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

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

I admit it. I'm kind of excited to see the Jeter ceremony. Brewers special assistant Dick Groch is the scout that originally signed him, and he'll be there, so it should be pretty cool. As much as people hate the Yankees, I find it very hard to dislike guys like Jeter and Rivera, who spent their whole careers as Yankees.

I've got CC pitching on the 10th according to my 2 MLB apps. That's the day you wanted right?

Nope. I have tickets on Sunday. :( (I do get to see the Jeter thing, though, so that's cool)

I will be sorely disappointed if he receives anything less than a rousing standing ovation on Saturday night.

I'm not sure I'd give CC a rousing standing ovation, but I'd definitely clap and show appreciation/respect.


Hope we light him up though.

I'll allow him to hit a home run if the Brewers win. That would be fantastic.

Carlos Gomez is on the cover of SI this week. And he left last night's game with a sore back. Yippee.

Not in the lineup tonight. Would be a nice time to start that suspension. ;)

:D And that's exactly what he's doing...

ANOTHER walk off win?!? This team is going to give me a heart attack.

But I'm certainly enjoying it. :D

I think they should start paying me to go. :)

Fun game. Yo was definitely not at his best, but they got some key double plays, and Mark Reynolds, holy cow. I didn't think he was even going to get one out after that ball knocked him over, but they got two.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

What a rough past five days. Losing two games to the Cubs, and struggling hard to the Braves tonight. :mad: :(
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

What's going on in Milwaukee? Are they trying to make a run at a pennant, or are the building for the future with Wang?
They can't do both.
S.O.B.!!! Same Old Brewers!!!

Wang's only been used in "lost" games I've noticed. I think part of it is because he's stuck on the MLB roster, unless the Brewers risk losing him on waivers and/or his return to the Pirates organization.

To my, simplistic, eyes, it appears the team is trying a little too hard. Gomez looks like he's swinging for a bases empty grand slam, Braun was popping up trying to get under pitches to go yard, Weeks looked like... well... Rickie Weeks of old.

Just need to get back to what was winning them games earlier. Small ball, make the routine plays. Gotta calm down.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Maybe I need to quit letting my wife watch MLB.tv. :o We watched the first two games together and had the Sports South feed on.

Tonight, she's at work, and I worked late so I listened to the game on XM on the drive home. Nice rebound game for the Crew, would be nice to see them salvage a series split tomorrow.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Now that was just embarrassing.

Braun left the game with tightness in his side. Gomez didn't start with tightness in his back. Have not heard updates.

Just noticed Sunday's matchup in Miami is Yo vs.... Randy Wolf! Yes, really. His first start since 2012.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Jimmy Nelson starting for Yo tomorrow.
 
Re: 2013 Milwaukee Brewers - Cheaters, Underachievers and Disappointments Oh My!

Yo pinch hits a double to win the game in the 10th for the Crew tonight!

What a wild game.

No...the Wild were eliminated.....HA!!! Man, I'm glad my lack of sleep has not robbed me of my hilarity. But yes...good ending. He almost went yard with that one.

:D

The phrase #PitchersRake was trending last night. Also saw a tweet that said: "Should have pitched around Yo. Bad managing by the Orioles."
