New York Mets at Milwaukee Brewers, Jun 29, 2009 6:08 PM CDT
Current Series
3 game series vs Mets @ Miller Park
|
New York Mets Monday, Jun 29, 2009, 6:08 PM CDT Fernando Nieve vs Braden Looper Cloudy. Game time temperature around 70. |
||
| Tue 06/30 | 7:05 PM CDT | |
| Wed 07/01 | 1:05 PM CDT | |
After losing two of three to the Twins to open a nine-game homestand, the Brewers now need to take two of three from the Mets to finish the stretch at 5-4. Tonight, they'll send Braden Looper (5-4, 5.16 ERA) to the mound to try to get started.
Looper hasn't factored in the decision in four of his last five starts, and took the loss in the one exception. He has a 7.18 ERA during that stretch, and has allowed opposing batters to hit .301/.339/.549. Looper, of course, was a Met in 2004 and 2005, when he recorded 57 saves. In his ten other seasons, Looper has pitched very well against the Mets, posting a 2.35 ERA in 47 appearances.
For the Mets, it's 26-year old Fernando Nieve, making his fourth start. Nieve has been very effective in the big leagues, posting a 1.31 ERA in 20.2 innings. He faced the Brewers three times in 2006 as a member of the Astros, and went 1-0 with a 4.00 ERA in nine innings. On the season, he's posted a 0.968 WHIP.
Craig Counsell is back in the lineup tonight:
Craig Counsell 2B
J.J. Hardy SS
Ryan Braun LF
Prince Fielder 1B
Casey McGehee 3B
Mike Cameron CF
Frank Catalanotto RF
Jason Kendall C
Braden Looper RHP
And in the bullpen:
Carlos Villanueva last pitched on Friday.
Todd Coffey last pitched on Saturday.
Chris Smith pitched an inning yesterday.
Mitch Stetter last pitched on Saturday.
Trevor Hoffman last pitched on Saturday.
Mark DiFelice pitched an inning yesterday.
Chris Narveson pitched an inning yesterday.
It's an early start tonight: 6:05 local time, even though the game is in Milwaukee. Monday's Game Thread is now open.

He’s the one that allowed(or pushed for ) some of the ludicrous trades and free agent signings that got them into the mess they’re in now. Personally, I’d have preferred resigning Charlie V. and trading Redd for whoever…

Interesting tidbits from ESPN
Looper had 572 appearances in relief before he became a starter and they said he’s the only player that’s found longevity as a starter – they made it sound like no one else who had gone from bullpen to starter after so many season had more than 10 starts

by Bigdogg2002 on Jun 29, 2009 6:31 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I only have the Wii (just got it a few weeks ago)
One thing I read that is kinna cool if true.. If you can get a new release game right when it comes out… You can keep the game if you like it and I believe you get to purchase it at a used price. I think I read you can get 5/10 bucks off.. I believe they also send you a 5 dollar off coupon each month.. Plus I think 5% off when you are a member for 3 months! KL would know if i’m in the ballpark.

5 dollar coupon every 3 months that should read.
by Flag Up on Jun 29, 2009 6:51 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yep, $5 coupons every 3 months to use on keeping/buying games.
And you do get the used price. Sometimes they’ll run out of a new release game and they’ll send you the next one on your list instead, but after a few tries you’ll learn to time it so your game gets back to them right on release day, so you get first priority.
