  1. I have been of of yosts main bashers this year but I'll give him credit tonight. Pinch hitting for weeks was a heck of a move. It might hurt weeks confidence a bit but its not little league, you play to win and Yost did that tonight. Big UPS
  2. Man, I'm really sick of posts in this thread that are all knee-jerk reactions and entirely premature its the vent thread, you're going to find posts like this all throughout the thread. don't read it if you aren't going to like whats in it. When people aren't happy they need a place to vent. and thats what this thread is for.
  3. I have a Gantner for your simmons if you would like to trade?
  4. so, the Brewers are now the Wisconsin Brewers. I have never heard anyone ever refer the Milwaukee Brewers to the Wisconsin Brewers. anyway, it would be really tough to prove that this ball is really a hr ball or just a foul ball. Is there anyway to prove it? probably not huh? I just thought I would share this with everyone because I thought it was really funny...Wisconsin Brewer Ryan Braun. cgi.ebay.com/Wisconsin-Brewer-Ryan-Brauns-Home-Run-Ball_W0QQitemZ330146469835QQihZ014QQcategoryZ27260QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
  5. could cappy be still hurting and not fully healthy? Just wondering because right now he just isn't right. He seems to be walking and falling behind hitters more often than he has in the past.
  6. I have seen, h8bnpor then tonight i saw a vet with IM LATE. I thought that was good.
  7. and, jason, I never said you didn't have a heart. In fact, I never even thought that once. just talking about human nature, and I thought it was directed at me. I don't have a heart though, the lady at the grocery store earlier today, I wanted offed. not really but you know what i mean.
  8. after reading more about the tarp, I'll take back most that I have said on this topic. I'll eat my crow, my words and whatever. I'm wrong for the most part and look like an idiot. I still don't think they will go out there anymore to help out, but in doing so, they might have saved lives. I was wrong, and others in this thread were right.
  9. are you trying to tell me i have no heart because I think they shouldn't have gone out there to help? saving someones life is one thing, going out to hold down a tarp is another. Yes, the tarp was out of control but I don't think they saved someones life last night. I'm looking it from a different point of view. I'd be willing to bet that they won't be doing that ever again.
  10. being in first place at the break is awesome. You can't really have asked for more. It is much better to be chased then to have to track down the front runner.
  11. how would that be any different than Utley or Howard being lost for the year because he got hit by a car while saving a 4-year old kid who ran into the road to chase a soccer ball? huh? thats really not the same thing. There a people that get paid to pull the tarp out. If its the right thing, then why don't they help out every time the tarp gets away from the grounds crew. Its not the first time that the grounds crew has lost control of the tarp. Was it nice of them to help out, yes of course it was. but as an ower of a team that pays out millions of dollars to players, I would tell my team to stay away from it.
  12. short stint on the DL shouldn't make a guy incapable of running a couple bases and pitching. for any pitcher to run the bases in any kind of weather let alone hot weather is bad. No manager wants his pitcher running the bases. They are different than regular players. also he just got done sprinting for a foul ball, then ran the bases. even if I would buy into letting him pitch the next inning (which i'm not) ned still let him rot out there and screw up the rest of the inning. Walking the worst hitter in the league should have thrown up a red flag right away. If by some reason it didn't, giving up a bomb to the next batter should of. He still didn't warm someone up right after that. Its just horrible managing. He continued to let cappy pitch and get him and the team into more trouble.
  13. A long time ago I took the girlfriend that I had at the time golfing. By the second hole, I gave her the 1 wood and told her thats the only club she is going to hit for the rest of the day. I was so annoyed as was she. after that I swore I would never go golfing with a girlfriend again, and haven't since. Its been 12 years now.
  14. I'm going to disagree. The Phils saw fellow human beings in danger, potentially mortal danger the way that tarp was moving and they stepped up. Absolutely the right reaction. Sure, they risked injury, but so did the crew at that point. I think the Phil's actions saved some lives. ok, tell that to the owner of the phils if ryan howard or utley tore their acl and was out for the year because they helped out with the tarp. I agree, they helped maybe save the crew from getting injured just don't think they should. I think saving lives is going a bit far. just my opinion.
  15. that would be cool..I'll give you $20 to cover more of the cost of ticket and whatever bribing you might have to do.
  16. that was pretty crazy. Kind of dangerous too. One of the grounds crew guys went flying. What if one of the players slipped and pulled something or when the tarp started flying it was ripped out of the hands of a player breaking a finger or something. While it was a very nice thing for them to help, and really cool to watch. I think next time the players should stand back and watch.
  17. I know this has nothing to do with cappy, but I didn't know where to put it right now. Has people always been this stat heavy? I mean, until i came to this site I never heard of half the stats that are mentioned. Were all these stats thrown around 10, 20 years ago? I'm asking because truly I don't know. now i need to say something about cappy. he is what he is. isn't that what everyone says about soup? He doesn't have a fastball that he can throw by guys so he has to rely on control. when he doesn't have it and isn't locating he is going to get rocked. I think he is a hard worker and will figure something out. It was just a year ago when people were saying that cappy was our ace. I would say he is a 3 or 4 pitcher.
  18. Grocery stores, always grocery stores. I was in line today, all I had was milk, hotdog buns, and bread. I was walking towards an open lane while this older lady jumps in front of me with a cart. she has it about half full. All her stuff gets scanned then she pulls out her coupons. I swear she has a coupon for everything she bought. Then after she get her total she writes out a check. After she gets all her bagged groceries in her cart she looks over her receipt. The guy starts scanning my stuff then the lady stops him in the middle of it to go over some things on the receipt because she thinks she over paid for freaking onions and potatoes. I swear everytime I go to the grocery store, something happens. either i'm stuck behind a cart full of stuff, the cashier runs out of money, shift change or just something weird.
  19. So a 90 degree day means the starter is only capable of going 4 innings? most of the times no. but this isn't like most other times. Cappy just came off the DL. He only pitched 3 innings in his last start. He had no stamina built up. He got a basehit and was out on the bases for awhile in the heat. He walked that horrible batter because he was dead tired. No mlb pitcher is going to go to his manager and say take me out. That would show a manager you have no guts, and to a guy like ned who wants you to battle, that would be a bad message. So cappy walks the guy, ned comes out to yell at him, but still doesn't get anyone up. Next guy hits one out, still nobody up. By then Cappy can't throw a strike to save his life and Ned is just letting him hang out there. Just horrible. Wise should have been in much sooner than having to face belliard with the bases juiced. The whole situation could have and should have been different. Belliard knows that wise has to throw a strike, sits on the change and crushes it, game over. Ned blew it...Even MLB players get tired and when they get tired they lose command of their pitches. and clearly cappys control was nowhere to be found... just for the record, I wanted Cappy to be PH for. I don't care what the pitch count said, and how that last inning went for him. We were down going into that inning, cappy started losing control the inning before and with that all star break coming up, we could have used the pen.. either way, there were about 20 people in the chat room that were ticked off and there was no excuse for letting cappy rot out there. but hey, thats baseball.
  20. Braun has been amazing. There isn't anything more you can ask from the guy.
  21. cappy pitched really well today. It was his second start off the DL. He didn't go far in the first game and it was crazy hot out today. He should have been pulled much much sooner than he was. Today was on Ned, not cappy.
  22. Why not send Hardy home on that base hit? hardy had to hold to see if that ball was going to be caught. If he would have tried to go home after that he would have been dead.
  23. not sure if Jenks is hurting at all, but come on. Put your best line up on the field, and the Brewers best line up includes Jenkins.
  24. this is true, but being a dead red hitter means you have to swing at the first fastball. Weeks more times than not will let that first fastball by then be down in the count. Which of course then lets the pitcher use breaking pitches. If anything Weeks should be more agressive and swing at the first pitch fastball.
