Game 138: I Shouldn't Be Allowed To Do Game Threads

LUKE23 · Post #1 » by **LUKE23** » Thu Sep 1, 2011 12:27 pm

Maybe it is wrong, but I feel like we lose a majority of the games I do threads on. A grand slam to the pitcher? Unacceptable.

That said, you win today and you're still up 9.5 with only 24 games left.

Get it done Yo.

Why wouldn't Gamel be called up right away?

Following the Milwaukee Brewers' 8-3 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals at Miller Park tonight, the team announced three of its Sept. 1 callups.

Centerfielder Carlos Gomez will be activated off the disabled list, which was the no-brainer move since he'd completed his rehab assignment with Class A Wisconsin.

The other two callups are both rookies who will be making their first trips to the major leagues: catcher Martin Maldonado and centerfielder Logan Schafer.

The right-handed-hitting Maldonado was hitting .328 with eight home runs and 25 runs batted in for the Sounds, while the left-handed-hitting Schafer was hitting .327 with five home runs and 25 RBI.

Manager Ron Roenicke hinted prior to the game that the team's callups would be staggered, so the arrival of Maldonado and Schafer might not be it. One or more players could be added in the coming days as well, depending upon what the Brewers feel they need to strengthen their bench and bullpen.

Infielder Taylor Green, whom the team recalled from Nashville on Aug. 27, collected his first big-league hit with a pinch single to right in the fifth inning tonight.

Cards throwing out a guy today making his first major league start. Can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give Green a start here. Pighee is 4-33 and of course is major league suckage in the field.

These threads have lacked something crucial. Moar Kate Upton.

Green has also faced this dude in the minors so hopefully he gets a start.

Has anyone been tracking who has good records starting game threads? We need to make sure we don't have someone like Luke starting threads in the playoffs.

After further review, I'm 9-4 this year.

Need to take this one today and get back up to 9.5 games. It would make me feel alot better.

Win today and we're still in really good shape. Get swept and then I start to worry a little bit.

Haudricourt Tom
#Brewers pranksters are putting chalk outline of sprawled player on third-base line to commemorate Ryan Braun's spill last night.

Haudricourt Tom
And now #Brewers pranksters are doing a second chalk outline because Braun tried to get up but fell back down. Guess guys still loose, huh?

Pretty funny that Betancourt got hot right at the time when Melvin should've been looking for an alternative and now post deadline, he's back to sucking.

Aaron It Out · Post #19 » by **Aaron It Out** » Thu Sep 1, 2011 5:19 pm

I have had only home series', so I figured my record had to be pretty good.

trwi7 · Post #20 » by **trwi7** » Thu Sep 1, 2011 5:40 pm

I've had @ Washington, @ Boston, @ Pittsburgh, @ San Diego, @ San Francisco. All road series. No wonder my record is so ****.
