2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Here's the <a href="http://www.jsonline.com/sports/brewers/brewers-field-at-first-base-led-by-lyle-overbay-mark-reynolds-b99213448z1-247191051.html">first base article</a>.

Roenicke was careful to say that Francisco is still in the picture as well, but it's difficult to imagine a scenario in which he would make the roster along with Reynolds and Overbay.

The article noted that Overbay and Reynolds also played first base together for the Yankees after Teixeira's injury.

First Cactus League game today. But the question on everyone's mind - is Hank in game shape? :p

edit: ohhhh.. Hank didn't make the trip. Hopefully he's not injured already.

Gorzelanny will start the season on the DL, as they're working him in slowly after offseason surgery.

MLB Network had the "30 teams in 30 days" last week for the Brewers - general consensus was third or fourth, behind STL, Cincy and maybe Pittsburgh, and around .500. Sounds about right.

17 days.

Since Braun is back, is it forgive and forget for Brewers fans? or would they prefer he wasn't there?

Forgive maybe, forget no (although time has made me slightly less angry). There's nothing he can do about the past now, except move on. He's not going anywhere, so I guess we're required to hope he does well for the sake of the team. Should be interesting to hear the reception at home. He's still an incredibly talented player (we assume). I don't think the position change will affect him, and I don't think negative reaction from fans is going to affect him, either.

You can't make this up: K-Rod's spring debut may be delayed because he stepped on a cactus.

I think I just found my new fantasy team name.

So... can we start a new thread name to try and break the jinx?

:D

Juan Francisco released (hurrah). Zach Duke on roster. Less than one week.

Probably a bad sign: my toddler found an old Braun bobblehead from 2008-ish still in the box. I opened it and was showing her what a bobblehead doll does and...the head fell off.

My Braun bobblehead is under the wet bar sink and not with the others. We'll see if and when it ever comes out.

A couple friends may get some tickets for a game next month, not sure if I wear my Braun jersey or not. :(
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

I'm still debating what to do with my Braun jersey. I just don't know. There's a certain connotation associated with wearing it that I'm not sure I can get over.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Segura questionable for Opening Day. :(
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

SS Jean Segura is a go for Opening Day, batting second. Good news for #Brewers.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Lyle's back!

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Made me smile to hear that when he came up to bat. :)


Had my Buckethead Brigade shirt on yesterday.

Just need El Caballo up next.


really enjoyed those years of building back towards being competitive with Overbay, Jenkins, Sexson, Lee etc...

I included my buckhead brigade shirt in a t-shirt quilt my mother-in-law made for me...fond memories of that era of returning to relevance too.
