5/27/07 Brewers (Suppan) @ Padres (Peavy):3:05 CDT

[MoneyballMan]

Maybe Peavy will blow his elbow out in the 4th or something.....

[adambr2]

Why are we stacking the lineup with lefties, when Peavy shows no statistical disadvantage against righties or lefties?

[MoneyballMan]

My point exactly and even if a pitcher does show some differences, I think you really need to settle in with a "starting lineup" at some point.

[Ennder]

Historically Peavy gives up about .100 points of OPS against lefties. This year has been the exception so you have to assume its just sample size at this point.

 

I just want them to stop playing Gwynn and play Hart every day and I'll be happy with almost any lineup they throw out there.

[istanbultaye]

because many of the batters show bad splits?

[TheCrew07]

18 strikes and 24 balls thus far for Suppan, I hope he finds his control soon.

[adambr2]

Whew...big escape there....

 

and now....time for another overplayed seatbelt commercial...

[davemakovec]

Jose Cruz and Mike Cameron really bailing Soup out there...

 

Let's get something in the top half, huh, Brewers?

[davemakovec]

Is it just me or does anybody else think that's the ballgame?

[MoneyballMan]

Could very well be the way Peavy's pitching and the way we're playing.

 

Although we're one-half of the way to my 2-1 Brewers win prediction!

[tyguy20204]

It's hard not to.

[MoneyballMan]

Not a whole lot of interest in today's game. This has to be the quietest game-day thread I've seen in quite a while.

[AJAY]

Suppan is on pace to walk 100 batters today.

 

*sigh*

[Brewers77]

What is all this talk? They gave Rickie a day off so Counsell is playing. Besides that, they have been changing outfielders all the time. Hart and Mench have not been playing so this lineup is not that much different. Find something else to complain about. Maybe Sheets isn't an ace or why Hart is not playing.

[MoneyballMan]

We're probably just lucky it's not 5 or 6 to zip already the way Suppan's pitching!

Look at the wrong end of a sweep and a 5 game losing streak, excitement isn't exactly at an all-time high right now.

Play nice.

[Brewers77]

We're lucky to have constant complainers like those in the IGT today. Man you guys are great. Must we always look at the worst possible situation? Cheer up, its only a game.

I have no idea what you're on about here. Sheets struggled out of the gates but has looked MUCH better his last few starts.

 

I don't know if Hart is still injured or what the deal is, but he sure hasn't done anything this season to deserve PT over the guys that are in right now.

[Ennder]

I miss the days when all we had to complain about was which RP to throw out there because Cordero and Turnbow had been pitching every day.

[uecker9]

Solo shot right here boys!!!

Which is another example of why Milwaukee's not a "baseball city" like everyone always says. Milwaukee loves a winner, but otherwise...find me something else to do. I'll guarantee I could walk into 10 bars around the city today and at least 8 or 9 will have Indy and NASCAR on but no Brewers game. But then as soon as they start winning again, everybody will jump back on the bandwagon with the "I've been a diehard fan all my life" crap.

Please don't tell people how they should feel about the Brewers struggles. It's rude and annoying.

[MoneyballMan]

DAMN - shot up the middle right at Peavy, but it hit is glove!

Maybe it's just that the Brewers haven't given us a lot to talk about today. I've just been sitting here watching, waiting, PRAYING for something to happen. aaaaaand, nothing.
