    The Brewers are dog shit.

    Getting drilled 10-0 by a team that has lost 11 in a row on the road.

    Easiest homestand. LMAO.

      I told a guy at work today I had a feeling the Crew would lose and that Gallardo isn't the same, but stupidly took them anywhase.

      I think they will take tomorows with Greinke, but Sazmarja is the kinda pitcher that gives the Brewers fits. Could very well lose 2/3.

        Bigd thats why they dont play the games on paper. Brewers favored every game and 1-3 so far...

        Dempster has owned milwaukee at times, and cubs/brewers you can throw out records and trends, lot of weird games/series between these 2

        People take this stuff way too seriously, i even said in the first post just because it looked easy doesnt mean they wont screw it up

          I would have played them tonight but it was too much juice for me. Dodged a bullet. I'll probably take them tomorrow.

            Brewers are done. I knew they were going to take a step back, but this is bad. Will be curious to see if they move Greinke if they can't get a deal done with him. I wonder if they can move Randy Wolf and possibly Nyger Morgan. Will be curious to see Greinke pitch tomorrow since i will be at the game.

              Greinke is something like 20-1 at miller park

              If i had to lay a big number on milwaukee it would be tomorrow, maybe the -1.5?

                Well, it's a big number for sure -200ish. Maholm is a soft tossing lefty who the Brewers have fared well over the years while he was with Pitt. But given the current state of the Brewers, I would probably pass even with Greinke....maybe throw some SBR points on it to make it more exciting.

                  Yeah even without all the injuries i think people really underestimated the value of fielder. He was probably worth 10-15 more wins/season than an aramis ramirez, in part by making everyone else better and making it a fun atmosphere, and in part by smacking a lot of hrs and taking a lot of intentional walks

                      I said if i had to lay a big number, that would be the game to do it given the pitching matchups.

                      Why did you have to make such a dickhead comment?

                            Agree Brewers are dog $hit this year time for Milwaukee fans to look forward to football season and the Packers.

                              Brewers are trash, Braun's roid abuse saga is affecting the whole team. See, being a steroid and PED junkie affects the whole team not just yourself

                                frogs so because of the braun drama (which wasn't roid abuse) gomez, lucroy, izturis, narveson, estrada, etc etc all decided to get hurt, weeks forgot how to hit, and prince fielder went to detroit?

                                  Milwaukee Mike...
                                  I understand that you are a big Brewer's fan
                                  but the defense of Braun's PED use is still curious.
                                  The use is postive by test but the delivery method of the
                                  same test was ruled spurious.
                                  I hope that the Brewers pick it up going forward so that your
                                  summer is more enjoyable. The fortunes of being a fan is a roller coaster ride.


                                  I think Greinke is a solid wager at home tonight.
                                  (Get it while you can...I don't see him in a Milwaukee uniform come July 31.)

                                  Totally agree on the underestimated value of Prince to the Brewers , both on the
                                  field and in the dugout/clubhouse. But the financial reality of small market clubs will keep
                                  rosters in flux.

                                    braun passed a ton of tests, his hr/rbi totals are amazingly consistent, and the only test he failed (which he denied from the start) was possibly tampered with by some dude and his son while they held on to it for 44 hours.

                                    if he was declared not guilty through arbitration (first time ever), doesn't have the appearance of someone on peds, etc etc then i am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

                                    look at mcgwire/sosa/bonds hr totals over their career, then look at braun.

                                        You know I'm your biggest fan, MM, but the guy was pretty respected in his field and was there for a long time and never had any problems. What makes you think he has this huge vendetta against Braun and would risk his job and going to jail even tampering with urine? I just don't see it.

                                        He was obviously on something.

                                          same reason everyone does everything
                                          MONEY

                                          you are using an argument for the tester that he never had any prior problems, but cannot use the same argument to give braun the benefit of the doubt?

                                            Braun has multi-millions to gain from using steroids, like every other MLB player who has done it.

                                            You're saying some guy paid the transporter? But who? No real suspects there unless Braun was porking some guy's wife.

                                              if the tester was so great and smart, then why did he wait until after a saturday game to perform the test, when he knew there was no drop off location open?
                                              test could've easily been given before the game, the day before, etc etc

                                              the guy did this for a long time and knew the rules. having the only other "independent" person as his son doesn't help matters either.

                                                You're saying some guy paid the transporter? But who? No real suspects there unless Braun was porking some guy's wife.
                                                i'm saying it's entirely possible that someone paid the dude. much more likely than braun testing twice as high as anyone in history without looking like it. if my car crashed twice as hard into a tree as anyone in history, yet didn't look like it had a scratch, i would question that.

                                                  and yes it sucks that we don't know all the details

                                                  braun should just come out and say "i was taking too much herpes medication and it spiked the test, the easiest defense was that the chain of custody was broken" if that's the case.
                                                  if that's not the case, then we should get the full details that the dude's son rubbed cream on his pecker while he peed in a cup and they switched the stickers.

                                                    Why did you have to make such a dickhead comment?

                                                        Common sense seems to indicate that if MLB is unhappy with the ruling, and MLB has a ton to gain by having their MVP be not guilty, then it doesn't quite add up well for Braun.

                                                            It is rather inviting to needle those who pop off about games of the year and locks (not saying you guys do) and those who scream for attention with their posts. They bring it on themselves.
