    Darn, great throw by the Brewers catcher. Good pitch to throw on too. Oh well.

    Miller deserves a better lineup than that. And better construction.

    Miller is a different pitcher than he had been most of last year. He's not just throwing a sinker more but a lot more cutters too. So no longer just a two pitch pitcher like in the past. He's having a lot of success so far with both the sinker and cutter too.

    This is a good article on the topic: http://grantland.com/the-triangle/20...r-new-pitches/

    I think his next step is mixing in his curveball and/or developing his change up.

    Understand the premise, but talent trumps all.

    Not saying i love Braun or anything but if Mil would eat some of the deal, it's something worth considering.

    Nah, we should trade him for Todd Frazier, obviously.

    I like him too. But he wasn't as good last year as in the past.

    It's the "Wait fo my signal, ump" stiff arm between pitches that grates on my nerves. Get. On. With. It.

    Listening on the radio... Mark Lemke sounds like Jame Gumb.

    That hop wasn't that off, AJ has failed to catch a number of throws like that this year. While Bethancourt has caught hops tougher up the line and got outs.

    I still say we should've gave Garcia a shot at third with both KJ and CJ on the DL.
