I was in 7th grade.

There was no Brewers TV contract and no cable TV at my house even if they had a contract. I spent most of the summer carrying an honest to goodness transister radio around with me. It had a leather carrying case with a loop on it so you could hook it to your belt, which I often did. I went through batteries like crazy, much to my parents chagrin. I remember listening to games, in my room, or in my old fort in the woods behind my house, and late in the year, on the bus riding home from school.

I think it might actually increase his value now. If playoff performance can make a guy like Jeff Weaver rich, can you imagine what it could do for a guy who’s already a certified ace?

Playoff Roster

Any idea when the Crew will announce their 25 man postseason roster? Will be interesting to see if Sheets makes the list.

The Bambi's Bombers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!

by 80badger on Sep 28, 2008 6:39 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

They have a pool of players

and they choose 25 for each series. So they could not pick Sheets and if he feels better and they beat the Phils, he could be activated for the NLCS.

The pool is the 25-man roster on August 31st plus anyone on the DL at that point. Anyone on the 60-day DL can be replaced by a player who was on the 40-man August 31st, so no Coffey or Lamb for sure.

Nyx was on the roster on the 31st, so I don’t know how that works out. I think Stetter will be on the postseason roster, and he would be for Capuano. If Kapler or Branyan aren’t going to go, they could be transferred to the 60-day to add another spot.

Origins of "Also, cheese" signature proves prophetic!
1. Chicago Cubs. We’re not ready to go with the “they win the World Series in the 100th year” business, but the lineup is starting to scare us a little.

2. Milwaukee Brewers. These guys reek of slow starters, followed by the firing of Ned Yost, followed by a crazy run to the wild card.

3. Houston Astros. This franchise is absolutely dead in two years. Their last gasp will push them into third place. Congrats, guys.

4. St. Louis Cardinals. The lineup should surprise — watch Brian Barton, kids — but man, is that really Todd Wellemeyer in the rotation? Heavens.

5. Cincinnati Reds. No longer will these guys sucker us in. It’ll be fun to see who Griffey goes to, though.

6. Pittsburgh Pirates: Yes, yes, the Pirates are still around. Nice stadium too.

I couldn’t watch the game or listen to it because I had to work. So instead I kept texting milwaukee brewers and florida marlins to Google on the Go for updates. The damn system stalled 4-2 Florida in the top of the ninth (never got that final text back).

When we won, my parents called and a good friend and Mets fan texted me “congrats.” I asked the score of their game, and he wrote back “I knew the Mets would lose once they went to the bullpen.” (We talked after the games were actually over….he’s root for us in the playoffs)

Then, I got home and read the game thread and nearly weeped when I got to Braun’s homer. This is the greatest thing I can remember!!!!!!!

looking at all the celebration pictures, it looks like the rookies are solidly part of the clubhouse—escobar is all over the place, for one, and then this. seems like a good thing, if it means anything at all.

Also, cheese.

Congratulations!

I’m an Astros fan, and mostly-lurker, sometime-poster at Crawfish Boxes. Good luck in the post-season—here’s hoping our late April 2009 series against you guys is billed as “vs. the World Champion Brewers”!

props to an Astro fan

any team that hires Cecil Cooper is a team I’d root for most every day….
