  1. Had #0 Franklin Stubbs been included in that poll I might have been inclined to pick up my phone and vote for him.
  2. Counsell makes me laugh. There was absolutely no effort on his part to get out of the way of that pitch. That's gritty.
  3. I almost don't care what happens the rest of the game. I love that Prince just stole a base off of Russell Martin.
  4. There is a game tonight. I'll see if I can find the lineup. hawings on it!
  5. Yeah, that second pitch to Hardy in the top half of the inning was one of the worst called strikes I've seen this year. It ended up 4 inches off the ground when Martin caught it.
  6. In 21 games that Yovani has started this year, the Brewers have scored more than 4 runs 8 times. edit: .....and in 3 of those 8 games the Brewers scored 5 runs.
  7. It's the second inning. Yovanni is on the mound. I'm still optomistic. Also, I planned my evening around this game, so I can't turn it off.
  8. http://images.yuku.com/image/pjpeg/fdc35bbc9f77837e63dccade324a7edc81c30e9.pjpg
  9. This is either the beginning of the end, or the turn around point. This game will definitely be remembered.
  10. ...and I'm pretty sure the Nats want to lose for the sake of another #1 draft pick.
  11. While Parra was compiling his 7.52 ERA before he got sent down to AAA, Jason Kendall was catching all of his games. After he came back up, Rivera caught the two games in which he gave up 0 ER and 1 ER. Now Kendall is back behind the plate for Parra. I'm not suggesting that there is any kind of correlation, since Kendall caught some of Parra's better games last year, but maybe he is a little more comfortable with Rivera.
  12. The amount of ground that DeWayne Wise covered to run that ball down in the ninth inning was pretty impressive. Congrats to Buehrle. It seems like Buehrle's style of pitching is conducive to no-hitters.
  13. I will be honest and say that my first primal reaction upon reading this story was to go on google and search for more information, but google has a feature where it suggests what you are searching for as you are typing the search word in. I got so far as typing "Erin Andr" and google wanted to finish the search phrase for me as "Erin Andrew's peephole video". It was at that point that I took a step back and realized how perverse the situation was. It's an enormous invasion of privacy and I can't imagine how Erin must feel right now. It's sad that the next time she does a sideline report thousands of fans watching are going to be reminded of the video. I hope whoever is responsible gets what's coming.
  14. CHEESHD will make it obvious where you're from.
  15. The Pirates must have stolen the sign to get Hardy there. And it seems to me like Hardy hits 75% of his balls in 2 places; groundball to SS or pop-up to the 2B. I'd like to see a spray chart for him.
  16. My bad, brewerdude, I missed the recap. Oh Bill Hall, you break my heart.
  17. I was watching the Phillies game earlier and Ibanez hit his 25th HR today. I think BA has the stats as of this morning.
  18. Can anyone provide a status update for this game getting played?
  19. Wow. Someday I would like to wake up in France to the Brewers winning 4-1 in the top of the 8th inning.
  20. Oh my God! About 2 hours ago, I decided to turn the lights out and take a little nap. I completely forgot that I had MLB.TV still on on my computer and suddenly out of the darkness Brian Anderson starts yelling at me. I shot straight up off of my couch wondering where I was and why the Brewers were on my computer.
  21. The problem with that is it only measures the outcome of the at-bat, instead of whether or not the batter actually got better pitches to hit, which is really the definition of protection. Having an all-star bat behind you forces a pitcher to throw you more strikes. Gamel or Cameron not hitting those pitches has nothing to do with them being pitches in the strike zone or not. Here is an article supporting protection.
  22. How so? For instance: when the Dodgers have Eithier in the lineup ahead of Manny Ramirez, his number are much better than when he is lower in the lineup. Also, you often hear managers say, "Well we were forced to pitch to player X with player Y on deck". Clearly there is an effort to pitch to a weaker hitter with an all-star on deck, right? EDIT: Cameron may have a better OBP than Gamel this year, but I don't think that's fair to Gamel since he has a very small sample of major league PAs. Cameron's lifetime OBP is .341, which is much lower than the .369 he's put up so far this year. Also, for reference Gamel is seeing 4.4 pitches/plate appearance this year compared to Cameron's 4.0 P/PA.
  23. Swapping Gamel and Cameron would take away the lefty behind Prince and give Gamel some good protection. Really I'm just happy Kendall is out of the leadoff spot.
