Wilco and Bill Schroeder: Indie Pals
Little-known fact: For a couple of years right after he got out of the league, Bill Schroeder was a roadie for Uncle Tupelo. You can still see a lot of the alt-country/indie vibe in Bill. Of the two men on the right -- Jeff Tweedy and the Rock -- you really struggle to tell who's the indie rocker and who's the big-league backstop-turned-announcer. I'd be open for Tweedy subbing in as FSN Wisconsin color man on occasion, although the fact that Brian Anderson doesn't seem to want to be photographed with him could be a problem. B.A. thinks jean jackets in the booth are mad unprofessional, and did not approve of Tweedy's banter about advice he received from his father: "Marry a woman that's a little bit fat. That way, everywhere you grab, you'll get something good."

Gallardo unlikely to play for Mexico in WBC
Thank god for insurance issues. Yo's arm should be in good shape to be our ace Macha's No. 3 starter.

Brewers Fans, Meet Your New Trenni!
It's this guy. (And I don't mean Carlos Gomez.)
Not nearly as hot, I must say. But he does have experience in a pennant race. And a now-defunct blog.
(Info from this JSBlog post: Brian Anderson will be the play-by-play man this year, along with analyst Bill Schroeder. Former Brewers first base coach Davey Nelson will provide analysis during Brewers Live before and after the game along with host Craig Coshun and Fox Sports Wisconsin newcomer Telly Hughes.)

Damn You, Jack Z!
The Mariners (led by our ex-draft wiz) just signed Russell Branyan to a one-year deal.
Does this mean we're committing to a Gamel/Hall platoon at third?
EDIT - Deal is for one year, worth $1.4 million with an additional $500k in incentives available.

Our First Free Agent Move of the Offseason
... didn't do anything to address the OBP situation.
Brian Anderson says he signed a five-year extension as PBP guy, and mentions that the Rock has also signed a multi-year deal (but not five?). Perhaps being stiff-armed by TBS hurt Rock's bargaining power. I question this move anyway: Rock's PECOTA projections suggest he will continue to flat-line.

"If anybody needs a day off, it's Ned Yost. He has a lot of things to sort out before he can take a team to the playoffs. He can't be wound this tight and still manage. His players will kill him. I've come close myself. But I like him. He's a little easier to take when you know why he's like he is. The man cannot relax. Pardon my French, but Ned is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond."

Anyone know the provenance of this logo? I hadn't seen it before. (But maybe that's just because I'm not all that old.)
