    nice to see mench keeping pace by homering before drawing his first unintentional walk.

    has gary darling worked a game braun has played in yet?
  6. djoctagone
    he has 37 strikeouts and a .81 whip in 26 innings. the brewers have one spot remaining on their 40-man for purchased contracts.

    i'll have the opportunity to witness firsthand one week from tonite. i may have to change the subject to "how bad is rfk stadium and its baseball team?"

    my mom is going with 39 other racinians to today's game. i assume they are all brewers fans.

    the home plate umpire at today's game disagrees with you . . . so much that he ejected the big hurt in the 9th.

    willie randolph is electing to have surgery on his right shoulder during the all-star break. could ned yost become his replacement?

    if prince fielder can turn it on rounding first on a fly ball and score on his own leg power, imagine what anyone else can do. the reason fielder turned the speed on rounding first in that oh so memorable game was because he saw that lew ford was not positioned anywhere near the ball. had bill hall turned on the speed from the moment he hit the ball, he would have increased his chances of reaching third with only one out. of course, that would have been dependent on carlos lee doing an even worse job in left . . . but that's something you have to anticipate with a fielder like lee. save your admiration for yourself with your tivo'd "young and the restless", billy hall. run them all out.

    reported on mlb.com today: as mentioned earlier, vote totals have been from online voting only. if voting at miller park has indeed been brewers-centric, prince fielder should win easily . . . with j.j. hardy having an outside chance to win the starting nod.

    let me start off by stating i follow the brewers via gameday audio or on the brewers radio network. my exposure to brian anderson has been very limited. for the most part, it's from watching highlight reels on brewers.com. it may be because i'm only hearing portions of his calls, but he seems to consistently start relaying an exciting hitting feat with the word "and". i realise that in the course of conversation it's appropriate, but i'd rather hear him start off his clause with a proper name (i.e. "fielder"), a verb (i.e. "driven" or "smashed"), or a noun preceded by a common article ("a moonshot!" or "the cover's torn off that one!"). watch the highlights of the past week's games. you'll find that many times, anderson starts off his call with "and". i like to hear the emphasis of the play at hand. "and" tells us that something else is going to happen. "and" is always implied in baseball. there's always going to be an "and" at least up until the second out of the 9th inning, because we know at least one more pitch will be thrown. starting off the call with "and" lessens the intensity of the call. what do you think?

    unless they were counted very recently, i believe the hanging chad ballots haven't been tabulated yet. thus, the figures announced today do not include those ballots.

    while yesterday's game may give you pause to question this thread, the brewers remain second in the league with fewest walks issued [218] and second best in the league with 2.93 walks issued per 9 innings. san diego, by far, remains the best at fewest passes granted.

    i saw two of their three games against the twins a few days ago. i was shocked that a rule 5 draft pluckee from the twins defeated johan santana on saturday. had a home run call not been reversed on sunday, the nationals could've swept the twins. the brewers had better not rest on their laurels (or their priebs, for that matter) when they travel to rfk.

    you can vote 25 times a day? i wasn't aware of that . . . all the more reason to reinforce mlb's policy on this.

    it appears that prince fielder is the only brewer with a likely chance of being voted on to the 2007 all star team. should not the majority of brewerfan.net members update their signatures with a reminder to vote? if i did it correctly, i edited mine. certainly not pretty, but it does inform others that (1) one can vote 25 times and (2) it has a link taking one to the online voting. a signature with nifty graphics that we can all copy and paste into our signatures would be wonderful. can this be implemented?

    third best in the league with 174 walks issued and third best walks-per-nine ratio at 2.85.

    assuming he's still on the oklahoma roster, i look forward to seeing how nelson cruz performs against the sounds in july.

    i'd really welcome posters being mindful of paragraph structures. if your typing exceeds five lines of straight text, it's probably a good idea to hit enter twice and put some space within those thoughts. it makes it a lot easier on the eyes and will entice me to keep reading.
  23. djoctagone
    san diego still dominates with fewest walks in the league, but the brewers are second best with 157 walks issued and 2.79 issued per 9 innings.
  24. djoctagone
    they've fallen a bit, but still are third in the league with 2.85 walks issued per 9 innings.

    it was gary darling. www.jsonline.com/story/in...?id=356089 is darling still an active umpire?
