Has Fox Sports Go dropped baseball games? It wasn't working at all on Friday and now last night and today all it shows available is racing.

[And That]

Game #109, in which Gennett hits cleanup and no one bats an eye.

I just logged out and logged back in and everything is showing again.

I was a little surprised. Maybe Carter and Perez were just overdue for off days? At that point sticking Scooter at clenup is probably more just process of elimination / spread out the lefties. I mean, Kirk fifth and Keon sixth don't scream "killer middle of the order" either. Wilkins doesn't even scream "roster spot."

 

I just hope Scooter looks at some pitches. I'd love to see his splits by ball-strike count.

Gotta like a leadoff walk that uses up an entire inning's-worth of pitches.

[adambr2]

Broxton looks like a completely different player than he was before the break.

Today's game is on WKTI 94.5 in Milwaukee. Neither mlb.com nor MLB.TV reflect that schedule adjustment.

I think Counsell is terrified to take Villar out of the leadoff spot, and Braun out of the 3 spot. Everything else is a free for all.

Villar is a beast. What fun it's been this year having a competent lead off hitter.

Yeah, for all of Villar's baserunning warts, it shouldn't overshadow what a great player, trade, and leadoff man we landed with him.

[adambr2]

Good heavens Jimmy. What are you doing this inning?

[tinlooper]

Hah I just now see Rickie Weeks on the same lineup as Jean Segura.

 

The only thing better than Rickie keeping or improving his career at this point is finishing with a former Brewer by his side.

[adambr2]

I guess one start is one too many for Andy Wilkins.

[adambr2]

Jimmy. What. Is. Your. Deal.

[adambr2]

I'm always miffed by pitchers, whose sole job is to accurately throw a ball over 60 feet away into a zone that is less than 2 feet by 2 feet, that cannot accurately throw over to first to a 6 foot plus tall individual less than 60 feet away.

[adambr2]

Very excited about the left side of the infield. A Arcia/Villar combo is a nice first piece to the rebuild.

[1992casey]

Because "Jr." is not part of a surname, I wonder if Rickie had to get approval from the commissioner's office to have "Weeks Jr." on his jersey.
