what is the "looking through a backwards peace sign" thing that castro and valbuena (and possibly others) do?

 

It's a Bonifacio thing. I remember he and Reyes did it with the Marlins whenever something good happened.

I recant everything. All aboard the Olt train!

Lick my balls kyle

 

I think this kid's got a real future. Wouldn't mind seeing him play every day to get a clearer idea of what we've got.

[GlassCow]

Another ridiculously good plate appearance.

[Elwood]

Beatdown.

[bhogg]

The dbags are terrible

[mul21]

I love JD. "And doing all this without Travis Wood in the lineup tonight."

 

Is Putz one of their better relievers still?

[mul21]

The dbags are terrible

 

No kidding. I'm starting to remember what it feels like to watch an ML team with a chance to win every night out. Can we play these guys about 30 more times?

[Gilby]

Valbuena has a 23% walk rate this year.

[treebird]

it is absolutely stupid that valbuena doesn't take home here

[Schwarber Fan]

lol wtf is ruggiano doing?

[treebird]

really dumb on ruggiano's part.

 

also, how the hell do you score that? does rizzo get a hit since ruggiano made it to the next base safely?

[TruffleShuffle]

i think this lead is big enough that even veras could close the door here.

[Gilby]

Yeah he got a single and the run scored since it was a tag play.

[Schwarber Fan]

[mul21]

Huh, 2 in a row.

[Schwarber Fan]

9-12 by Friday morning would be nice!

[Guest]

I wish they could look this good against the Cardinals.

Vagina?

[Guest]

I hope the Brewers remember that they suck by this weekend.

[Guest]

Very glad I decided to go despite the frigid temps, that was a very fun game overall. Good games from Castro, Rizzo, and Olt, pitching was stellar, and Valbuena saw so many pitches my friend and I couldn't stop laughing by the time his last PA went 8 pitches too. Good times.

[Sammy Sofa]

I hope the Brewers remember that they suck by this weekend.

 

Just take the suspension, Gomez.

[DiamondMind]

valbuena saw 40 pitches tonight
