Chris Capuano (7-4, 3.30)

 

The Brewers send thier stopper to the mound as Chris Capuano looks to help the Crew avoid the sweep. The Tigers send southpaw Nate Robertson to the bump looking to win their 7th straight and complete their 2nd sweep in as many series.

Cappy, I know it sounds like I am always asking, but plz stop the bleeding. Either that or just go around the dugout and slap the regulars to wake up the bats.

Remove Moeller from that lineup and it looks not half bad. Corey getting in on the action, finally.

[Opey76]

Hart finally emerges from the darkest part of the dugout. Does anyone know the status of Cirillo and his injury? He must still be hurting if Koskie gets the start against a tough left hander.

[Southwest Brewer]

Considering our record in games where Moeller gets an AB....I'm not predicting a victory today.

 

Every game I see that guys name in the lineup I just hope the rest of the lineup is on fire and scores about 10 runs.

 

If I understand things correctly, the Crew has a full 1 run higher ERA when Chad plays....that combined with his rocket launcher bat makes me a sad guy today.

 

Hope this negativity is proven wrong. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[cruiserx43]

I think it's his stick combined with the fact that I can't remember the last time he has thrown out a runner that makes me adore him so much.

Well, he did have the RBI last night.

 

I'll be chanting "Bad Chad" when I'm able to see he's up on Gameday. I taught my nephew the chant at the Sunday Cardinals game we attended together on the 11th. It didn't change Moeller's output, but it was kind of fun.

[brewerjamie15]

With Cappy on the hill,I'm pretty sure we will avoid the sweep. At least untill the bullpen comes out, we have a fine chance.

[Badger61]

Anyone else find it odd that the Leyland is putting out a lead-off man sporting an OBP of .287?

[kiwi brewer]

I wish Moeller would just go the way of Uecker's stalker and disappear.

 

blah!!

[craigharmann]

It's always a good day when Corey Hart gets a start....I think they're gonna pull it out today!

Even with his noodle arm, I don't think it's fair to blame Moeller for that difference. Now, if you look at WHO he's caught vs. their season ERA, I may just listen http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

One man's odd is another man's (named Leyland) genius. I'm sure he yelled at Inge and told him that from now on he will have a .400 OBP. That's how it works, right?

[brewers255]

IF the Brewers win, they than play the Royals and the Cubs. So they may be above .500 at the end of the weekend.

Actually, I'm guessing that his "noodle arm" probably does have something to do with it. The fact that every single, walk or hit batter has the chance to mosey nearly uncontested into second is almost unbearable to watch. That could potentially be enough to tack an extra run on to every game.

Good idea. If I get some time and ambition around October maybe I'll do a Moeller vs. Miller comparison for the season. Of course, that is a long ways away and I'm not able to predict my ambition level for October yet.

[Team Canada]

Ouch, that's not a good way to get more PT, Corey.

Here Ya Go Bad Chad

Chad Moeller = pronounced MOE (as in Moe of stooge fame) LEER (as in can't hit)

 

-Chad is hitting at an amazing .195 clip right now.

 

- Hitless is just pounding the ball as seen with his .305 Slugging %

 

- 1TO is reaching base .250 somehow

 

- in 82 AB's Mr. Moeller has paced himself to get 23 RBI if he reaches 374 at bats.

 

- In his last 8 AB, Moeller has done nothing beneficial at all.

 

- Over his last ten starts, the Brewers have lost nine games, nine of which were in a row.

[Brewers77]

That one is for the people who say Hart is already better than jenkins. I dont think so.

[Badger61]

What happened with Hart?

[Brewers77]

He pulled a lee in right. Just looked lost on that out turned into a double.

[brewmann04]

well hart has played the field in a few games so far.

[Team Canada]

Thank you for playing up in the first inning.

[JoeH33]

Nice to see the Crew give Cappy an early lead.
