A Winning Week

A Winning Week

After an absolute disaster week – 2-5 including 4 straight losses to the Pirates and the Padres – the Brewers put together one of the more impressive road weeks in recent franchise history. The Brewers took 5 of 6 from the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks,… [More]

Game 28 Thought: The Diamondbacks Might Have The Best Lineup In The NL

The Brewers are on the last leg of The Road Trip From Hell™ and with a series win against Arizona, they can make it a .500 trip. Unfortunately, Yovani Gallardo, Randy Wolf, and Chris Narveson will have to navigate through possibly the best lineup in… [More]

On Latroy Hawkins’ Velocity

Obviously, LaTroy Hawkins’s appearance in last night’s series finale against the Dodgers was very disappointing. Rob Neyer claimed that he seemed “lost out there” in last night’s Baseball Tonight Live chat. He ended up allowing two hits and a walk to load the bases for… [More]

Brewers 11, DODGERS 3: Davis Pitches Exactly As He Has All Year, Receives Win

Sorry for the late recaps – the west coast times really mess with my schedule. Coming into last night’s game against LA, Doug Davis had an ERA of 8.87 against an FIP of 4.16 and an xFIP of 3.88. Davis continued to pitch much better… [More]

Game 27 Thought: Does Doug Davis’s Luck Turn Tonight?

Doug Davis has struck out 24 batters in 22 innings. He’s walked 10 batters and allowed 3 home runs, which is a few more than you would want. Davis has induced ground balls on nearly 50% of balls in play against him. Simply put, he… [More]

Brewers 11, DODGERS 6: If You Take Away The Second Inning, We Lose 6-2

I’ve been seeing and hearing a lot of talk about how the Brewers offense has been all or nothing this year. It’s basically summed up best in this article, where Tom Haudricort of the Journal Sentinel notes that the Brewers had, entering yesterday’s game, scored… [More]

Game 26 Thought: Kershaw Struggles Against Right Handers

Clayton Kershaw is starting tonight for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He has all the stuff that a staff ace should have – a mid-90s fastball, a sharp slider, and a biting curveball. However, he’s only running an FIP of 4.09 and a xFIP of 4.78…. [More]

Issues, Part 2: On The Field

The Brewers are 10-15. The only way for a team to win only 10 of 25 games is to play very poorly. As early as it is and for as many ridiculous things that can happen in such a small sample of games, there are… [More]

Issues, Part 1: The Standings

After yet another disappointing series against the San Diego Padres, the Milwaukee Brewers will enter the first work week of May with a poor 10-15 record, including three losses out of four to the San Diego Padres over the weekend. There appear to be many… [More]

PADRES 9, Brewers 0: Fun With Odds

I’m not sure what I watched last night, but I’m pretty confident it wasn’t a major league baseball game. 13 singles, no extra base hits? Ground balls just finding hole after hole after hole? I’m not bitter or anything, but please. I thought Doug Davis… [More]
