  1. This doesn't seems accurate. Looking at zips in my area of Wisconsin, the Brewers are listed first at about 66=ish%, then the Cubs and then the Red Sox. The Red Sox? Twins or White Sox maybe...I'd even believe the Cardinals, but I don't know any Red Sox fans. Looking at other areas of the country, it seems the Red Sox are over-represented.

  3. Granderson second again?

  5. A hell of a grab by Holliday. The booth seemed sure it was a rob job, but to me it looked a little short.
  6. Things getting dicey in the 4th.
  7. I think he just wants to be one of the best fans in baseball.
  8. Keith isn't hiding his Cardinal nostalgia much this series.
  9. I guess I didn't realize the hats would be camo, too. Wow.
  10. Curtis batting second mystifies me.

I seem to recall pre-season buzz that they were looking at 2014 as a write-off. I can certainly say that I didn't hear anyone within the Brewers organization mention anything about winning 90 games before the season started. They have every reason to be happy through the first 20ish games with good hitting and outstanding pitching nearly across the board. History would suggest that some of their starters are going to start reverting back to the mean, though. It might be tough for them to hold off these Cards all year.
  12. THE KTE already proving useful...I had no idea this was a four game series.
  13. More bat-flipping and hit-admiration from CarGo. He's not making many friends on other teams. Gomez deserves suspension after brawl

Made me wonder why TC didn't just swap Granderson with Duda. Per Rubin: "Collins decided against moving Lucas Duda to cleanup, saying that he didn't want to overwhelm Duda in the same week where the Mets cleared out first base for him by trading Ike Davis to the Pirates." Seems Terry is more concerned with coddling his players rather than putting them in the best position to win ballgames. Duda will make more than $1.6M this season. Overwhelm him.

  17. I have a hard time agreeing with letting Tejada hit there.
  18. Harper Pulled for Not Hustling, Nats Fall to Cards

So far, they don't look too much different than the teams of the past few seasons. Streaky...an offense that can completely disappear...lots of strikeouts at the plate...trouble winning at home...decent starting pitching...suspect bullpen...many guys with a little promise...stars on the DL...the lions share of hope is still in the minors...free agent acquisitions scuffling...YYYBBB.
  20. Any guesses?
  21. I feel the same way about Gee right now as I did about Dickey in mid-2011. I acknowledge that he has done a tremendous job...but I'm always subconsciously waiting for the wheels to fall off. I was wrong in feeling that way about Dickey and have hopes that Gee can keep up the great work.
