That Weeks/Luc flip flop should be worth 2-3 extra runs...
Tim Welke behind the plate.
Well, I can hear the FBombs at the trump household already ... god I dislike that SOB behind the plate. Arrogant deliberate arbitraitor of the strike zone.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Yo gets in trouble early in the game and throws a LOT of pitches early. Now, for Yo that is always possible but Welke damn near guarantees it.

Jean Segura opens Brewers' first with a 2run bomb.
5-1 Crew
5-1 Crew
I do believe that is looking like a good trade.
I sure wish Aoki could hit left handed pitching, right
again, I'll say it, who moved this guy to second? I know he was blocked, but a shortstop with instincts is a shortstop with instincts. The hot streak he is on is just gravy.
wonder if Gallardo can break Drysdale (I think) record for HR by a pitcher in the NL with 7. Has 2 already with just over 1/7 of the season finished
Just heard useless but cool stat on TV broadcast that Brewers became first team since '58 Gisnts to have 5 homers and 3 triples in same game. Historic!!!
Is it too early to think about extending Segura? How long is he under contract for?
How good can this team's line-up be when Ramirez and Hart return? WOW! Who needs pitching...lol. The biggest stat of the night--we are now +1 in runs scored for the year--versus runs allowed.
If we can get the closer thing worked out...playoffs are possible.
Maybe in July a good one will become available and Axford and Henderson will be great guys for the 8th inning.

Ah...no. Love Segura.
Gallardo has started to come around after a brutal start to the season, and that's good news for the Brewers.
Not sure what the Brewers record is against Wandy Rodriguez but he usually seems to pitch well against Milwaukee. Not so much last night.
For whatever reason Milwaukee just seems to have the Pirates number. Keep it going!

Find a post where I stated that. A little more effort and your post should have said, "yeah
Anyway,
Now remember the process!

6 years of player control.. I think you wait at least 2 seasons before you look into buying some of his free agency years.. He wasn't expected to hit like this so let's see him do it for an extended time before we give him the Braun treatment.
I'm loving the kid, but trying to stay realistic.

Sorry, I was thinking of Tim McClellan(spelling ?) ... but Yo was true to form anyway.

Agree, there is no rush unless he really wants to get into some guaranteed money at a club discount.
I'm cool with that given how long he's under contract. Just didn't know. Thanks for the knowledge.

Was that the guy who umped the last Yo performance?
I am cautiously optomistic about the return off Rami since he is annually a bad hitter the first two months of the season....yes, I know he was doing well when he was injured. It could very well be that he is starting his season over; we will see.
With Corey, it will be nice to have our 6th first sacker this season and he is the best one we have defensively. Offensively, it is anybody's guessl

What gives you that impression? In terms of defense only, I will take a ****ty SS over a RF at 1rst base 99 times out of 100. The only thing Hart has going for him over Yuni is his length.
hmm, I would take Corey over Yuni at first base any day.
I would probably take Corey with a bum knee at short on most days.

Too late. Along with help from a blown call on what should have been a double play.
How long before Segura hits for the cycle? He has speed for the triple, power for the homer, hits to the gaps for doubles and makes contact for singles. He does it all.
Pretty entertaining game. Segura just launched one to tie things up at 8.
Estrada was pretty much

Ugh. Two guys on with nobody out and they get nothing?

Are you serious?
Corey Hart was a god-send last year at 1st, he is a natural 1st baseman ... and a damn good one.
Yeah, Betancourt is going to have a shelf life. It's great for now- but Hart is going to be important down the stretch. Great finish to the month- after that start, a tremendous correction. Get the sweep today and start building May up!
