Thursday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while maintaining a singular focus. Yesterday was a pretty big day for managerial news, so let's jump right into it: Ken Rosenthal tweeted that the Brewers plan to interview about ten candidates, and Dodgers AAA manager Tim Wallach and former Indians manager Eric Wedge have...
Thursday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while planning ahead. We got a little more insight into the Brewer managerial search yesterday. In an interview with ESPN Milwaukee, Doug Melvin told Tom Haudricourt he'd prefer to hire a manager with experience, and again expressed his desire to pick a "proven winner:" When...
What A Horrible Day To Have A Curse!
Open up your imagination, gentle reader, and walk with me for a moment on a journey that's probably slightly longer than it needs to be but does have a point at the end if you stick with it that long. Imagine tonight you awaken from a deep sleep, and feel a strong urge to go to Miller Park*. You...
Washington Nationals: Not In The Playoffs Report.
• I don't think the proprietor of the SBN's Cubs blog, Al at Bleed Cubbie Blue, makes much of the mention of the Washington Nationals' job opening in an article about Cubs' announcer Bob Brenly's interest in returning to the bench, since he starts a fan post about Chicago Tribune.com writer...
Baseball And Human Nature: Cubs vs. Phillies Preview, Wednesday 8/12, 7:05 CT
Bob Brenly has become a popular announcer in his five seasons (yikes, can it really be five seasons already?) paired with Len Kasper on WGN and CSN. Part of this is because he's never pulled punches about criticizing Cubs players for what he thinks is a lack of hustle. I'm not posting this to...
Tuesday's Frosty Mug

Wednesday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read before rediscovering the greatness of the Swedish Chef. In honor of the Chef, let's open today with a Sabathia Smorgasbord. Jimmy Rollins (via Jon Heyman) thinks Sabathia won't be able to resist the money the Yankees will offer. In-Between Hops sounds like he's trying to...
Monday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while enjoying pumpkin yogurt. Still no official news on the managerial front, but as noted in the Fanshots, Tom H. seems to think Ken Macha is the frontrunner. Chuckie Hacks still prefers Bob Brenly, and has the following to say about Macha: Plus, as mentioned in this...
Friday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while waiting for your Game Boy shirt to get here. I haven't seen it confirmed anywhere else, but Goat Riders of the Apocalypse is reporting the Brewers have offered their managerial job to Bob Brenly. If Brenly is the guy then this point is somewhat moot, but On the Mets...
Thursday's Frosty Mug
Currently tenth on Google's depth chart for cheap weird handled mugs. So I learned to spell Zduriencik just in time to write about his departure. Some bullet points from around the web this morning: Tom H.'s initial announcement. Between the Green Pillars says thank you. The Brew Town Beat...
