Is it crazy of me to be wishing that Mike Jones was in San Diego starting tonight instead of in Jacksonvile?

[DHonks]

jvrocksaz, I'd be tempted to drive over to SD for the game just to show support. But since I couldn't find any Brewers fans from CA, NV, or AZ that are interested in going, I am going to enjoy watching on Extra Innings. Plus, I can turn it off if it gets ugly and go back to watching the Season 2 DVD of Psych

I would rather see any of the guys in the minors in San Diego tonight.

[AzBrew]

DHonks What state are you located? It would be a fun road trip....

[Mass Haas]

LHP Donald Brandt starts for Helena tonight -- however, Eric Arnett will see action in relief.

[Mass Haas]

Angel Salome starting tonight in Nashville, batting 8th. My whining on the matter can cease.

 

Raining in Jacksonville after three scoreless innings, will Mike Jones come back out?

 

Five scoreless for Amaury Rivas thus far, looking to make this a 5th consecutive quality start, with four being of very high quality.

[TheCrew07]

WI has 7 runs, and the top 5 players in the order are hitless... go go bottom of the order! (why did the go go thing pop in my head and what cartoon is that from? why am I unable to place it?) Meadows has been excellent since the 1st.

 

Rivas has to walk more than 1 batter every single time he approaches a K:BB ratio of 3:1 just so I'm unable to pimp him more. The entire BC lineup exploded tonight except for Schafer, I was hoping he'd keep the multi hit games rolling in.

 

Hall with 2 more hits in Nashville. Gamel out of the lineup... mental health day?

 

Helena just under way but Brownstein with another hit. I sincerely hope he keeps hitting as he moves up, he's so easy to root for. And yes I admit Steve Wendt has probably slightly influenced me, but anyone who's read my comments on Sanchez will understand why I like Brownstein.

Go-Go Gophers from the Underdog series of cartoons!

TheCrew07, feel free to post summaries tonight if you wish. If not, I'll be able to, keep me posted as you have in the past, thanks.

[wibadgers23]

That would be the second mental health day in three games for Gamel I believe. It's too bad Jones' outing got cut short by rain tonight. Hopefully Arnett can keep the walks down tonight.

[DHonks]

AzBrew...I'm in AZ, Scottsdale to be specific.

[jwill535]

Good night for Hall with a double and HR.

[SlideBernieSlide]

So Bill Hall played SS tonight? Whats that about?

[sveumrules]

crew07, could you be thinking of inspector gadget. as in, go go gadget arm!!!

 

arnett with 1 2/3 ip and 5 strikeouts. that'll help the old k/9.

[TheCrew07]

Yes!!

[twobrewers]

I'll be very curious to see where Arnett ranks in the next Power 50.

 

His Helena numbers are far from dominating...

[TheCrew07]

dude would you quit ragging on him, we don't even know if he's throwing all his pitches or not.

[twobrewers]

Have I really "ragged" on Arnett much?

 

I believe I might have originally commented that he was too high on his initial Power 50. And I made a comment tonight about his struggles.

 

I supported the draft pick. I just don't see his ceiling as high and others. At the very least, I think it is unfair to indicate that I have been unfairly hard on him.

[jvrocksaz]

AzBrew...I'm in AZ, Scottsdale to be specific.

DHonks I am in Chandler myself.. Let me know if you (or anyone else that lives in AZ) decide to go to any games here when the Brewers play the Dbacks! I would love to meet some fellow Brewerfan.neters! I too had thought about heading to San Diego but unfortunately the kids are already back in school since Chandler has a year round schedule...

[jvrocksaz]

I am really glad to see Adam Heether getting a chance in the outfield. I wonder how he would be in CF or RF? If he played 3B he must have a decent arm... Hmmmm... At very least it is nice to have another in house option with Lo Cain's struggles (although injury related) this season.
