This team is looking more different every day. Just about every pitcher on the 40-man roster is either on the DL or in the big league bullpen, and we've got Russell the Muscle back on the bench. What next--the Milwaukee debut of the Crabbe-man?
Game time today is 12:35 CT, and here's the BR Game Preview. It's Tim Redding vs. Manny Parra, who is down to a 4.40 ERA on the heels of a couple of solid outings. Redding is actually pitching considerably better--he even blanked the Phillies for 6.1 last time out.
Go Brewers!

Sunday Lineup
Guess even though it’s a holiday weekend we’ll still roll otu the Sunday line up. Hopefully 3TO can go deep on this!

I know I am the only one
pumped about 3TO, but I think Hall is just having a fire lit under him; so unless Branyan crushes it, I think it will be short lived.

Seriously I think he should consider having Lasik done during the ASB
Hall that is. He really seems to have a lot of trouble identifying strikes so far.

Probably
It’s a perverse way to think about it but Doug Davis did.

Tommy John is an "elective" surgery
Just ask Chris Capuano.
He's extremely quick and good.

Branyan
I wonder what number he’s wearing. Dave Bush has his number from his last Brewers go-round and Gabe Kapler has his other “usual” number.

bad luck
not a bad inning for Parra though. 12 strikes, 2 balls. The first ball he threw(that didn’t get swung at) was the wp.

This at-bat
will either end in a strikeout, walk, or homerun. You can put money on it.

Through 1 AB
Branyan is hitting righties over six times better than Hall.

Nationals' injuries
If the Brewers had as many injuries as the Nationals do, would there be grumbling among fans about Yost’s warm-up program for the team?

Why not look to the first five innings
where, once again, the Crew can’t move runners on base? Every loss seems to feature this.
PB does not equal a WP. Pitchers get the “credit” for WPs
