Finally, that record is starting to look respectable. It's a bummer that our 7-1 streak coincides with an even better run from the Cubs, but ultimately, it doesn't matter how much ground we make up during on hot streaks, it matters how many games we win. We're now on pace for an 84-win season. That won't be good enough for the postseason, but it's a big improvement on where we were at a week ago.
Game time tonight is 7:05 CT, and it's Randy Johnson against Seth McClung. Here's the BR Game Preview, which tells you that Kendall has an 807 career OPS against the Big Unit. Now that Kendall can't hit very well and RJ isn't the same pitcher he once was, all bets are off...but I'm betting on Seth.
Go Brewers!

opposing lineup
includes only two .300+ hitters (.300, .303). I thought the diamondbacks were supposed to be better than that. are these their scrubs?
by PagsBrewCrew on Jun 3, 2008 7:00 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
their goodness
is more attributable to Brandon Webb and Dan Haren.
the offense is well-balanced, though.

Hall
Better not flake out tonight since he wants to leave.
I’d play him even if it wasn’t needed tonight. Then again, I’m a dork like that.

I'm not one much for the "hot hand" theory
but I think it’s time for Ned to “soft-platoon” Kapler and Cameron.
Or Doug could pull of some quality trades. I’ve got some ideas…

Remember when Shouse was a LOOGY
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."

Huntsville's winning 9-3
Salome is having a monster night: 2-3 with a HR, 5 RBI, and 2 BB.
He's extremely quick and good.

makes me wonder about Rottino
I do enjoy the nuggets though – thanks

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Rottino doesn't play another game as a Brewer
He's extremely quick and good.

Bad scene, Scherzer's fault
He's extremely quick and good.

My first day he is on my fantasy team
I traded Morneau, Kazmir and Kevin Gregg, for Prince and Bedard… I hope it works out!

Meaningless this retard

They didn't need that extra run
If Hall really cared about the team, he would have gotten a hit in a game where they needed the run

this discussion just wasted 5 minutes of my life
I guess I’m falling behind the times… luckily, everything is explained on wikipedia

Arizona's fall
I feel for their fans, who are experiencing the 2007 Brewers season. If (knock on wood), we hang on here, they are just one game better than us despite their incredible start, and the Brewers mediocre play.

Could the Cubs finally lose?
End of 2, still no score

The Brewers look solid
Hopefully they can continue this run the next week or so, and keep the momentum the rest of the season
