Lee got a few innings off. Ha.

Magruder must be hurt because Carlos is now in left field. So much for a day off.

[mastershake76]

Well, at least it was Magruder up there getting drilled in the elbow instead of El Cabello. That one inning off is paying dividends already! Nice call, Ned!

Quote (JoeH33):

Why was Moeller bunting there, especially since he's been on fire lately??

 

I don't think it was a bad idea, Joe... he probably saw Vinny "53 years old" Castilla playing back at third and thought he could beat out a hit. Castilla is still mighty good at defense, though, and he made a great play.

 

Also:

 

- Carlos' day off lasted all of two innings. Magruder's elbow must be bothering him... he got nailed right on the funny/crazy bone and it looked like he was in some pain.

 

- I don't think anyone mentioned this but JP is going solo today as Bob Uecker had to leave after the first to be with his family after a relative passed away. Best wishes to him - he sounded pretty emotional handing it over to Jim before he left.

Jenkins OPS is at .804 right now and its 1157 for the month of July.

[RoseBowlMtg]

OK second time through let's bat up to Ohka!

[germanking]

I'll take the OPS anytime, maybe his 2 year slump is almost over.

 

 

come on Billy

Ricky has really made Drese work on both his ABs.

[RoseBowlMtg]

I'll take that harmless error with a double anyday! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[JoeH33]

2nd and 3rd no outs, this should be intresting

[RoseBowlMtg]

I don't think that HBP was on purpose since Drees looked to the sky as soon as he released it....Thoughts?

[no19no1]

Is Drese trying to take out our outfield one by one?

[no19no1]

Second day in a row Carlos left a runner on third with one out.

[skappleton2002]

Watch out boys, it looks like its open season on our outfield.

[mastershake76]

Poor Carlos...he just can't get going (home run a couple nights ago aside.) We really should try to give that guy a day off someti....uh, nevermind.

[bucky2win]

I'm just watching the gamecast so I can't see what happened but the Crew scores in the first, Drese plunks McGruder, the Crew scores in the 3rd, Drese plunks Jenkins. Did he get warned?

[RoseBowlMtg]

One more Chad then my hope will have been fulfilled!

[Diskono]

I just noticed that, except Moeller, everyone in this lineup has an OPS over .800. Swap in Miller, and that's borderline-respectable!

[RoseBowlMtg]

Did I hear that right a 10 game hitting streak for Chad? Whoo hoo!

That is a run expectancy chart from Tango Tiger. Complements of brettac1 in the venting thread. We actually scored as many runs as we should have in this situation! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eek.gif

 

EDIT: Thanks to Moeller thats 3 runs now! We're overacheivershttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

[MachMeister5]

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[bucky2win]

Drese is thinking "I shoulda hit him...I am for sure hitting Ohka!"

[WV Brew]

Ron Darling is incensed that Branyan wasn't called out on the 1-2 pitch.

[skappleton2002]

What happened with the Moeller single there. Its says he was thrown out at second from CF, to the Catcher to the SS. How does that happen?
