That's ALL-STAR Kevin Correia to all of you.

[LouisEly]

And on Fox I get Yankees-Rays. Yay me.

[MillerParkSouth]

I was going to flip out if we didn't get the Brewers game down here in Chicago. I figured we would, but you never know when the Yankees are involved. Hopefully Johnny Wholestaff can keep it rolling (still don't know why we just don't give De La Cruz the start).

[pitchleague]

And on Fox I get Yankees-Rays. Yay me.

Same here. It's days like these that I appreciate the $15 subscription to MLB Audio. It'll be good to listen to Uecker and Provus again. Haven't listened to them in about a month.

[ECpackers]

...their best pitcher, vs our worst 'starter/bullpen' pitcher...hopefully estrada can give up less than 5. at least greinke cooled off their bats for most of last night.

[Oldcity]

I don't understand why they went with Estrada who hasn't been stretched out in months over a guy who has been starting all year in AAA.

 

In those pictures, it's like one is trying to imitate the other.

[igor67]

Seconding the lameness of getting the Yankees.

[chickinbrickin]

I can't remember a recent outing for Estranda where he didn't give up a run. Have to agree with Steveo, at least a AAA starter would be stretched out and could maybe offer more innings. Thanks Chris for being an idiot and stabbing yourslef in the hand with a scissors.

 

Well, hopefully the bats stay hot and the Crew pulls out another W.

 

EDIT: Just checked it out and he has given up at least a run in 5 of his last 7 outings.

Game isnt really nationally televised today, probobly due to the Pirates free fall.

[Funketown]

That map is funny. I wonder why that little corner of California/Arizona is being shown the Brewers-Pirates game.

 

Yanks-Rays here in NC too.

 

If I were Kevin Correia, I'd have the following on my business card: Kevin Correia, MLB All-Star.

[hawing]

I'll be at a niece birthday party for most of this game. The family likes the Brewers, but the little girl not so much.

So, try to keep things in check, Marco+; and bats/defense, this would be an extra good day to step up. 1-0 for Saturday.

[RobDeer 45]

Getting it down here in Cincy! Big day!! Hope the bats show up to give us some cushion.

[jjfanec]

I thought one actual benefit to living in Minnesota instead of Iowa would be getting to watch more Packers and an occasional Brewer game, but not nope

[jjfanec]

Hairston getting the start at 2nd should make some people happy.

[Vgmastr]

Perfect lineup. This should be the everyday lineup until Rickie gets back.

[yfinn6]

They're showing the Yankees here in Montana, which makes me happy because I only get to see the Yankees two times per week on ESPN. I missed them already, I need a fix.

[DHonks]

wow, I was looking forward to watching in AZ. I didn't realize Directv has no alternate feeds to see. This stinks, I won't be watching the rays-yankees.

 

yfinn6, where in MT? I spent my summer in Whitefish

...their best pitcher, vs our worst 'starter/bullpen' pitcher...hopefully estrada can give up less than 5. at least greinke cooled off their bats for most of last night.

Marco Estrada has been no worse than Correia this year. Possibly better.

I'm in Great Falls. Whitefish is really nice!

[FVBrewerFan]

Perfect lineup. This should be the everyday lineup until Rickie gets back.

 

 

Almost perfect. Still cant accept Lucroy buried in the 8 spot.

[topper09er]

Perfect lineup. This should be the everyday lineup until Rickie gets back.

 

 

Almost perfect. Still cant accept Lucroy buried in the 8 spot.

I agree, perfect players, but the 5-8 hitters should be reversed to go 5 Lucroy, 6 JHJ, 7 Yuni, 8 McGehee

[pitchleague]

and the MLB Audio link has not been fixed with the correct feed for the Brewers. Is Packer Pre-game for a pre-season game really going to be pre-empting WTMJ's broadcast? Guess I won't be watching or listening today. I guess I could listen to the Pirates radio guys.

[pebadger]

The FOX guy just said the Brewers field well. That's funny. Appreciate the national attention and all, but still.

[pitchleague]

never mind, found it on 94.5 Lake FM's website.
