Beat the Cardinals!

[bretsky07]

Bring up Braun and start a Yo tracker!

[iluvlamp]

I have to say that Sheets has not had the best of luck against the Cards. If the Brewers don't beat the holy hell out of Looper I will be sick. This game is so in favor of the Crew we may lose. Yep, I'm cynical. GO BREWERS!

 

His reaction after the second Prince homer....

[pitchleague]

Looper pitched pretty darn good in his last start (first start?). 7 innings of 1 run ball, I believe.

[berniebrewer4life]

Looper's been pretty good this year. 2.08 ERA, WHIP of 1.08. That being said, his last start was against the Pirates( 2 Hits in 7IP), when he faced the Mets, he gave up 8 hits, 2 ERs thru 6. I think we can get to him, with the way the crew is hitting the ball.

So let's get the win!!

[hermanator34]

I always love when the Crew is not listed in the wild card standings. I agree we can get to Looper. Hopefully Bill Hall, assuming he doesn't get a FIFTH consecutive day off gets on track.

[BrewCrewForever]

Come on Ned we need Bill Hall, gotta get his bat going! Hopefully we get the Ben Sheets from opening day today.

[IslandsAC]

Bust out the mini brooms!

[parkside21]

Looks like Pujols pretty much crushes Sheets...let's hope he stays in his slump for one more day! Goooooooooooo Brewers!

[igor67]

I don't think that is that much off his career numbers at this point. Pujols crushes everyone.

The lineups are now posted at the top of the thread! Hall is back finally!

[littledoc83]

Most notable stat that I picked out of that...

 

5-0 when leading after the 7th inning.

That's the first thing that I noticed too. Says something about the Wise/Turnbow/Cordero trifecta. Let's get it to the 7th and @#%$ the Cards.

[crewcrazy]

I noticed the undefeated record after 7 innings first, too, but this was the second thing that popped out at me:

Check the Board

The Brewers have used 8 different start-

ing lineups over their first 10 games of

the season, including a different lineup

in each of the last 5 contests.

[sbrylski]

So are we going to make that into a checklist and see how many of those things they say in the broadcast?

[sbrylski]

Predictions...

 

Hall - 3-4, 1 HR, 1 BB, 4 RBI

Sheets - 7 IP, 4 ER, 7 K's, 1 BB

[sbrylski]

And Sheets better get the win because I missed a start yesterday in fantasy, and I'm tied in Ws and down by one in K's. He doesn't have any pitchers going, just one reliever, IIRC. Other pitchers got PPDed. If I wouldn't have missed that start I'd be up in those two categories right now, Sheets has to come through for me...

[Schlitz001]

Looks like 6 games are postponed already today, but the weather is good in St. Louis.

[AJ Love]

I'm hoping #42 has a huge game

[homer]

Every time I see Braden Looper's name I can't help but think of that scene in Caddyshack:

 

Carl: So I hook on as a looper over in the Himalayas

Angie: A Looper?

Carl: Yeah, a looper....jock....caddy....so I tell 'em I'm a pro jock....

[littledoc83]

Anyone got the splits for Benny in day games? It looks incredibly bright in St. Louis on the pregame.... seems to me Benny has tossed some gems in day games when hitters struggle with glare a little bit.

[Vgmastr]

God, these Brewers Live pre-game shows suck. What possessed them to do one every telecast? Ann Carroll is terrible, and all they do is show the same pre-taped interviews over and over. The Suppan one I must have seen two or three times already, and now they're showing the same Yost interview they showed Friday night. Why so little live footage on a pre-game show?

[DHonks]

Here's hoping for big games from Hart and Hall. I'd love to see them get going
