5/19/2004 - Brewers (Santos) at San Juan Expos (Kim)

Nothing like a little monsoon to end a hitting streak. Small shame is all that is...Anyways, back to above .500. I love it.

I think it's been brought up that Jenkins will be hitting a streek anyday now about a thousand times. What if he doesn't? I didn't like that extension when they signed it, and I don't liek it now.

Then he doesn't, what are we going to do? Nothing.

If he doesn't hit a streak, then they can't trade him, can't cut him, can't replace him, can't renogotiate. So, I guess the only thing you can do is sit and complain about the extension we gave him.

 

I like to think that every game is the game Jenkins will start off his streak, and I will think that until the last week of the season. But that is just me and the Brewers will keep puttin' him in the 4 spot.

 

The one thing he and Butch can do is keep working on refining the swing just like every hitter should do.

 

Jenkins is a hitter, he will hit if healthy.

Butch has been working with Jenkins a lot so far.

 

I heard they are working on his front leg, which he is putting to much weight on. When he's going he keeps all of the weight on the back foot and explodes through the ball. He'll get there. It's May not August.
