Pittsburgh Pirates Ride Walk-Off Wins to Series Victories Over Nationals and Astros
Posted on 14 May 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Fans began to slowly trickle out of the stadium on the rainy and gloomy Mother’s Day game between the Houston Astros and Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park yesterday, with little to cheer about. The Pirates offense looked like they were going to waste another spectacular start by starter A.J. Burnett, trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the ninth. Neil Walker’s second double of the game put the pot...

Pirates Fall to Phillies on Walk-Off Home Run
Posted on 8 Mar 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Pittsburgh Pirates reliever Michael Dubee was going to be a long shot to make the roster, but the outcome today did not help his slim hopes. Dubee came on to pitch the tenth inning, which was most likely going to be the last inning no matter what. Luis Montanez was the first batter scheduled to face Dubee, and was also the last. Montanez hit a walk-off home run off of Dubee to propel the Philli...

Hammel Not Getting Enough Support from Rockies
Posted on 6 Jun 2011 by Steve Folsom.
Jason Hammel has been on the wrong side of a good pitching performance lately. Dating back to May 20th Hammel has pitched very well in 3 of his 4 starts. In those 3 starts, Hammel has gone at least 6 2/3 innings and given up a combined 6 runs, 2 of which were unearned. The first of those 3 starts was on May 20th against the Milwaukee Brewers. Hammel was not spectacular, but he put the Roc...

NL Central Division Looks Like a Year of Looking Over Your Shoulder
Posted on 28 Apr 2011 by Cliff Eastham.
Photo by Jeffrey Phelps/AP After 25 games or so, only 2.5 games separate the top five teams in the Central Division of the National League. What began looking like a wire-to-wire run as the top team, the Cincinnati Reds have faltered and won only four of their last 11 outings. They had lost two of three games to the St. Louis Cardinals over the weekend, and found themselves in third place in ...

Tight games rule the Cubs season early on…
Posted on 11 Apr 2011 by Paul Jackson.
The Cubs lost their second consecutive divisional series this year as the Brewers took two of three from Chicago in Milwaukee. It seems the Cubs are happy continuing nibbling in the early going this season as eight of the nine games so far have been decided by 3 runs or fewer. Jeff Baker had a solid night at the plate in Game 1, collecting four hits and joining Geovany Soto in belting a 2-run h...

Brewers Back To .500
Posted on 10 Apr 2011 by Scott Johnston.
When you start the season 0-4, you take things one thing at a time. I know that’s cliché, but you really do want to win four games in one, and that’s not possible. You have to win, and then win again, and keep it up until you right the ship. Today, Casey McGehee righted the ship, and got the Brewers back to .500 with one swing of the bat. A 2-run shot off the Cubs Kerry Wood in the bottom ...

Brewers, Once Healthy, Looking To Win In 2011
Posted on 31 Mar 2011 by Scott Johnston.
Ready or not, Opening Day is here. For the Brewers, they could probably wait another week or two to get all their guys healthy, but the clock has ticked down to zero and it’s time to Play Ball. Things got off to a difficult start for the Brew Crew early in camp. Within days of each other, All-Star outfielder Corey Hart strained his left oblique, and then catcher Jonathan LuCroy broke his righ...

FBIW#8- Third Base Report
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Mo Johnson.
               The hot corner is a bit of a hot potato this year. The players moving in and out of the position could make you dizzy. Jose Bautista, Martin Prado, Kevin Youkilis, Chone Figgins and even the evil Jhonny Peralta all will be able to claim a number 5 on your fantasy team’s defensive slots. This turns out to be very useful as it propels third out of the shallow ...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Ryan Braun and the Milwaukee Brewers on Paper
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
For the last five seasons, the Brewers have always had a dangerous lineup, but the pitching hasn't always been there. They went out and traded for Zack Greinke and Shaun Marcum. To go along with Yovani Gallardo and Randy Wolf, Milwaukee has one of the better rotations in the National League. The Brewers made the postseason in 2008 because they went out and got CC Sabathia before the trade d...

Prince Likes What He Sees
Posted on 8 Mar 2011 by Scott Johnston.
He’s the biggest guy on the field. Most definitely the loudest. And without a doubt, the one having the most fun. And why not. It’s a good time to be Prince Fielder. His Brewers are stacked offensively starting with Rickie Weeks at the top, Ryan Braun, Corey Hart and Prince in the middle, with a nice helping of Casey McGehee thrown in the mix. And now, they’ve added pitching to the mix. â...

Brew Crew midseason review
Posted on 5 Jul 2009 by Steve Drumwright.
Independence Day marked the halfway point of the season for the Brew Crew. So, what have we learned about a team tied for the NL Central lead? It has become painfully obvious in recent weeks that the Brewers need help in the starting rotation. But C.C. Sabathia isn't walking through the clubhouse doors this year and there doesn't appear to be an equivalent on the market, thanks to...
