2011-04-18 Brewers at Phillies - [Brewers win, 6-3, 12 innings; Marcum and Kintzler post-game audio at tail end of thread]


Prince Fielder, one epic fail after another. So easy to pitch to, so predictable. Approaching Jenkins territory.
If by approaching Jenkins territory, you mean one of the best hitters in baseball over the last few years, then I guess I could agree with that.

 

You know, sometimes pitchers do a good job and get batters to swing and miss.

If this is our "all in" year, we've got to pull the rip cord on the John Axford experiment. The guy had one good year his whole career, he has not earned a very long leash and right now he is abysmal.
To be fair he had 2 really good years, most of BF.net just didn't know about the first. He'll be fine once he gets his control back, but he's certainly not giving me a warm and fuzzy over his performance thus far this season. I'm not big on the closer concept to start with, so an honest question to those who care about closers, who would you rather have? I'm still concerned about Braddock's 2 MPH drop in velocity in one season, he might have another injury. Loe doesn't need to pitch everyday, but I do like him pitching in the tough situations.

Why is Stetter pitching to a RHB?

Yep, his .871 ops with crap defense was AWESOME last year:

unfortunately getting deep into the Phillies bullpen does almost nothing for us thru the rest of the series because we will probably see them for something like 2 total innings with Halladay and Lee starting
I tried to log in on my iPad. Turns out it was an etch-a-sketch and I don't own an iPad. Also, I'm out of vodka.

Considering the state of the bullpen, Hawkins' return will likely be a welcome sight. Provided he's truly healthy and ready to go, of course.

well, it wasn't terrible. And his .945 OPS since 07 with crap defense has been pretty awesome for me. I mean, it'd be nice if he was a better hitter than those bums like pujols, cabrera, holliday and a-rod, but i guess i'll take the 5th best OPS in the league over that period

Wow. You couldn't be more wrong. Just drop it already.

I totally forgot about Green and Mitre pitching in the same inning, sorry Mitch.
