We're starting Seth McClung, and they're starting Ubaldo Jimenez. Most importantly, we have CC Sabathia, and they don't.
Game time is 7:05 CT, and here's the BR Game Preview.
Go Brewers!

Yost just said on the radio pre-game show
that Suppan hyperextended his elbow on a swing about a month ago and has been labouring through that. Take it for what it’s worth…

did they also find
that he had a mechanical adjustment that needed to be made
or perhaps that he was tipping his pitches?

MLB.com has just announced this offer for those who vote in this now time-honored process:
• If you are not a current MLB.TV subscriber (MLB.TV or MLB.TV Premium), then you are eligible to receive a one week free trial of MLB.TV Premium from July 11-18. That will amount to five full days of the regular season. A valid e-mail address is required for the offer.

of course, I think that coincides with the San Francisco series. Can I choose another week, please?;)

oooh, oooh..
is CC projected to pitch the Giants series? I suppose that won’t be known until right before (or right after) the ASB.
I’ve already seen Sheets and Santana match up. It’d be fun to see another Cy Young past or future.
by PagsBrewCrew on Jul 7, 2008 7:08 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
supposedly
he’s going to start both the last game before the ASB (the 13th) as well as the first one afterwards (18th), assuming they don’t end up moving away from the latter idea until then. So you might have two CC starts in that week.

isn't that the series with the complete Saturday blackout?
I’ve noticed that whenever I wanted to see Tim Lincecum pitch, the games would be blacked out. Ugh, West Coast starts and the stupid FOX monopoly.

Greetings from the Windy City!
Hello Brewers fans! I have a question that I haven’t been able to find the answer to.
LaPorta was drafted by the Brewers in the June 2007 draft but I don’t think he signed until August. As far as I understood, teams could not trade players for one year. Is that one year from when they draft a player or sign a player?
Thanks and congrats on getting CC.

I can tell McClung is walking people. The question I can’t answer is why. Is he back to trying to blow things by everyone? Is his fastball slow? (the ‘dead arm’ excuse) Is his curveball off? Or is his mind floating off somewhere that isn’t the pitcher’s mound at Miller Park?

excuse me?
did I just read correctly?
craig counsell SINGLES on POP UP to catcher?
by PagsBrewCrew on Jul 7, 2008 9:33 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
They all watched his pop up hit the ground
by Marty McSuperFly on Jul 7, 2008 9:34 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
oh..
and because no one touches it, it’s officially not an error?

Gritty players have been known to do that
And neck size to baby eating ratio.
by Jordan M on Jul 7, 2008 9:33 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
When he left the batters box
the cloud of grit got in the catchers eyes
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."

oh yeah
3 players made a circle around the ball and no one went for it

Braun
better get it done with the way Prince has been (not) hitting
The Wallbangers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!

I would still
rather have prince up with the game on the line than any other player on the team.
by Rawiswar on Jul 7, 2008 9:35 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Prince
has been hitting okay with runners on 3rd
sample size – get it
by PagsBrewCrew on Jul 7, 2008 9:36 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
second one
was a bad bounce off the mound
by molitorfan on Jul 7, 2008 9:38 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
he may have had a hit if the ball didn’t hit the pitcher’s mound and bounce up
by ol Pete on Jul 7, 2008 9:38 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
should have
been able to let it out then?
by PagsBrewCrew on Jul 7, 2008 9:41 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
damn
rally killer.
pitcher change with 2 outs, bases cleared
if it had been inside-the-park, the opposing manager would have been laughing too hard to pull the pitcher.

Anyone who saw
In play, run(s)
must have felt a bit of a let down
And neck size to baby eating ratio.

fielder showing off for the new guy

Damn DP
The Wallbangers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!

There will be no cheating....
Especially with my wife, who is a dirty, dirty tramp.

If Branyan hits a HR...
I will stand naked on my deck in this thunderstorm.

Was it close?
He's extremely quick and good.
by battlekow on Jul 7, 2008 9:47 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
on the positive side
Parra can pitch another inning now
by PagsBrewCrew on Jul 7, 2008 9:47 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Ned disagrees with you....
He would rather waste an appearance by Torres for no reason whatsoever.

dude, I can’t believe how distressed the bleed cubbie bleed fans were over your avatar. I never knew what it was, but after they proclaimed it was “incendiary” and other nonsense I had to look at your profile.
by ol Pete on Jul 7, 2008 9:57 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Who knew that a drawing could bring out such a reaction
What’s ironic is that a regular poster on their site has the exact same avatar. So they’ve obviously seen it before.
by brewfan2 on Jul 7, 2008 10:54 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
nope
kapler PH for Villy
Parra took Cam’s slot

Rowdy cheer for Hall
plus he gets the lefty
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."
by MadJimiBrewha on Jul 7, 2008 9:57 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
that was the one...
now comes the K
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."
