2011-08-11 Brewers (Gallardo) at Cardinals (Carpenter) - 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-2]

[logan82]

the guy who is around all of these players every single day, can't accurately gauge who is ready to succeed.

 

You are right. Kotsay's .304 OBP and .330 SLG proves the manager knows when Kotsay will succeed.

[jjfanec]

Why again did we not trade for Furcal?

I am pretty sure he has an OPS of .630 since joining the Cards.

[bucks2281]

I have a feeling Gallardo is going to have one of his 6 IP, 116 NP games tonight.

[natronek8780]

Had to know they would come to play tonight. Yo just getting a bit too much of the plate early, he'll figure it out. Had 2 impressive strike outs vs Jay and Berkman.

[topper09er]

Did anyone else just get a Big 12 commercial, are we getting the StL feed or something?

FSN carries the Big 12 during football season. I'm sure that's why.

[YoGasKpose]

Ouch. Not a good start for my man Yo.

 

This has all the makings of that 2nd game from the last series. You think pitcher's duel, and it ends up being a slugfest. Hopefully the Crew can get a different result this time.

[pebadger]

Yup. All the FSNs will have more B12 games this season due to the way the TV contracts have fallen following the conference changes. They've always had the games, they're just pushing them more this season.

[DatHoser]

To answer my own question, maybe that's why we didn't trade for him. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

DFA Lopez

 

Free Jerry Hairston Jr

[tomwopat]

How about a Jack from Yo right here to make up for those Cardinal HRs.

[MillerParkSouth]

Lopez has been pretty terrible for the last 2 years, not sure why Roenicke continues to play him over JHJ.

Because of lefty/righty matchups

[fondybrewfan]

Yo is getting hit hard; hopefully he settles down

You completely missed his point.

How about Yuni over Hairston?

[topper09er]

Yuni is the "starter"

[natronek8780]

Good inning there Yo. Nice and efficient too.

[jjfanec]

Another nice at bat from Kotsay. Not sure what made RR goes with him but it is looking good so far

[topper09er]

BA said Braun asked for the day off

[chuckcrim]

3 innings and 2 double plays already, c'mon boys!

[natronek8780]

That's why we start Lopez. D. F. A.

[MillerParkSouth]

ok, NOW can we get rid of Lopez?

[topper09er]

OK lets see how Yo can do with 4 outs to get

[theavrock]

Um Brian just said Lopez is in there for his bat. So we now have Kotsay and Lopez starting over JHJ for their bats...
