Brewers at Cubs - 6/29/07

[Ayt]

Yo has been fantastic today considering he hasn't had his best stuff. I just hope Yost doesn't get greedy and leave him out their too long. If he has trouble to start the 7th, get him the **** out of there.

[Ayt]

Cool, they took him out.

[MickeyDavis]

Froemming has always been one of the worst umps.

That strike 2 to Soriano was not strike 2

I know. He's horrible. We got the break on that one but Froemming is terrible. I hope the retirement talk I've heard about him is true.

Agreed.

It's funny the 2 best players in Milwaukee names could end up being Yo, Yi

[MadCityBucky]

Turnbow and Cordero time?

Yo is a great pitcher. He reminds me so much of a healthy Prior. Prior's fastball was usually between 90-94, but it was one of the best in the league because it was always on the black or a little too low to hit anywhere or a little too high to get around on. He also had basically an identical breaking ball to Yo which they throw between 74-80 with a nice sharp break. Then Yo has that nice change.

Prior was my favorite pitcher back in the day because he was such a surgeon out on the mound, giving guys nothing good to hit on most days. Yo looks the same way to me, though he obviously didn't have the great command of his fastball today. The kid has Cy Young potential though once his career progresses because he knows how to hit his spots and he knows how to change speeds to keep guys off balance. You can see why he hardly ever gave up a homer in the minors because guys just never get good wood on his pitches since they are always off balance and most of the pitches are on the black.

[mnstinks]

come on D Bow!

[MadCityBucky]

Huge K for Turnbow this time

[Ace Villa]

it just seems like that with turnbow nothing is ever easy. there's always a walk or a couple of hits in the inning. it makes me very uneasy any time he's pitching

[treyZz]

Froemming is terrible.

That was not a strike on Braun.

Lol @ Braun "that's a strike? OH MY GOD."

Judas! I knew I could never trust a caveman.

I think that is a good comparison. The first time I saw him pitch I thought of Mussina actually.

[Nowak008]

Cordero is shaky again.

[MadCityBucky]

God damn it

Looks like i gotta eat my words

[Nowak008]

facking cubs.

[MadCityBucky]

Why didn't we just intentionally walk Ramirez who was playing well?

[livestrong4ever]

Gotta get a win tommower with Benny going.
