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...
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...

Monday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while waiting for lunch. If all had gone according to plan, the Brewers would be enjoying an off day on the road today and getting ready to open a series with the Astros tomorrow. Instead, they're in St. Louis waiting for tonight's makeup game, and probably won't get to...
Tuesday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while waiting for something to load. The Brewers won again in dramatic fashion last night, in a game that saw the return of Ryan Braun but an injury to Bill Hall. In a move that surprised more or less everyone, Hall started in left last night in place of Braun, and lasted all...

Dave Bush's Gas Tank
Josh ("dixieflatline") looked at Dave Bush's fatigue and quick dropoff in fastball velocity last season, and we know how quickly things can go bad for him late in his starts. We have spent lots of time looking for trends and patterns that might give us a clue as to when he is about to implode....
Tuesday's Frosty Mug
Some things to read while preparing an extra special dinner for Opening Day. FanGraphs Scoreboard Unfortunately, today's big story may turn out to be the weather. As I write this, it's 54 and cloudy in San Francisco, but it's going to rain and perhaps thunderstorm this afternoon and well into the...
On Keys For 2009
So, as I've mentioned previously, 2009 is scheduled to be Rickie Weeks' breakout year, for the third consecutive season. It could be the year when Corey Hart puts it all together and becomes a perennial All Star. It could be the year Dave Bush makes the transition from inning-eater to ace. It could...
