  1. Those last 3 pitches to Albert were just overthrown breaking balls, 81 MPH on all 3 and way high, he didn't follow through on any of them. No one wants to leave breaking stuff high, and those pitches came after missing real high with that fastball. I would guess he was a little bit too excited given the situation.
  2. come on Zach quit overthrowing and just pitch to baseball Jesus.
  3. Wow thank you for the gift strike out, that was inside by a wide margin... even on the replay!
  4. Braddock sure does give up his share of hits, he need that pitch in another 2 inches to saw the bat off.
  5. I think keeping Loe in for the GB would have made more sense personally, you don't have to get a strike out there, you just need a bad swing. Please grab the lead back Brewers, I don't want to see Suppan or Hoffman at all.
  6. I hope we don't end up in extras... we'll be in everybody panic time if that happens.
  7. I don't know that anyone knows, I certainly haven't read anything about Cline's whereabouts last season, we probably won't until AA when there is limited media coverage again. Lawrie really didn't perform like the position players that jumped past HD though, I would term what he did last season as simply holding his own. Like I said he's making them look pretty smart lately pushing that OPS north of .800 as a 20 year old.
  8. Ohh my goodness... I had no faith in Bush once that got to 3-2 count.
  9. Dammit Parra, I walk away for 15 minutes to do something to come back to the bases loaded, Bush pitching, and a run already in.
  10. I'm really not down with trying guys at positions anymore hoping they make it. The team defense is horrible at pretty much every level of the system including MLB. I have a feeling they knew Cline was coming back and that's why Lawrie was bumped all the way to AA, and I wasn't sure that was the best decision, but he's been hitting well over his last 10 games and has that OPS up over .810 now. Lawrie only had Farris in front of him this time last year, Gennett has Cline, Farris, and Lawrie in front of him. Do I think Lawrie sticks at 2nd? No, but not because he couldn't play their, he's a good enough athlete he could play anywhere he wanted. I saw him make some incredibly athletic plays in person for WI last year. I see no reason to push Gennett up as a SS since that position is covered adequately by Escobar, I'd rather they draft another true SS and start the process over again. We have Weeks for at least one more season, we have some capable stop gaps in Farris and Cline, and we have a potential impact bat already at the position. I have feeling this situation will shake itself out as the players progress, there's really no reason to prematurely force anything at this time. For example if Lawrie will buckle down defensively then maybe when Gennett is ready he could slide over 3B allowing Gennett to take over 2B. If Lawrie doesn't improve in the field he'll find himself in the outfield and I like Gennett's upside the best out of the 3 remaining players at that position.
  11. Run Parra as long as you can then go to Braddock to finish whatever is left?
  12. Ha... how about we let the high school kids get a full season in low A before throwing them in AA, there's no reason to rush any of them. Furthermore if Gennett only projects as a league average defender at 2B, how far below average will he be at SS? edit. Corrected grammar and I meant AA
  13. Bucci has the 3rd best ERA in the ML, Heckathorn the 11th.
  14. Kottaras seems to let quite a few balls get through his legs... man that stinks.
  15. I would like the Manny Parra who's pitched to the first 5 batters to show up the rest of the season pls thx.
  16. Well Heckathorn was pretty awesome again today getting the 7 inning complete game giving up no ER. That's his 4th 7IP performance in a row.
  17. Why is it so surprising that it's happening again?
  18. Well then I have no objection to the pick at all, though I reserve the right to whine later of course.. :p but then again, I'm partial to lefties.
  19. has to be close, it was early May and he only gets 30 days
  20. Chris Dennis is a walking calamity. He just ran over Scooter Gennett while both were tracking a pop up, at least Chris held onto the ball for the out and both players appear to be okay.
  21. This audio interview from today offers some insights into the organizational philosophy and prospects Kyle Heckathorn and Jake Odorizzi specifically.
  22. Wisconsin Timber Rattler Pre Game Audio This is a must listen for minor league fans. Chris interviews manager Jeff Isom and Chris really nailed this interview. Chris and Jeff discuss a multitude of topics including the possible promotions of Kyle Heckathorn and Jake Odorizzi.
