10 Scorching MLB Takes 🌶️

Yankees Call Up 6'7" Prospect 📈
- Braden Looper struggled for the first real time in a Brewers uniform, giving up 5 runs and 8 hits, including 2 homeruns over just 3 1/3 frames. The offense fought back, including a pair of RBI by both Prince Fielder and Mike Cameron, and a RBI by Hardy. Milwaukee couldn’t escape the abbreviated roadtip undefeated, but return to Miller Park winners of 4 of the last 5 contests.
Brewers News
- Thursday’s loss came at the hands of a Reds team that’s battling the flu bug. A makeshift Cinncy team bested the Brewers. More HERE.
- A peek inside the mind of Ken Macha. Something tells me a lot of crossword puzzles and model ship building goes on in there.
- Miller Park Movies… AWESOME!!!
- Willie Randolph talks about the difference between playing in Milwaukee in ‘91 and coaching there now. Kind of a cool clip.
- Bleacher Report on Manny Parra apparently being Manny Parra.
- Chris Duffy is one of two reasons Milwaukee has arguably the best defensive centerfield in baseball.
- Not everyone has given up on Brad Nelson quite yet.
- Dedication.
Minor Leagues
- The Rattlers lost… again. But it wasn’t for lack of trying. Cutter Dykstra, Brock Kjeldgaard and Michael Vass went deep in the loss.
- The Sounds beat the Iowa Cubs Thursday. I precursor for things to come in tonight’s Brewer game? We’ll see.
NL Central
- Rich Harden hopes to show baseball he can pitch more than six innings like a big boy. Awwwwww!!!

- Cards OF Rick Ankiel was put on the DL… his injury seems a bit more serious than Oswalt’s.
Other News
- Manny Ramirez was suspended 50 games for PEDs. If you’re just reading this news for the first time right now, you’re lying.
