possible to have a non-thrown-together album more often that they release one. 10,000 Days wasn't even really that good, IMO. Unless they release another great album soon, they'll be left with the legacy of having a couple great albums, and a few good albums. I think they're a better band than that, because a lot of decent bands have done that. But they do what they think is best for them, and if that's how they feel comfortable, I don't begrudge them that. Forty-Six & Two is one of the funnest bass riffs to play, ever.
  19. And That
    I don't know much about Puscifer, but I will use this opportunity to say that it's a shame that Tool has been around for coming up on 2 decades and they've released 4 studio LPs. Shouldn't we have a new one pretty soon? I'm going to go listen to Lusk now.
  20. And That
    I'm not too leery of Narveson - the guy used to be as big of prospect as Parra, isn't that much older than Parra, and still throws hard for a lefty. I think he'd be fine as a 5th starter, in fact maybe one of the best 5th starters in the league if he stayed in that spot all season.
  21. And That
    Just watched the latest episode, one of the best hours of TV I've seen. Jacob made it pretty clear that he's not God, at least in the Judeo-Christian sense of the word. The whole Jack Shepard whose father's name is Christian thing I think is a bit of a red herring - I hope the ending isn't as obvious as Jack replacing Jacob (also note the name similarity).
  22. And That
    Today's game was great news for Chris Narveson. Maybe he's still in the hunt for the last spot in the rotation.
  23. And That
    I do not like cheering against our own players. That said, if Suppan goes out and gives up 9 runs in 2 innings, I will not be upset. I agree with Briggs - it seems unlikely to me that the Brewers would carry Parra and Narveson in the pen.
  24. And That
    Not exactly suprising news, but it's news. While it's been mentioned before, it's worth mentioning again - Gamel will accrue service time during his DL stint. Have to think that as soon as he's ready to play, Mat will be optioned to AAA to stop the clock.
  25. And That
    Edmonds has been added to the 40-man roster, per Haudricourt.
