Thoughts from twirlz world:
Now I don't want to rub it in but I told you that Johnny Cueto is awesome. I'd take that dude over Homer Bailey anyday.
Who would've thought Dave Bush, the same Dave Bush with a 10.13 ERA would have the lower ERA of the two starting pitchers? With that said I fully expect Josh Fogg to have a 4.15 ERA by the end of tomorrow for me mentioning this.
Gagne, less fastballs across the heart of the plate. K thx.
Our plate discipline is still pathetic. Way to make Weathers work a 6 pitch 9th inning, guys.
Yay we won yesterday. I'm so happy.

You bitch about the yellow font but not the cyan?
Just highlight it.

I hope we win of course. But
if our first 2 loses of the season are both games that Bush is the starting pitcher in.

Also, isn't this game also getting bumped for the Sucks? I thought I heard it was but I hope I'm wrong.

With how Kapler is playing, I say screw this platoon thing in center - at least until Gwynn comes back. Kapler has a hot bat right now and is better defensively than Gross.

The sucks aren't on TV tomorrow. Brian said during the broadcast that this game is in FSN-HD.

.263/.327/.397/.724
.259/.351/.432/.783
Those are the two players that will get playing time while Gwynn is still out and their stats in their careers vs right handed pitchers. Which one should play?

The one who is playing out of his mind right now.

Bush better be pitching for a job. On the post game show tonight (4/8) Tim and Sparky seem to think that Bush will be moved to the pen when Yo gets back. Tim also thinks that something is going on with Turnbow (aka he is going to get traded), Sparky thinks that they just don't trust him.

See if we did that Tony Gwynn Jr. would've been playing a ton last year while he was "hot" while Corey Hart sat. Oh wait, that did happen and it was stupid.

Well I'm sure you'll stand out in the crowd. It's fairly uncommon to be at a Brewers game with a Brewers jersey and hat on.

Always got to get a shot in on Gwynn. Okay I understand what your saying but Hart is one of the best players on the team while Gross is not and never will be...obviously neither is Capler but he is swinging a hot bat right now. I think this is a different situation.

The jersey would be tough to find you but because of the hat we shouldnt have any problems finding you.
