nonostante la sconfitta di ieri, causata da un irriconoscibile ben sheets, siamo caldi come la grolla.
spazzati via i braves, vinta la serie a cubs, 1-1 con gli astros....
prince fielder eletto il rookie del mese, sta facendo robe incredibili!
lo stesso dicasi per l'utility bill hall (ha già giocato in 3b, 2b e CF) e ha una striscia aperta di partite con HR.
turnbow 9 su 9 in salvezze, l'altro ieri impressionante.
solo che questa division è a dir poco agguerrita......
stay tuned if you love the brew crew

Fielder vola verso il RoY. Mi spiace per Willingham, Buchholz e per il mio pronosticato Zimmerman, ma davvero non ce n'è per ora..........

visto che Lopez (Bal) sta pascolando, mi son comprato D.Miller al FantaBaseball.. ha però pochi AB.. visto che qui siete esperti, mi dite se gioca sempre come titolare, o se c'è qualche retroscena che non conosco? Il deep chart me lo dà come primo catcher.
Kalle.. mi stai brewerizzando! Sono già a quota 3 giocatori MIL in squadra!! :D

è il catcher titolare a tutti gli effetti. solo che ha 36 anni e ogni tanto lo fanno riposare.
in più ben sheets preferisce il back-up moeller in ogni caso (salvo poi lamentarsi per il run support... ma se la batteria è sotto i .150....).
comunque sta avendo un ottima stagione con un casino di doppi. penso tu abbia fatto un ottimo acquisto.

10cimo inning sensazionale per turnbow ed è fatta, nella parte alta koskie aveva portato a casa el caballo lee, per una vittoria 5a4 sui padres che interrompe la nostra inopinata serie di sconfitte.
peccato per il cappottone preso dai dodgers, tutte le squadre della nostra division stanno facendo fatica, abbiamo perso il momento per un boost.
sheets in dl, strano.........anche okha infortunato

apro una nuova discussione sui brewers perchè non mi piaceva il "sottotitolo della prima.
la stagione è sul limite del .500 ma gli spunti di riflessione sono molti.
1) il pitching staff è un lebbrosario, stiamo raschiando il barile e anche quelli sani non è che sfavillino
2) i giovani stanno andando bene con i loro alti e bassi. fielder invece sembra un veterano e fila diretto verso il premio di rookie dell'anno, weeks, spostato lead off, ha scollinato .300 ma in difesa fa cadere i baffi al povero yount, sempre inquadrato dopo i suoi innumerevoli errori, hardy è in DL per la caviglia: in difesa è già un grande in attacco ondivago.
3) miller, dietro il piatto, sta vivendo una seconda giovinezza difensiva, ma in questo campo il suo apporto non era mai scemato, e offensiva, con BA sopra.300 e una serie di doppi anche in momenti clutch. lo stesso siero sembra averlo passato a corey koskie, regalato (anzi gli pagano ancora gran parte dello stipendio) dai blue jays, giocatore che mi sta entusiasmando a 360°

bravo renè.
ieri abbiamo evitato il cappottone a cinci.
il vetranissimo cirillo sugli scudi, oltre che un rigurgito di potenza da carlo lee (2 run HR).
da segnalare le cifre dell'ultimo mese dell' ex lead off Brady Clark, che sembrava avere perso il senno.
MIL OF 27 73 11 25 4 0 0 4 29 10 10 1 0 .449 .397 .342 sen
il ritorno alla grande diBrady pone la questione lead off, ma rickie weeks sta facendo molto bene e sulle basi ha una marcia in più.

umiliante sconfitta ieri sulla nave dei pirati.
unico lampo un HR del principe che finisce nel fiume (solo il 18esimo della storia a riuscire nell'impresa).
davis è imbarazzante.
l'attacco migliore della lega non è supportato dal pitching staff anche perchè sheets, okha e helling sono in DL.
siamo ancora a galla attorno ai .500

ecco un divertente post del forum dei tifosi dei brewers che ipotizza che i pirates (che ci stanno umiliando nella serie) rubino i segni!!!
Are the Pirates stealing signs or..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are the Brewer pitchers tipping pitches?
No evidence other than it sure seems like the last two nights, every Pirate hitter has reacted to every pitch like he knew what was coming.
If I'm the Brewers, I'd be scouring the outfield stands for anyone with binoculars and I'd be viewing tapes of the pitchers to see what they might be doing to give away their pitches.
I'd also have the catchers change up the signs, even with nobody on base.
I did some further research that points to the Pirates cheating. Their home/road splits are ridiculous. At home, they are the 27 Yankees while on the road, they are the 06 Cubs.
Some sampling:
Player Home BA, Away BA, HOPS, AOPS
Bay .323 .284 1.037 1.002
Burnitz .272 .193 .834 .540
Castillo .349 .258 .991 .669
J. Wilson .341 .286 .933 .703
C. Wilson .308 .250 .992 .766
Sanchez .338 .316 .821 .881
Casey .545 .280 1.311 .933
Paulino .328 .265 .805 .633
Jack Wilson is slugging .573 at home. This is a guy with a career slugging percentage going into this season of .368.
I'm sorry but I smell something going on here. This Pirate team got off to a horrible start and I think to try to salvage their jobs, that management decided to give them some help

Casey potevano anche lasciarlo fuori visto il ridotto numero di AB avuti.
Altre considerazioni:
1) PNC Park è buono per i battitori
2) Quasi chiunque batte meglio in casa che fuori
3) E' stata la stessa accusa mossa da Buehrle ai Texas Rangers l'anno scorso. Ridendo e scherzando i giocatori dei Rangers hanno avuto splits ridicoli tra casa e fuori, roba da 100-150 punti di differenza di BA! Non mi sento di escludere che rubino i segni, però oltre a "catturarli", dovrebbero anche ritrasmetterli molto in fretta ai battitori. Secondo Buehrle usavano le luci, bisognerebbe guardare attentamente le partite dei Pirates per vedere cosa "userebbero" loro.

finalmente, dopo essere stati la peggiore squadra dell mlb nelle ultime due settimane, due vittorie in fila contro san diego portano un raggio di luce.
capuano porta a casa la prima delle due vittorie e bush ieri fa un 1R complete game.
lephio ti segnalo gli split clamorosi di bush in casa (dove va bene) e fuori (un film catastrofico).
è vero che la squadra non sta rendendo come previsioni ma ricordo che ci sono sheets, okha e helling nella DL.
se all'all star game non dovessimo rientrare in gioco per la WC aspettatevi trade importanti (clark, jenkins e il prossimo FA Lee hanno mercato e sono in partenza).
in questo caso spazio a giovani outfielders che sono in rampa di lancio (gross, hart, cruz ma anche.....weeks visti i danni che sta facendo in 2B).
stay tuned if you love the brecrew

su brewerfan.net c'è una discussione interessante.
si chiede se i piccoli mercati possano sfornare squadre competitive low budget.
ecco una lucida visiojne del forumista big reed:
the short answer is no.
we cannot compete financially with many of the other teams in pro baseball. Why? They have owners who are willing to lose money if it means a winning season or championship. There are actually baseball owners who care more about winning than making money. And until a brewers owner is willing to lose money, he will never be able to produce a play-off contending franchise. the brewer GM goes into each year with a sound fiscal budget. He is limited as to how much he can spend. Melvin has done a tremendous job with the financial outlay he has been given to work with.
Look at the Marlins - they've won 2 world series in their short time of being a franchise. Their owner was willing to essentually buy a championship, and then give away the team both times. But the marlins very seldom made a profit. Not even in their championship years did the marlins make a profit. Look at the diamondbacks. Their owner went into deep debt with his player acquisitions to buy a championship. In stark contrast, the brewers have made a profit in almost every year of their existance. yes, there were a few years they did not make a profit, but their losses were minimal. Would brewers fans be happy if two years out of ten their payroll was $100 million and the remaining years were $40 million? if it meant we won a world series in one of those two years? That's an average of $50 million for 10 years. Would brewers fans be happy if we tanked 8 years out of ten if it meant we'd make the playoffs two of those years?
As for being a small market team, the St Louis market is even smaller population wise than Milwaukee.. And baseball has been a tradition in Milwaukee almost as long as it has in St Louis. Yet the Cardinals' fan base is a lot bigger. the Cardinals have fans in Springfield IL, Kansas City, Memphis, Little Rock, and Tennessee. On the other hand, people who live in Racine and Kenosha are Cubs and White Sox fans instead of being Brewer fans. The Cardinals no longer have Auggie Busch or Budweiser pumping in payroll money, but they do have an owner who is willing to spend enough money to keep the team competitive.
One of the brewers' problems that is not stated much, is that if the brewers were close to winning a play-off birth, and were competing with the Mets, Phillies, Braves, Astros or Dodgers for that last spot, all of those teams have both prospects and money to acquire a short term veteran for the stretch drive. The brewers don't have the money to acquire a guy like IROD, or javy lopez, or Schilling, or Abreu, or Pedro, or Pierre, or Chavez, or Zito, or Icharo for a 6 week play-off stretch run. And prospects wise, who do we have as prospects that any of those teams would be interested in trading those high priced vets for? Jackson? Cruz? Krenzel?Rogers? I have to believe those teams are going to demand a lot more. On the other hand, if the Mets felt Icharo was the final piece, they could send seattle Milledge and cash. they gave away kazmir. And they'd gladly do it again to make the play-offs. Would brewers fans be happy if they gave away Hart to add Garret Anderson for 4 weeks? in order to get into the play-offs, at some point in the season, you must be willing to trade away part of your future to win now! and that's something I have not seen a brewer GM be willing to do.
with a minimal payroll, the only chance the brewers have of making the playoffs is if every player stays healthy for 162 games - particularly the star players. and every player must be able to either meet their average year or be better than their average. We have seen this year what happens when every player on our team is healthy. We have seen this year what this team can do when the players are playing better than their career averages. But, we have also seen how devastating injuries can be, and also what happens when one player slumps. Simply stated, we can't compete if our star players are hurt or slumping.
yes, the brewers can make the play-offs. however, the odds of doing so and remaining a continual play-off contender are tremendous.
remember the movie Hoosiers? it's about a small town basketball team that went against the odds and won the Indiana state basketball tournament. that was in the year 1940 something. it's never been done in Indiana since. Take a look at Wisconsin basketball. the favorites are usually some Milwaukee team. When was the last time Reedsburg or Baraboo or Janesville Craig won the state championship? it could happen. But logic says it never will.
it would be a great happy storry if the brewers did make the play-offs. the story of a lifetime. I lived that story once. maybe I'll live long enough to see it again.
