What a Debut!

By: Big Rygg

(And what do we do to cover for Rickie Weeks?)

A Change Has Been Made

By: Big Rygg

Mat Gamel is on his way to Milwaukee to join the 25-man roster. Brad Nelson, who has struggled mightily this season as a pinch-hitter and spot starter, was outrighted to AAA Nashville. In order to get to Nashville, Nelson will have to clear waivers…

Vote for Big Rygg!

Hey everyone!

Our very own Big Rygg is involved in a
contest on a local sports talk radio station. If he wins, he gets to host his very
own two-hour show on the air in June (on a Saturday). But, he can’t win the whole thing if he doesn’t make it out of the first round.

Put That in Your Flask and Let it Make You Pass Out at a Red Light, LaRussa!

By: Big Rygg

Tony LaRussa and the St. Louis Cardinals have made no bones about the fact that they don’t like the Milwaukee Brewers’ brashness nor their postgame celebration…

Brewers/Cardinals Breakdown…

by South Side Rob

The Cardinals are selling newspapers and raising the media attention this weekend by questioning the behavior of the Milwaukee Brewers. As much of a mismatch the Marlins were at home against the Crew, the Cardinals are playing much worse as the numbers will…

Gut Check Victory

By South Side Rob

Just a Monday night contest in Pittsburgh. I worked and watched the game at the same time. The game went pretty fast for the first 7 innings. Gallardo pitched ok but the Brewers were playing short-handed without Braun and Bill Hall had went down with an injury to his hamstring…

Oh, What A Night!

By: Big Rygg

Now here is the other side of the coin when I was speaking about Yovani Gallardo’s start against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Miller Park. A 15–3 drubbing of the Cincinnati Reds is just what the doctor ordered for Manny Parra and the rest of the Milwaukee…
