Jonathan Lucroy

[Ned Clampett]

_ Yes..this year he caught RW in a game and Wolfe was starting the pitch calling sequence over, rolling his glove around. I said "Here we go again." That's ok. Lucroy will be catching in the big leagues long after RW has hung up his cleats. _

Dad, dont Wolfe sort of call his own pitches? I thought I read somewhere about him using HIS signals to tell the catcher what was going to be thrown where. I may be wrong. He seems like a pompous SOB.

He's a veteran in his 13th MLB season. He's gunna throw what he wants, when he wants. I've read a few articles and heard the Brewers announcers talk about Wolfe. All anyone will say is he "has a complicated set of signs." His ERA is under 3 and he starts every 5th day like clock work. It's Randy's world. I think he's sorta big leagueing jon, between you and me.

"It's like he knew what was coming."

"Because he did, MEAT." "You know how he knew it was a fastball? I told him!"

I agree. There are a few factors affecting the situation including Jon's rookie status, Wolfe's success this year and the Manager's first year in the big leagues. This team was picked to win this year and nobody wants to rock the boat. Wolfe's got all the juice right now.

Some good Lucroy quotes after a 3 of 4, 3 RBI game yesterday. Tells a lot about his character

Padres can't overcome 8-run hole as Brewers hold on in 9th

MILWAUKEE -- Jonathan Lucroy was in no mood to celebrate a career night.

The Brewers catcher believed his poor handling of his starting pitcher allowed the San Diego Padres to nearly rally from an eight-run deficit, got hit in the jaw on his own foul tip and made a baserunning mistake that ran his team out of a big inning.

"Good thing we scored a lot of runs because I'm not happy with the way the game went pitching wise, me calling the game," Lucroy said. "They scored way too many runs for what I want. We shouldn't give up that many and I take a lot of that on myself."

Lucroy tied career highs with three hits and three RBIs and Shaun Marcum won his fourth straight decision, lifting Milwaukee to an 8-6 victory over the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night.

"I got three hits. Great, grand, wonderful. Who cares," Lucroy said. "We still have things we need to work on. There's things, defensively, I need to work on to help our staff get better."

He has the top BA of a "regular" catcher. Four back-ups have hit more often. Plus he gets to catch Greinke every five days, who is a wizard, witch and warlock. Somebody pinch him...second thought don't.
