Good grief. Now are they going to have to make this a tough loss to break our hearts?? Are they really going to make me have to question why Ned only put De La Rosa back out there for 1 inning after having him bat, then pulled him after 2 1/3rd when he was pitching well and is built for long relief?? Why??

 

And how many PINCH-HIT homeruns is that for Gross this season in the first 14 games? 3???

I would agree with that lineup except that Pettite is starting tomorrow I believe and most of Gross's success has come against right-handed pitching. I think that would be a nice line-up, just not tomorrow, however for a game or two at home, it would be nice to see.

2B Weeks

SS Hardy

RF Jenkins

LF Lee

CF Gross

1B Fielder

3B Hall/Koskie

C Miller

P Pitchers Spot

 

I think Yost should try that lineup tommorow.

 

 

 

I'm with you, in theory. I think Weeks is killing us too with his bat this season. Not a HR or any sign of consistency. Put his butt on the bench for a couple of games and get Hall some AB's. Weeks has had his opportunity to string something together by playing man consecutive games, so it's Billy's turn now. Play Gross though for Clark..I agree.

This is Roy Oswalt. And to be blunt, against a pitcher like him, you only get one chance to count - and you certainly can't let the Astros get back in the game with him on the mound.

 

Oh really Clancy? Cuz it looks to me like we just roughed up Oswalt (like I thought we would) to the tune of 6 ER's in 6+ innings. To say this game was over and look ahead to tomorrow when it was 2-2 in the 2nd was borderline ridiculous.

 

Obviously, I didn't anticipate Davis imploding to give up 9 ER's, but I felt very confident we would touch up Oswalt for at least 4 or 5.

Haha. it's not like we got trounced 15-1 like Baltimore did.

 

It's not over yet....

 

What we can always cling to, just like my UW-Madison classmates and I did occasionally during the valley of the Don Morton era, is

 

We Scored First.

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.
