Game Thread #PS minus 4: Pirates at Brewers (tied!)

Pittsburgh Pirates at Milwaukee Brewers, Sep 25, 2008 7:05 PM CDT


Once again, the situation merits a wrap-up:

  • 6:10 CT: Cubs at Mets.  Harden takes on Pedro.  Rain is in the forecast--a lot of it--so we'll see what happens here.
  • 7:05 CT: Pirates at Brewers.  Zach Duke against the returning hero.  Duke hasn't had a QS against the Crew since 2006.
  • Phillies have the night off, and since they lost yesterday, they currently sit 1.5 ahead of the Mets.  That, of course, means they're also 1.5 ahead of us, which is close enough to make the Mets-win-East, Brewers-win-WC scenario plausible.

Focusing more, though, all eyes will be on Yovani Gallardo.  If he pitches well--especially if the Mets lose tonight--it will be one hell of a story.  It's impressive no matter what happens.  It isn't quite Kirk-Gibson-homer territory (we are playing the Pirates, after all), but then again, there aren't a lot of clutch Brewers moments that would better it.

Go Brewers!

I don't think Duke will be much of a problem

It always seems like Cooter is the one that really messes things up.

Methinks the Brewers also need to make the playoffs for Yovani to enter Brewlore

I just hope Gallardo doesn't get hurt

Note to reader:

we didn’t enter an alternate universe in which the Brewers and Pirates are tied in overall standings.

Although, one could argue that at this point we’re tied at 0-0 in this game.

Note: since Weeks Post-All Star Break is .265/.385/.446 I will riot if he isn’t batting first or second. The only reason I’m not rioting if he doesn’t lead off is I’m already resigned to the suckitude of batting Cameron there.

Hey is this the open thread?

I was told there would be pie and sex with dead chicks jokes ;)

On a more serious note is anyone a bit worried about only getting 2 hits last night?

Great they won but 2 hits off a Pirate starter makes me worry

Nah

You can only get so many hits when they’re willing to walk you nine times. Every starter but Braun and Hart got on base at least once, and I consider the former an anomaly and the latter nothing new.

Torres has been a little concerning lately though.

Mets weather

Here is a weather page. Looks like they’ve got about an hour or so of dry weather to get things going. Any better weather maps?

by ol Pete on Sep 25, 2008 5:50 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Thanks for that link

I would assume they are going to at least start the game then. That is kind of perfect if they get through two inning or so and then the rains come for like three hours. Make the Cubs fly here late and burn the pen and make the Mets use an already taxed pen.

but Gameday doesn’t have a single fastball from him over 90 mph. I wonder if he’s just doing that to save wear on his arm, or if he’s getting fatigued.

Sacrifice bunts

I was thinking about Sveum’s obsession with sacrifice bunts, and I thought I remembered a discussion here about how the likelihood of scoring goes down when you sacrifice (what you gain in advancing the runner, you lose in giving up an out). Is that right?
