Things got ugly fast last night thanks to "classy" Joe Torre. He is not taking any blame but he had a pitcher warming up and ready for when Mota was thrown out. Prince is for sure frustrated but it is better than last year when he went after Parra. I still like the guy but I wish he would have went after Mota on the field if that's what he wanted to do. Maybe he didnt want to get suspended however.

It was a good deal and many people jumped on it. In the future I just don't see anyway the Brewers could ever sell out 41 games without deals like this. They are already stretching their population pretty good if you compare them to the bigger cities.

Like already posted, maybe they should look at this kind of play and when a SS, Jeter included, do not touch second base on a DP.

I don't think the OF is that bad. Sure they havent done much so far this year but looking at their career norms, they are sure to come back. You can't go by the amount of money a player makes and expect that production. Once the contract is signed, the fans should just consider the money gone and cheer on their players.

Santana with some tough luck bad D tonight. Mike Burns looked good for the Brewers tonight as well (so far).

Funny that you say that. Watch for Braun in Web Gems tonight as he made a very nice catch. Because we all know that having a web gem totally validates your defensive prowess. Never said that, but your post mocked his defense prowess for tonight. Tonight he made a play that mot many LF could make. I'm hoping you aren't talking about the sliding catch he made where he pointlessly slid to catch the ball. He shouldn't have been involved in that play at all if whoever was playing center wouldn't have backed up on the ball instead of just running in and catching the ball. Then Braun was basically sitting still when he slid to make that catch. If that ball would have fallen in, it would have been one of the worst outfield plays i had ever seen in my life. Seriously, whoever was in center is a horrible center fielder (maybe i'm overreacting and they just had one REALLY BAD read on the ball) Nope I wasn't, there was a different play though it was nice to see Braun cover Cameron for once as Mike got a bad read on the ball off the bat. The slide was unneccessary on that catch however.

That's oner error for Gamel.

Ryan Braun and Ryan Howard are going to be the biggest post-steriod sluggers of this era followed by Evan Longoria.

Gary Sheffield.

God no. All they have are two MVP canidates, a host of other hitters, a bullpen that is deeper than last year, an ace in the making, a deep bench, two pretty good SP, and two servicable ones to round out the staff.
