  1. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/264356574d859b21db949ad52731be4be45bbfc.jpg OMG.
  2. Julian Tavarez may be the guy I hate most in MLB. If the Brewers sign him, I'm running in the other direction.
  3. No disrespect to Mark DiFelice, but I'd rather see Dillard's mid-90's sinker than DiFelice's 83 MPH cutter if the decision came down to keeping one of the two.
  4. I'm sorry, I have to... http://z.about.com/d/politicalhumor/1/0/n/U/moran.jpg
  5. Dillard's fastball velocity by pitch: 95, 94, 96, 95, 95, 90, 96, 96, 94, 91. And the 2-seamer sure had the drop on it as advertised. Suppan's fastball seemed to be clocked about right by mlb.com so I'm assuming Dillard's pitches were clocked about right too.
  6. Dillard was gassing it up there. I had no idea he was throwing consistently in the middle 90's.

  8. Ned Yost just put in Tony Gwynn for Corey Hart. Ned Yost, you've jumped the shark.
  9. Is this some sick cosmic joke? The Nationals? Really?
  10. Gagne placed on the 15-day DL, retroactive to Wednesday.
  11. I think Suppan is more of a crustacean.
  12. My mom is interested in getting a device that does a decent job of both taking videos and taking photos. She's not looking for ultra-high resolution on the photos and doesn't need ultra-high resolution on the video. She's most interested in the video feature so that she can document "in motion" the property she just purchased with her new house, as well as occasional videos to share with her mom, us kids, etc. She's most interested in the photo feature so that she can have a camera when she needs one. She is also big on simplicity. Sound is ok, but not necessary, on the videos and there doesn't have to be fancy zoom/lighting functionality on the camera. Basically, anything that she can point and tape/shoot with as few buttons as possible. She also doesn't want to spend a ton of money on said device. I have a few ideas, but I was wondering if all you tech savvy people have suggestions. Especially if you've had experience buying tech gadgets for non-tech savvy baby boomers. Thanks!
  13. As a vegan, I can attest to the fact that it's very easy to gain weight without traditional proteins. And Prince does look out of shape and out of sorts. I hope for his sake and the team's sake he gets this under control, stat, but if family is any foreshadowing...
  14. It is time to send Bush back to AAA and convert him back into a reliever/closer. I've been one of his supporters through thick and thin and I've had enough with him as a starter.
  15. Hammond will be bumped up soon. He throws 87-92 with a few average offspeed pitches (slider and change-up). I've never been a gigantic fan, but he's certainly a better starting prospect than Narron. I doubt Hammond would be of any use in the Milwaukee rotation until August at the very, very earliest. If the Brewers needed a starter from AAA tomorrow, it would still be Jeff Weaver. He's not pitched that badly, he has just given up a few too many home runs. He is what he is. If the Brewers needed a second starter from AAA tomorrow, it would be Chris Narveson. I was really impressed with Chris this spring and I still believe he's a solid pitching prospect. I'd like him to get a little more confidence in AAA before promoting him, but he's not that far off.
  16. Possibly, but so far this year he's made one start in AAA. Those 52 innings were with Huntsville. X is right... Narron's fastball barely even qualifies as a fastball - middle 80's might be a little generous. From what I'm aware of, he's closer to 82-83. Since he throws his change-up in the low 60's (hence getting good velocity separation) that doesn't matter too much in short appearances, but I have a tough time seeing him succeed as a major league starter because the second time through the order he'd get murdered pretty often. His future as a reliever might be a different story. Most people don't know this, but Narron has made one major league start, in 2002 with the Rangers.
  17. Jeff Suppan pitching after Dave Bush is like... oh, nevermind.
  18. The bird attacked the snake, dude! Wrong way around!
  19. Not only high, not possible after 8 innings.
  20. Kendall needs about another 1000 hits to get into the HoF.
  21. Conor Jackson is pretty bad, and so is Adam LaRoche. They give Fielder a run for his money.
