  1. Ken Rosenthal is reporting that John Gibbons has been fired and replaced by Cito Gaston. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/8266320?MSNHPHMA
  2. Another quality start for Alex Periard. Unfortunately 2 solo homers allowed and no run support. 6 IP, 2 ER, 0 BB, 7 K. 4th straight quality start for Alex.
  3. It already was a save situation when Villanueva was brought in. If Villy closes out the game pitching the 7th, 8th and 9th, he earns the save. It happened last season for Villy and Shouse I believe.
  4. 6th round selection - Jose Duran - SS from Texas A&M http://www.aggieathletics.com/bios.php?SID=MBA&PID=8163&YOS=2008 Some good bloodlines as his older brother is in the Texas Ranger organization.
  5. Putnam just went to Cleveland in the 5th round. I know there were some recent injury concerns that may have led to the drop in draft positon. I have no idea on Thames.
  6. Some of Maverick's stats. http://www.maxpreps.com/FanPages/Player.mxp/AreaID-1d347305-8b34-458d-a2c2-48361fc96266/AthleteID-e85ddb70-46e0-4f22-a895-4e9a69d53ff8/SchoolID-4cbe0876-94ab-4d4f-8bc1-85b449dff4e8/Boys_Varsity_Baseball_Spring_07-08/Arizona MILB draft report. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/events/draft_report/y2008/index.jsp?mc=lasker
  7. Maverick Lasker Right handed high school pitcher. Maverick? I'll stop before I begin quoting from Top Gun.
  8. Some quick info on Josh Romanski http://usdtoreros.cstv.com/sports/m-basebl/mtt/romanski_josh00.html http://www.sandiego.edu/publications/usdmagazine/summer2006/athletics1.php http://www.knucklecurve.com/romanski-tosses-no-hitter/

  13. ESPN stated he was announced as a 3rd baseman.
  14. Really like the pick. Team Canada strikes again! Announced as a catcher as well.
  15. I believe you're right. Nice catch!! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  16. I took vacation days tomorrow and Friday!
  17. Just your usual 15 run 21 hit game from the Huntsville (Super)Stars!
  18. Alcides Escobar was in the 2007 game. Could we see Matt LaPorta or Mat Gamel for the US team and Taylor Green for the World team?
  19. In honor of Vancouver Canucks defenseman Luc Bourdon who was killed in a motorcycle accident last Thursday.
  20. Lexington Top 2nd Brian Pellegrini strikes out swinging. Russell Dixon singles on a ground ball to second baseman Eric Farris. Steve Brown lines out to right fielder Caleb Gindl. Joe Melton grounds out, shortstop Zelous Wheeler to first baseman Curt Rindal. West Virginia Bottom 5th Zelous Wheeler homers (5) on a fly ball to right field. !!!! Eric Fryer homers (4) on a line drive to left field. !!!! Curt Rindal walks. Scott Houin grounds into double play, shortstop Catlin Everett to second baseman Bryan Brown to first baseman Eric Taylor. Curt Rindal out at 2nd. Eric Farris called out on strikes. In Progress 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E Lexington 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 2 5 0 West Virginia 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 2 7 1 So it is a 5th inning $5,000 winner tonight in West Virginia!!!
  21. Power hold off the Greensboro Grasshoppers to win 5-4. Outside of a 3 run homer in the 8th, great pitching tonight from both Amaury Rivas and Corey Frerichs.
  22. I agree with your sentiment on attendence for the most part, but remember, the final home series this season is against the cubs. I have tried to remain objective toward Yost and the onfield performance. A manager can affect the onfield performance of the team. There have been a couple of recent situations where calls went against the Brewers, the stolen base attempt in Pittsburgh where the ball popped free of the Pirate's third baseman's glove and Cameron was still called out and the home run call this afternoon. These instances could have been situations where Yost could have stood up for his players, blown a gaskett, kicked some dirt, and fired up the team. Showing he would do what he could to affect what goes on between the lines. Instead, he argued mildly, and walked away. Almost like he didn't want to risk a fine for getting tossed because he was worried about future income. Remember, last season the cubs were floundering early on. On June 2nd, Lou Pinella went crazy, kicking his hat around and getting tossed, and subsequently suspended for 4 games. At that time, the cubs were 22-31. They went 16-8 over the next 24 games leading them into the fateful series in Chicago against the Brewers. This is the series where Ramirez homered off of Cordero. I'm not wishing Yost turns into Pinella, but some emotion when you feel the team is getting the short end of the call can influence the way your team responds and plays.
  23. I'm kind of hoping Jeff Weaver does opt out. I would like to see what Steve Hammond or Derek Miller can do at the AAA level.
