    Am I the only one who sees the Myers/Lieber move as a way to showcase Lieber for a trade?? With Lieber coming out of the bullpen sporatically there was no way to drum up any interest or show that he can still be a somewhat valuable starter.

    It's exactly what it is and the other 4 starters can't move to the bullpen like Myers can (Moyer age, Hamels you don't want to ruin him, and Eaton and Gracia too fragile)

    The thing is Lieber should have been traded in Dec.

    Exactly...when did Lieber become this "stud" pitcher that other teams want!?!?

    you dont move your opening day starter into the bullpen to showcase a 37 year old.

    why fuck with myers? why tinker with a proven commodity that is still a work in progress? to showcase a pitcher on the downside of an average career?


    no matter how you look at this it is a blunder. they have had plenty of time to shore up the bulpen, and they have had plenty of time to move leiber. and instead of signing a proven below average pitcher like eaton they could have used that $ on the bullpen, and kept lieber in the rotation?

    i just dont like it, going into the season Brett Myers was supposed to be one of the young anchors on this team.

    Personally, they should move Myers. I still don't like him after the whole wife beating incident in Boston last year and don't root for him.

    i couldnt agree more, he is a peice of shit.

    however, if he is going to be on the roster then he should at least be in the right position.

    what about them? ;) they took 2 from a bad reds team, and beat a team last night that had to travel 1500 miles for 1 game. i am glad they have won a few, and i am glad they are scoring, but i take it with a grain of salt. lets see what happens when they lock up with NY and ATL.

    side note, i have moyer in the fantasy lineup tnight against the pathetic nationals. i am hoping for a shut out :D

    no thanx, i heard it is ridiculous at college night, i was talking to a girl the other night that went to the last one and she said it was pathetic. a friend of mine (fellow jammer) is headed up though.

    i think i am going sunday if the weather is nice.

    i sure did, when you get the news the big fella has a leg problem i get a little concerned. perhaps Howard having an injury doesnt bother you?

    at the moment 2 key bullpen guys and howard are on the DL. so i think it was fair to say
  • my2handsmy2hands Posts: 17,117
    I was at the game last night. College night was no where near the problem people had been talking about, at least from what i saw. great energy in the stadium. great weather and a great game.

    and the hilight of the night had to be the girls. screw the ruiz homerun. there has never been that many hot girls in the stadium. NEVER. it was like a DMB concert :p


    i like how the team is responding to the injuries and the red hot brewers. i really do. 2 big wins, lets try to steal another one tonight!

    Uh, the highlight last night was not the girls, but rather the fact that Greg Dobbs has replaced David Bell as our resident Phillie/PJ fan.

    He came up to bat twice with Hail, Hail playing and homered the first time it came on.

    Article in today's newspaper listed music some of the Brewer players like. Damian Miller our backup catcher loves PJ. He lists WWS AND Long Road as his favorites. They play WWS when he comes up to bat in Miller Park. :)

    Should be another great game tonight. Best of luck to both teams. :D
