It sucks we punted this week. The schedule over the next month is not easy.

Cruz with the hardest hit ball in the stat-cast era. Good lord.

Unlikely win, I'll take it.

Caleb Durbin has been having better at bats and results lately. Hopefully he's turning a corner and it isn't just a blip

Hes not Novak but hes awful on the mic also. How can our local teams not get likeable guys on the broadcasts that played here.

Rottino is so much better than Dillard. They should just let Dillard go and let Rottino do games when Rock isn't on the call

Agree. Dillard can do the pre and post games, which I don't watch.

These announcers—Dillard, Rottino, Novak—they’re young and green. They need seasoning. Right now, though, they’re missing that elusive X factor. Is that something you’re born with, or can it be developed over time? Not sure. Stay tuned!

I remember people hating Paschke for a long time, and hating BA & Rock when they first started with the Brewers. I'm sure experience helps

I think so and I’m working to give them some room to breathe. Rock used to really annoy me but he’s evolved (frankly, so have I). I value and respect his insight and point of view. I feel like we are pretty lucky to have him (and obviously BA when he’s around).

I guess what I’m trying to say is I need me to extend some of the same grace to Vinny and Tim.

Tim and Vinny could get better. Novak will never get better. He loves to hear himself talk and hasn't improved at all.

Tim is awkward but Vinny comes off like a dick. I prefer Tim but neither are anything special. I think Levering has gotten a lot better.
