Brewers fire their manager

[Beau Vine]

Does this count as a "panic move?"

Not even George Steinbrenner pulled this one.

This is funny/odd/stupid.

I'm looking at the "oddities" and am at odds.

1) I agree that Counsell and Nix are not my ideal 2-3 hitters, but is getting two runs off Jake Peavy an example of failure?

2) As for Kapler making outs with the bases loaded twice, seems to me that's a general problem with Kapler, not the fact that he hits in a particular spot.

If Bill James weren't taken, he'd be all over the Money Order.

Chuckie Carr.... it's been a long time.
