Randy Woof, 7-1 Lifetime vs Pittsburgh

[Chi_archie]

I only look at the current roster #'s vs the pitchers... I don't care what Wolf may have done against Bay, Giles, Nady, Mclouth, Laroche ect..... its a completely different team.. that being said I think the current roster is hitting about .220 lifetime against Wolf in about 100 ab's Dodgers have never seen McCutch

[Chi_archie]

.221 in 68 abs with 3 homers (2 by andy laroche, but he is out)

[OmgUrMom]

why is pitcher batting 8th?

[Chi_archie]

the Pirates have using that old strategy for the entire season.....

[BatemanPatrickl]

Brewers RL may be a good play.

[Chi_archie]

I don't really have much of any opinion on this game..... everything says to take brew crew.... but I don't like betting on games where bad teams are about to be swept at home.... especially when they scored 1 run in the previous 2 games and are due to break out.

was leaning the over, but I don't like the lineups.... FYI when I checked the wind at 7am it was blowing out to left-center at 7 mph.... should be a nice day there as well

[Brock Landers]

What is keeping Milwaukee from winning that division? They have the bats to compete with anyone, maybe one more very good starting pitcher. Who is their top guy in the minors? Would help to have a better closer too, Hoffman is 5 years past his prime

[Sawyer]

Over 9 for me..

[statnerds]

the only players that matters is Weeks, aka Pirates Killa

63 career HRs

11 vs Pit

yowzers...

[soxwin]

over 9 here also. McCutchen looks like a classic AAAA player. Guy who kills it in the minors but just can't hack it in the bigs. Wolf hasn't been spectacular this year either.

yeah, I agree with the AAAA, although this guy did have 2 or 3 decent starts at the end of last year..... but he didn't come up through the pirates organization (yankee farm club), so I don't know a whole lot about him.... projected as a 4th to 5th starter AT BEST though

[Boner_18]

Got Mil RL in a parlay ($1 lotto ticket-type). Needed something to watch early this afternoon.

[EaglesPhan36]

Bucs suck against Milwaukee. They must drink the Beast before these games or something. I think MIL has won something like 70% of the last 50 meetings. Not sure about the Over, kinda dug it ... but Wolf could handcuff the Pirates and this gets stuck around 8 again.

[Chi_archie]

bucs have lost like 18 straight IN Milwaukee.... its unreal

[Boner_18]

The Beast. Gross. I don't even think they ship it to the east coast anymore. At least not branded under that name...

Brewers have been underachievers for a few years now......HORRIBLE manger for starters, Terrible pitching coach with maddux.......Bullpen has blown a million games for them.......Offense has plenty of potential and does their part.....Some of their starting pitchers have been attrocious (Villanueva,Parra, Bush, Livan, missing a cpl others).

Adding Wolf was good even though they overpaid for him. He will battle and be a good #2 man behind Gallardo who they might be overworking in my opinion.

[Chi_archie]

I drank alot of Milwaukee's best, deep in the woods of Pa at HS parties..... I still don't mind it, and the taste of it conjurs up alot of great memories

We drank Natty in Carlisle. I guess we occasionally got a good deal on a case of Beast Light pounders but for the most part it was kegs of Natty.

[TheCommish]

Love Milwaukee today. Thanks for posting the lineups.

[Chi_archie]

I still drink Natty Ice every once in awhile.....I can drink anything really, after years of hs and college drinking the crappiest of crap beers I don't care....

but my gf loves stuff like Framboise and Flat tire....and dark beers....... I'm just glad she likes beer, so I get it....

that and old German beer were my favorites in the woods parties.......

[Brock Landers]

Archie, how about some Dog Style (old style), or PBR? LOL That shit on par with the worst beers ever...tried some Schlitz in college as a joke, can't believe anyone would drink that crap.

[JMUplayer]

No love for Pabst Blue Ribbon?

[rm18]

bush

[Chi_archie]

gotta drink Old Style at wrigley..... stuff is cricket piss....

[keyboarding]

I'm on PIT ML.

[Chi_archie]

Archie Wolf is from Pittsburgh though that is possibly a factor in his success as well as matchups.

Nah, pretty sure he is from Cali

[3PtShooter]

what !!! No Iron City

[phillip]

PBR is the best as far as cheap beers go.

[Chi_archie]

man I miss Iron city and IC light........ you don't find that too much outside of western pa

[rm18]

I am retarded confused with Dave Bush going back to sleep so I can think about the Oakland and Nationals games better

[Powderguy]

Brew Crew pound McCutchen

[streakyrocket22]

Brew Crew pound McCutchen

I hope so I got the Brew Crew OVER 5 TT runs! Maybe a 10 run first inning ehh??
