Wait, 106 pitches while not pitching that great and you're leaving him in?!?
Not saying it's right...but he probably thinks he can push it with all the days off this week.

 

That would be the reason to take him out. You would leave him in if you had a stretch of 20 straight.

Didn't he create a fake website to say that's where he got it from and the investigators found out he was part of making/getting the idea for making a fake website?

 

Not living in Wisconsin, I've had quite a few non-Brewer people talk to me about the Braun PED stuff. Most of them don't hold against him the fact that he cheated. Or even that he lied. The big thing was he smeared another person. It would have been one thing if Braun had just said that the collector had mishandled his sample by not following specific procedures (which was true). Instead, he insinuated that there was something more underhanded going on, and the guy was part of some plot.

 

Cheated. Lied about it. Implicated the collector. You can argue the nuances of the situation, but for most people, they don't know the specifics (or care). It's one thing to cheat. And to lie. It's another to go after another human being. Add in the fact that Braun has a kind of cool arrogance to him, plus he's has been wildly successful, and it's easy to hate Ryan for a lot of people.

 

Personally, I don't boo or hate anyone over PEDs. It's happened. Move on. As for Braunie, he's a Brewer, so he's my guy. I'll cheer him every time. I won't be buying a Braun jersey (except in the bargain bin), but I don't like spending so much energy hating on someone. But some people just can't forgive and/or forget. Nothing wrong with that - it's just not me.

Exactly. Plus, he's not looked very good.

 

I assume he just wanted a right hander to face Bautista (which worked out great) before bringing in Duke.

Anybody else catching Block's subtle Canadian jabs the past couple of days?

 

Yes! "Bow-tista. I mean, Bautista, he had a homerun today, its Bow-tista when he doesnt"

Don't like Kintzler coming in. Yes he gets ground balls but the Jays are probably going to bunt, which likely moves runners to 2nd and 3rd in which case you would want a strikeout pitcher out there and Kintzler is our worst strikeout pitcher.
