  1. The Red's TV announcers were just making fun of him for this. Embarrassing.
  2. Go to the main brewerfan.net forum page. The in-game chat is linked in the center of the page there. Great post augie, but for me it's still way to early to throw in the towel. There is so much season left and we have 5 players on the DL right now including Hart, Greinke and Lucroy.
  3. Seriously? McGehee has been fantastic offensively and at least serviceable defensively plus he's under team control through 2014. I would look at upgrading CF, SS, C, 1B, SP, and RP before I started worrying about 3B for next year. And if his knees really start to be a problem we can move him to 1B next year.
  4. There are still 5 innings left in this game and 159 games left in the season.
  5. I just witnessed a triple play from the White Sox/Indians game. Runners on 1st and 2nd for the White Sox with no outs with Alexi Ramirez bunting. He pops it up to the first baseman who throws to first and then to second. Both runners were running with the play.
  6. Kotsay has an OPS of 1.404 in 17 PAs against Arroyo including 2 HRs, but it's still a small sample size and almost all of those at bats took place pre-2006 before Arroyo was a Red. I don't care for Mark Kotsay and I hope he hits 3 HRs this afternoon.
  7. We must have a pretty reliable third string catcher for Roenicke to be able to pinch hit for Nieves.
  8. Someone has to give Almonte some props! 3 more solo HRs and were playing Brewer baseball!
  9. On an unrelated note, the official scorer is represented by Scott Boras too.
  10. The Red's announcers saying that last year Marcum worked to 26 3-0 counts all season long. He already has 5 through 2 innings.
  11. At this rate we'll be lucky to get 4 innings out of Marucum. (Or maybe that's a good thing)
  12. Prince Fielder, close your glove after the ball goes into it.
  13. His velocity seems good, he's just not hitting his spot.
  14. Yes. Don't make the first out at 3rd base Drew Stubbs. Nieves shows why he's starting.
  15. Yikes. I wonder if Marcum is a little bit worked up for his first Brewer start.
  16. It sounds like Marcum is scheduled to throw about 80 pitches. Hopefully he's efficient. There's no way Kotsay is in the lineup today against Wood, right?
  17. 11 games against Pitt, Wash, and Houston. Even without Greinke, I think they'll end up with a winning record.
  18. Every year I come here on April 1st looking for the fake story......except this year. Well done.
  19. And I'm picking Posnanski for writer of the year. What are the odds?
  20. Sad part is, he did. He completely and totally did. It was a horrible call by the Ump calling him safe. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FCI/is_5_65/ai_n26892723/ Phillips was 5 feet from the infield grass when McGehee went to tag him, he then ran on the infield grass to avoid the tag. He should've been out. Anyone else see Jim McKean's explanation on Baseball Tonight? He basically said the Brewers had no argument. He said "well he has no base line believe it or not...there is no base line...you can run wherever you want as long as there's not being a play made on you." I just saw McKean on SportCenter this morning. It was just an abbreviated clip of what he said on BBTN and I don't fully understand his defense of the call or maybe he wasn't defending the call? If a play is not being made on the runner, then the runner can run wherever he wants. This point I understood, but there was a play being made on the Reds runner (Phillips, I think), so doesn't that mean that there is a baseline and if so does the rule above apply?
  21. Kotsay looked like he was running through water trying to chase down flyballs and he looked overmatched in all of his plate appearances. With Morgan on the team there isn't a good reason for him to be in the starting lineup. I am not disappointed in Betancourt yet. He's trimmer than I thought and he made a nice play for groundball. Axford had a hiccup, but his stellar '10 season doesn't have me concerned quite yet. Also, Saito looked really good. His slider/cutter really had the Reds swinging at pitches out of the zone.
  22. Even Yuni with a nice play behind 2nd base on the Votto grounder.
  23. That was a quick inning. Maybe we can stretch Yovani through 7.
