Well theres not much to say. Rickie was advised to stay out a couple more days, so I'm hoping we get another shot at seeing TGJ up top. Obviously we want to get a win to still have a chance at winning the series (not to mention breaking out of this slide). Get the bats going early and get the probably sold-out crowd going as well.

Hopefully TGJ will be batting leadoff, and i really hope that Rickie can get back ASAP so we don't have to see Crappinino or K-OUTnsell anymore. I hope TGJ really provides a spark and convinces Yost to get him a lot of playing time.

I bet Jenkins is benched for this one. I would start Mench, TGJ and Gross.

he has struck out more times lately than some joke i don't know, so i wouldn't be surprised with him being sat. gross in the game works for me too. i'd rather see billy in there to try and get going than mench though

You would start Mench against a right hander? Well you are brave. I'd sit Mench's ass until he learns how to take a friggin' walk. .270 OBP is ridiculous.

hooray, brewers lineup is correct

[goirish2107]

jj hits number 14 to left, 1-0 crew

[goirish2107]

[SugarRay34]

4 LETTER WORD TO TORRI HUNTER

[Buck You]

[SugarRay34]

JJ Hardy with the horse sh** throw. 3-1 Twins

couldn't have put it better myself

[goirish2107]

c'mon boys lets get some offense

[Buck You]

[goirish2107]

johnny estrada, last in the league in pitches per plate appearance

[WEFFPIM]

You can't be shocked by this craptacular offense, Baker was just called up from AAA, the Brewers can never hit these guys

i see that as a problem, not an excuse to underperform. but not, i'm not shocked

[goirish2107]

Brian Anderson re Johnny Estrada: "Yeah he never swings at the first pitch". I hope that was sarcasm (anyone else hear it)?

[goirish2107]

man the bottom of this lineup can be disgusting when Jenks/Estrada aren't hitting.
