Random MLB News And Discussion 2012
Schlitz001 replied to RightFieldCoder's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
logan82, I wasn't suggesting that Clenbuterol isn't a banned substance, or that Primatene is not a banned substance. I'm saying that it's not an anabolic steroid and he probably could have gotten a legitimate prescription for something similar. It's a dumb move on his part to get banned for something like this. -

That's too bad. Clenbuterol works similar to epinephrine or ephedrine, which are available OTC as Primatene. It's not a drug you use to bulk up, instead it's used as a bronchodilator. He was using it for "pep" and to breathe easier. I bet he could have got a legitimate prescription for something similar and been OK. Dumb Guillermo. -
Wow, the Brewers have to win now, right?
-
Every RBI I've ever seen Ramirez hit has been a dribbler up the middle or some shallow bloop. I'll take it.

I'm not sure what your definition of "going up the river" is, but I'm pretty sure Bonds never tested positive for steroids under MLB's new drug testing policy, and Ryan Braun has. The only time Bond's showed positive for steroids was in 2000, 3 years prior to MLB implementing a testing policy. Here is what Bonds said in court in 2007 when asked about those results: "So, I guess I got to ask the question again, I mean, did you take steroids? And specifically this test [in November of 2000]. So, I'm going to ask you in the weeks and months leading up to November 2000, were you taking steroids?" Bonds responded, "No." Conte said Thursday evening that he is "very surprised" by the Bonds indictment. He played down any suggestion that the records uncovered at his lab seal the case against baseball's newly crowned home run king. "There is a serious issue regarding a lack of chain of custody," Conte said. "No test result has anybody's name or initials. All steroid test results performed at BALCO were a number only. Now there were different ledgers with initials and different things that are certainly subject to challenge, but there is no type of steroid panel test result with the name Barry Bonds on it." This is eerily similar to what Braun said, denying use and then arguing chain of custody. My point in all of this is that Giants fans who cheered Bonds probably don't have the right to boo Braun without being called hypocritical.
-
It looked pretty bad. When sliding into second, it looked like he sort of hyper-extended his right knee and ankle outward.
-
Oh crap.
-
If the Giants fans boo Braun, does that make them hypocrites or just baseball fans.

I hope Gomez is OK. Looks like a hammy.
-
I think it's more because we are facing a tough righty in Lincecum and it would have made more sense to start Aoki and Morgan. And if you have to start Gomez, he needs to be lower in the order. He just doesn't get on base enough to be hitting #1 or #2.
-
Weeks is a smart hitter. He knows Lincecum can't find the strike zone and he takes his walk.
-
This lineup is so bad that it's going to score 8 runs.
-
As long as there are subjective calls like basketball fouls, football pass interference and baseball check swings, there is always going to be people upset. However, all of the black and white calls would be extremely easy to fix with replay. Can you really say anymore than that? Why is this not happening?

Newman.

Dang Lucroy, looking good this year/

I know there was some discussion in yesterdays IGT about Kemp's amazing April. Dave Cameron wrote a nice piece for fangraphs comparing Kemp's April all-time where he shows that "by wRC+, only Bonds in 2004 was better". Pretty good read. -
I'm probably in the minority, but if Weeks says he's healthy I would start him and let him work through his problems. He's still getting on base at a .320 clip, which is pretty good for someone in a slump. One day off isn't the end of the world, but he's an established major leaguer who has been streaky in the past.
-
I don't know who the Padres color guy is, but he has me rolling on the floor with his Brewer fan analysis, talking about going up to the cottage in Door county and the cheese castle in Racine.
-
Dick Enberg is rooting for Braun to get another AB and hit another HR.
-
I'm not sure Corey could have thrown Maybin out anyway, but I had the same reaction as you when he bobbled that ball.
-
I'm feeling good about Wolf in Petco against the Padres. Now who is this Wieland guy?
-
Ha. I've been trying to trade for Goldschmidt while his price is low and hope he picks it up. I personally think Harper will end up with a better year than Trout. I'm falling in the pile of his hype.
-
Thanks Freese for swinging at ball four.
-
I think Schumaker would have been safe at second if he had slid for the base instead of the fielder. Nice break.
