3/31/08 Brewers (Sheets) at Cubs (Zambrano): 1:20 PM CDT

Isn't Mota our second worst reliever? With a day off tomorrow and the game tied late against our biggest rival, why?

Mota had a great spring.

[olliegjw]

Isn't Marmol about the only lefty for the Cubs? Why have Gross hit against him? That would be a perfect spot for Dillon.

Marmol is a righty.

Ahh, my bad. It's been so long since last season. I blocked that out of my memory hoping he'd disappear.

[jhart05]

How long would it have taken Estrada to run out and tag F-Dome?

He'd still be running out there to tag him.

 

 

Nah, he'd have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.

[trwi7]

How long would it have taken Estrada to run out and tag F-Dome?

 

He would be camping out between the pitchers mound and 3rd base hoping he could reach the baserunner tomorrow afternoon.

[jhart05]

Maybe i missed this earlier, but anyone have an idea as to what happened to the ESPN2 feed? As soon as the delay was done it cut to ESPNEWS, instead of the game.

 

I like Brian and Bill but I wanna see some ESPN2HD

 

Blacked out in Wisconsin because it's on FSN.

Mota had a great spring.

 

And Sheets had a terrible one. Mota hasn't been good when it counts since 2004. Piniella is using his best relievers right away and Yost should as well.

How long would it have taken Estrada to run out and tag F-Dome?

 

He wouldn't have even tried. He would have thrown it to Hall, who would have then proceeded to throw it to Prince at first and allow FooKoo to advance to third. So with Party Boy runners on 2nd & 3rd one out, with Kendall runner on 2nd with two out. Good move Melvin.

Its sad when you are happy to hit against Wood.. The pitching today has been filthy

Oh, duh. I don't know how I didn't figure that one out for myself. Thanks.

Zambrano left with cramps... color me unsurprised.

He will be fine. Sheets looked great in bullpens, Mota looked great in games.

[sheetswannabe]

Nice play Weeks!

[crossface21]

Beautiful pitch!

[moofnelson]

It counted today, and he was good.

[rluzinski]

Mota owned Theriot and Soriano.

[sheetswannabe]

Nice picture Marc!!

 

Mota= Nasty

[jordanmuehl]

It was a questionable called third strike, but I'll definitely take it. Soriano's down 0-2... We'll see what happens.

[jhart05]

Nice.

[And That]

Mota looked pretty good there.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Guillermo got away with one agains Soriano on that first pitch

[adambr2]

Mota looked great that inning. Great location.

 

If he could be a dark horse in the pen this year that would be HUGE.

[rluzinski]

It counted today, and he was good.

 

I'm sorry if I gave you the impression that Mota hasn't made an out in 3 years. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[derflotr]

Holy moly, what a well-pitched game.

[azcheesehead]

Now if Weeks can get on, steal a base, get bunted over and score.....I'd feel a lot better.

[crossface21]

Sweet!
