Game Thread X: Revenge Date

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:11 PM CDT

Former Brewer JDLR for the Royals, Jeff Suppan for the Crew.

Hopefully Jorge pitches the way he has been lately, and hopefully Suppan Doesn't.

Hardy is out of the lineup again, presumably with his sore hip/knee, and for some reason Counsell is in the lineup instead of Graffy; anyone know whats up with that?

Uggh

Suppan does not look good so far

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:15 PM CDT 0 recs

of course

that makes him look better

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:15 PM CDT 0 recs

Oh

Duh- Graffy not playing because the hole that needed to be filled is at short not second...stupid!

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:22 PM CDT 0 recs

why can't you be more like Lloyd Braun!!

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:23 PM CDT 0 recs

i thought he made all those sales...

the phone wasn't even connected

Brewers in 07!

by Michael M on Jun 22, 2007 7:24 PM CDT up 0 recs

He's the one that screwed up the Dinkins campaign

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:25 PM CDT up 0 recs

I thought

name tags for all New Yorkers was a good idea

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 7:28 PM CDT up 0 recs

Am I crazy....

Or is that alot of gum?

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:29 PM CDT up 0 recs

lookout

shades of Jeremy Burnitz there

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:31 PM CDT 0 recs

I know that Weeks

hasn't been very good/healthy this year, but wouldn't you rather have him in the two hole than Counsell right now?

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:43 PM CDT 0 recs

I like it when

the other team makes mistakes

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 7:58 PM CDT 0 recs

at least...

i have gordon in fantasy... but still...

I don't like

this inning

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 8:16 PM CDT 0 recs

crap

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 8:18 PM CDT 0 recs

a hit for mench!

his overlarge head slowed him down, but he was saved by stiffage

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 8:21 PM CDT 0 recs

for straight hits

I've seen DelaRosa with that look before

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 8:24 PM CDT 0 recs

This inning

is looking a lot better.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 8:26 PM CDT 0 recs

I enjoy my man crush

Braun is awesome

That's not the Chirizo, It's Enrico Polazzo!

by hyattff2003 on Jun 22, 2007 8:32 PM CDT 0 recs

Ryan Braun

I'm warming up to him.

by nmc on Jun 22, 2007 8:32 PM CDT 0 recs

Dude

is Ned awake? Suppan sucks.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 8:52 PM CDT 0 recs

i seriously can't believe that

he keeps him in after hitting gordon. im here just hanging out in my house and i know what to do. unbelievable.

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:01 PM CDT up 0 recs

fire ned yost. (now)

soup should have been out long ago. doesn't he watch these games? soup has been bad lately...

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 8:55 PM CDT 0 recs

That's it

I am coming up to Milwaukee and breaking his other collarbone. That was atrocious. Don't just fire him, kill him

That's not the Chirizo, It's Enrico Polazzo!

by hyattff2003 on Jun 22, 2007 8:57 PM CDT 0 recs

Come on Rickie

get us a hit and knock out Soup

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 9:01 PM CDT 0 recs

way to put unneeded pressure on the offense.

they did their job already.

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:02 PM CDT up 0 recs

yeah

6 runs should be enough to beat the Royals twice.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 9:03 PM CDT up 0 recs

i just don't get it.

really. it's not even a cliche anymore. he honestly should be fired.

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:07 PM CDT up 0 recs

Seriously Suppan

you better start pitching better on the second-half off the season.

by Aschen on Jun 22, 2007 9:07 PM CDT 0 recs

it's not his fault, tho...

i really dont think he should have been in there. he was losing his control. he was done... i want him to pitch better; but i can't hang this on soup.

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:11 PM CDT up 0 recs

i wonder what robin yount would have done (WWRYD)?

wonder if he agreed with ned's calls last season?

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:12 PM CDT 0 recs

WOW! Who called this the other day???? AWESOME!!!!

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:15 PM CDT 0 recs

Not be negative,

but this was the 5th inning. Come on, he's a vetern and needs to give more than that. Sometimes you have dig deep and get another inning or two. His ERA was 9.56 in the last 3 games.

Brewers, Brewers keep turning up the heat.. Milwaukee Brewers..

by Aschen on Jun 22, 2007 9:21 PM CDT 0 recs

i can see that...

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:25 PM CDT up 0 recs

Can Braun hit for the cycle?

Come on triple.

Brewers, Brewers keep turning up the heat.. Milwaukee Brewers..

Nice

2 base passed ball.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 9:28 PM CDT 0 recs

Wow

these Royals must be painful to watch on a daily basis.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 9:30 PM CDT 0 recs

Ahh, those royals

They remind me so much of the brewer teams of several years ago

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 9:30 PM CDT 0 recs

Say, where did the Game Thread go?

Sorry about that --- it took me a bit to figure out how to bump it to the front page.

Hey, that Corey Hart could be good someday.

"C'mon, boys, let's get 'em some RUNS!" --- Daron Sutton, pretty much every game of the 2005 season.

by roguejim on Jun 22, 2007 9:52 PM CDT 0 recs

i was confused. thought i offended someone...

(formerly engbjm06)

by Jamie in LA on Jun 22, 2007 9:53 PM CDT 0 recs

Maybe

we should play Hart every day. Sad it took a Weeks injury for the hamster in Ned's head to start jogging.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 9:59 PM CDT 0 recs

I think I hear

Spurling's music to start the 9th.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 10:03 PM CDT 0 recs

Spurling's music?

"Livin' on a Prayer?"

or maybe

Highway to the Danger Zone

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:05 PM CDT up 0 recs

Jeez

I leave for a few minutes and this game gets out of hand.

I'm guessing Hart did something?

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:04 PM CDT 0 recs

Good guess

3 run home run.

Or it was second and third, and he walked, and he just kept going.

The old walk and keep going

It's the new market inefficiency

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:08 PM CDT up 0 recs

Jeez

We should be no-hit more often.

Good times

If the Red Sox beat the Padres tonight we will be tied with the Dodgers for best record in the NL. Hart and Braun are 2 of the 3 Top Performers for the night on ESPN's scoreboard page.

i wonder...

how davey lopes would feel about nick leyva :)

Geez

Prince gets an inside the park HR and now thinks he can score on a shallow fly to left. :)

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:18 PM CDT up 0 recs

besides

Carlos Zambrano

Saving Spurling

Wise is finishing the game off

by roguejim on Jun 22, 2007 10:20 PM CDT 0 recs

if Prince would have scored

we would have cracked open a pounder of Spurling.

by molitorfan on Jun 22, 2007 10:21 PM CDT up 0 recs

defensive replacement Graffy with a nice play

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:21 PM CDT 0 recs

Nice job

Counsell bobbles it, throws it to Prince, and he bobbles it. It's a shame we can only call one error on the play.

Nice redemption play by Craig, tho.

not many hard hit balls

but wiser is doing his best spurling impression

by sheeter on Jun 22, 2007 10:24 PM CDT 0 recs

The 9th

This is unnecessary. The game has gone on long enough. BTW, what's wrong with having Turnbow pitch another inning?

by nmc on Jun 22, 2007 10:24 PM CDT 0 recs

Cards lost, Cubs won

we now have an 8 game lead.

Forget about the 8 game lead

It's 8 1/2.

Ned for Prez!! Seriously, he needs a new job.

by Zel123 on Jun 22, 2007 11:10 PM CDT up 0 recs

and

we are tied for the best record in the NL and have the best home record in the NL. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

by molitorfan on Jun 23, 2007 5:53 AM CDT up 0 recs

Magic # is...

now 83

We have a 8.5 game lead over both the Scrubs and the Cards. We are 11 games over .500.

I'm going to start something that I'm going to do every game. It will be Hyatt's Most Valuable and Least Valuable Brewers of the game. I will be doing players and coaches for this. So, with that said...

MVB- I'm going to split the award between Ryan Braun (my man crush), and Corey Hart. Braun went 4-4 with 3 RBIs, and with improving defense, will become the most complete player on this team. Hart just loves to lead off, going 3 for 4 with 4 RBIs

LVB- Yost gets this one for leaving Suppan in during that wonderful headache that was the 5th inning. Granted he got out of it, but still, it was obvious that he couldn't get the job done tonight, so why subject us to that kind of pain. Suppan deserves a share as well for sucking. He's given up less than 4 runs in just 1 of his last 9 starts. Once again shows that the process for handing out wins and losses is silly and just must be stopped.

That's not the Chirizo, It's Enrico Polazzo!

by hyattff2003 on Jun 23, 2007 10:49 AM CDT 0 recs

LVB

Personally, I would have liked to see the anger and bewilderment over someone like Spurling or Capellan coming into the game than Suppan going out there another inning.

by TheJay on Jun 23, 2007 11:54 AM CDT up 0 recs

DLR

3 losses in six days for Jorge De La Rosa. Talk about a tough week.
