Re: NLDS Game 1: BrewCrew (Gallardo) @ Phillies (Hamels) 2:00 CT

[Soul]

With Hamels pitching today and Sabathia tomorrow, 1-1 is expected. The key game in this series will be game 3 (moyer vs. bush)

 

I still think there's an opportunity for the Phils to beat CC. They're a better hitting ballclub than what CC has been facing since he came to the NL (for the most part), and CC has got to be at least a little worn out.

... and Corey Hart breaks up the no-no.

Brewers are taking their hacks.

Milwaukee is an aggressive team, I didn't think Weeks was going to hold up on that change with two strikes. Milwaukee has to focus on the outer 3rd of the plate, they're not going to get his timing down, at least lock in on a location and since his velo. isn't strong enough to overpower on the inner 3rd as well as Mil. being a good inside FB hitting team, they need to lock in a location.

What exactly is a "winning-type player"?

[Post Count Padder]

Please tell me they did not just say "Every team needs a Craig Counsell-type player."

They did.

 

Apparently he does everything right...except for the whole hitting thing.

Counsell, Eckstein, Orlando Cabrera evidently

Hamels is getting a bit squeezed here. Let's see if Bill Hall bails him out with a DP.

Brewers suck

[Little Slide Rooter]

Hall strikes out, and here comes Braun with 2 out and 2 on. Of course, all of this probably happened 15 minutes ago because MLB Scoreboard sucks.

The same definition as a player who is called a "gamer."

[Little Slide Rooter]

Brewers pen has been pretty solid as of late, aside from Torres.

[cbbryan]

Smoltz needs a hair piece.

[Outshined_One]

Oh God, no. FrankTV.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[cubscausestress]

Oh God, no. FrankTV.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

i'm afraid so. 3 per break.

[cbbryan]

Hamel is a good pitcher.

[UMFan83]

The Brewers offense hasn't been the least bit intimidating since late August.

 

I'm serious.

[Derwood]

CUBS CAN HAZ COLE HAMULZ PLZ KTHX

[Outshined_One]

I'm glad the Cubs ended up not facing the Phillies in the first round. Cole Hamels is pretty darn good.

[Brian]

slick fielding JJ

Lidge in.
