    Program weight of 8 postion players: 1750 Current cumulative BA of 8 position players: 1811 They're hitting their cumulative weight by an average of 7.6 points.

    Here we go. An opportunity to steal something. Make it happen.

    Moeller was always one of those honest effort guys you hope against hope for. Him and Obermueller as the battery in a no-hitter would be Field of Dreams-like.

    5-3 would have been a hell of a lot more interesting. I hate the Reds almost as much as the Cubs, because this is just the kind of game that, over the past 2 or 3 seasons, they would win and the Brewers would lose, if the Brewers were in the lead here. I want this team to be able to win some games that they absolutely do not deserve.

    That 101st pitch in the 5th gets 'em every time.

    If that was stupid, what is continuing to pitch him to Pujols?

    Think it would be great if they had played Mike and the Mechanics "All I Need is a Miracle" as Billy approached the box.

    If the Crew must lose, I'll take the alleged No Hitter Jump Start just like last year. Bottom out the board early and then ride some hot bats for a while.

    So your guy labors through 45 pitches. Maybe needs a bit of a break. Way to work the other guy for 9 pitches, Crew.

    192 .087 .222 .222 .204 That's not an IP address, it's your Brewers hitters 1 through 5.

    Tonight is the end of the Bucks' season. Not only will we non-Milwaukeeans get all the Brewer games, we get the good director back, too.

    Simba kinda reminds me of Anne Boleyn's father on 'The Tudors'. In other news, I've kind of resigned myself to not being able to feel good about innings 7+ this season if the margin is plus/minus3 runs.

    The fat lady isn't singing yet, but with Gross and Dillon in the 2/3 spots and Bush on the bump I don't really know how expectations could have been too high.

    There has to be a Randolph and Mortimer Duke wager joke in this somewhere.

    I almost screamed in terror when it dawned on me that, just prior to the Prince double play, the only real alternatives were Mota, Turnbow and Gagne. Think they have to hold on to Riske in case the thing goes extras, which is why I don't understand why he was up again in the 8th. But, in that situation, you may not get to extras by pitching the other guys. Maybe Miller Park should come up with its own Terror Alert Chart, a la Homeland Security. RIght now, going to the bottom of the 9th, I put the status at Elevated. ANd just like the DHS Chart, I don't know that we'll be going below Elevated any time soon.

    I'm not talking about Melvin in particular. I think he's done a fine job and I'm gald he's in Milwaukee. In the bigger picture though, a team will pick a player high in a draft. Then the player is faulted for not living up to others' expectations, which are assumed to be fair, accurate and reasonable. Isn't it just possible that sometimes the front offices, not the players, are the ones who get it wrong? And, when they do, why are they not subjected to derisive labels like "bust"? I'd like just once to see a headline reading "Dragons GM A Bust", with a quote from a source in the organization that says, "We've followed this guy from high school through college. He did a great job lining up hotels for us with Visalia, but really came into his own in the video room in Pawtucket. We really liked his numbers, intangibles, and grasp of the BABIP stat, but for whatever reason, he never reached his potential. He's just not as smart as everyone thought he was. For the good of the organization we had to let him go."

    I was thinking the same thing. It's not just that he took the year off, though. It's qluite possible the year on the bench in a managerial capacity may have been beneficial in terms of providing insight and focus on some of the things that simplify the game. I'm guessing that is much different and, for a guy with the right mindset, much more beneficial for a guy than a year on the bench in a player capacity.

    Why does nobody ever call the front office a bust?
  19. pebadger
    How many threads have there been over the past two years that compare the current roster to a list that contains N. Figueroa and R. Casanova, and concludes that the Brewers have come a long way? True as it may be, and as little as a single game means in terms of drawing conclusions, games like tonight are about as welcome as a foul tip to the groin.

    Thanks again, whoever made sure the Brewers TV contract took a back seat to the sorry Milwaukee Bucks. If any team should be available on WMLW, the Bucks are a winner.

    My first ever Brewers HD game on FSN. A top notch production, from the TV truck all the way up to the players themselves. Thanks, everyone. I'll cherish this memory forever.

    Nine pitch walks are nice. One of the worst feelings in my life was umping a LL game in which most of the kids on one team were completley overmatched by a kid who went on to pitch at one of the UWs. Poor kids just bailing out in terror and I'm ring'n 'em up.

    Not seeing that, my blood pressure is actually doing pretty well.
  24. pebadger
    Hey , the Bucks are only down 6!
  25. pebadger
    Thanks. Jim and Bob haven't said anything either, so I figured it was just Gameday.
