Yeah I know baseball is ruined and ther Brewerw are almost as severly hampered by Princess Prieb as they are the lack of revenue sharing, but Im still excited. I am probably crazy but I think the Crew should be .500 this year and if Sheets, Wright, Quevedo, and Nuegebaur pitch up to their potential and we dont swing at everything, I think the crew can win 90 and be in the wild card race late, which is something we havent seen in a long, long time. They must finish over .500 to avoid 10 years straight of losing seasons. I think it is time for a coup to remove Princess Prieb.

Kona. Just how many errors did Bauers have last nite? Some say 2 some say 1 and on B/ R they say 3. Last night I saw 3.
Sorry Carpio but I just listened to the game at a Charity event last night. I did see two of the plays in question on highlights and they were definitely errors in my mind.
Was helping out a neighbor today so just saw bits/pieces of the game. Did come in to see the 8th/9th innings. How Sweet !!!!! There was another catcher this spring in the Cactus League that was tearing the cover off the ball for the Crew and was not sure Sanchez should even make the club. I was way off base on that thought. Yeah, he will not hit for average or high On Base Percentage but he has had some big hits for the Crew.
Similar comment on Ortiz's play so far. Once again, will admit I was not happy with the Corbin Burnes trade (timing and our return from the Orioles). The Pitcher/DL Hall really struggled but Ortiz has been solid. Great defense and he has a good avg/OPS and On-Base %.

IT IS TIME!!! I am going to crack a beer, early, to celebrate. THANK YOU, BREWERS. My loudmouth friend will have to listen, for once. I just hope I can be a loudmouth drunk tonight!!! What a good feeling. Brews are better with the Crew! Can somebody tell me where Chicago is???? Who is Craig Counsel??? I might not have a friend after tonight. WHO CARES!
I hope Murphy settled deep in your heart Kona!
Putting Ortiz in lead off was inspired. Yes there are pitching issues but he’s no control over injurys. Murph’s got these guys believing, stealing bases, playing hard everyday. Stuff like Bauer just plain getting psyched out after error #1 yesterday is gonna happen. But check out Turangs hitting turnaround, Ortiz becoming a fielding, hitting 3rd sacker, the incredible plays by Perkins etc. And as you mentioned the whole time working with a patch work of starting pitching. Yeah it could all come tumbling down on us, but our division is ripe for taking. After todays big game( and i’m not going fishing till games over) the series with Phillies will tell us alot.
I used to be just a casual Brewer fan but now become rabid. Murphys done that anyway haha
