    I am very pleased and fairly surprised after some of the comments made by the front office and Macha about how and options and whatnot would also have an effect on who made it and who was sent down (assuming that Duffy is indeed on the 25 man over TGJ). Nice work!! I think they will both be nice additions to the club

    Most of us will probably get it on FSN seeing that it will also be carrying the game, thus blacking out MLBN for us in-staters
  3. GormanHarvey
    Ok thanks - thats what I thought, just wanted to be sure

    Hey Ross - I am placing an order and my fiance wants the JJ Hottie shirt, but I am not sure which is the ringer and which is the caps? She wants the one with just the stripe around the very bottom of the sleeve. Can you tell me which is which? Thanks

    Jeter is a joke. I was going to mention that Hardy's evaluation as a defender at SS is helped by the fact that there just aren't as many SS that get by basically on great defense these days

    No shocker here - Hoffman to the DL: JSOnline link (URL is now linkified - hawing)
  7. GormanHarvey
    Yes she is
  8. GormanHarvey
    Ok - I meant and should have said another very good defender. Man, sometimes the fun can really get taken out of talking baseball on here

    I'm fine with being done with this, but I never said he was average. Actually, I made sure I said that he is above average but not elite. You think JJ has plus range??
  10. GormanHarvey
    Obviously I am not a big stats guy in the sense that some of the people that post on here are. But there are times when my eyes can tell me something that numbers on paper can't. And what they tell me is that JJ's range is limited. He is very, very steady and if he gets to a ball its typically an out - especially with his strong arm. But for a SS to be considered elite for me he has to have range that sets him apart from the pack amongst other things and JJ surely does not have that. Just watch him run the bases - I wouldn't be surprised if Prince could beat him 1st to 3rd. Most SS that are considered elite have great range because they are very athletic and quick (like Furcal). What did the fielding bible say about the Brewers defense out of curiousity? Back to my original point - I am looking forward to having someone on the Brewers that is regarded so very highly for his defense - whether that be at 2nd or SS.

    I have never considered or heard Hardy considered a top notch SS. Above average? Yes Top notch? No. I also feel that if there are people that think the Brewers were an above average defensive team last year, they are probably few and far between. I never said I wanted to lose Hardy. I love having Hardy on this team. It's just a tough call when he really has done to nothing to warrant being asked or expected to move, but not having Escobar play SS, a position at which he could potentially in the top 5 defensively, would seem to be a waste.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I think at this point all it means that with Hoffman on the shelf and likely headed to the DL that both DiFelice and Julio will make the team to begin the season
  13. GormanHarvey
    That is probably true, but at the same time you just don't hear many top prospects say things like that - especially when they are known for their defense at what is arguably the toughest position to play.
  14. GormanHarvey
    That goes without saying. Apparently no matter how I try to express my point you are going to take it apart into tiny pieces. I can't remember the last time the Brewers were considered a strong or above average defensive team and everything on defense starts up the middle so I am just intrigued with a player at the SS position that is considered a top notch defensive player. Cam is the closest thing we have had in a long time and he is past his prime defensively, but is still very good and I thoroughly enjoyed watching every play he made last year and think it would be even more exciting and enjoyable to watch Escobar every day when that day comes. Thats all
  15. GormanHarvey
    You and me both man! Ever since I first saw her on Boston Public!
  16. GormanHarvey
    Thats what I am saying...

    I just meant he has the skills to be considered what you would imagine as gold glove caliber. I know a lot of times players that are good offensively and solid defensively get the gold glove over someone that was better but only defensively. Was really referring to the idea of him being considered that caliber more than literally referring to him as someone that gets it and doesn't deserve it. I mean, when was the last time the Brewers had a player that was deemed worthy of gold glove consideration?
  18. GormanHarvey
    I don't want to see Hardy leave, but at the same time I would hate to deal away a guy that can potentially be the Brewers first gold glover in how long??
  19. GormanHarvey
    I agree with you NDOG about preferring JJ at 3rd if they move him, but that topic has been discussed here if you are looking for some more opinions on the matter: http://forum.brewerfan.net/viewtopic.php?t=17726
  20. GormanHarvey
    Man that guy sure has fallen a long way. It's too bad because his attitude was good for the game when things were going better for him
  21. GormanHarvey
    A bit of news on Braun - he hit a 3 run HR off of Brian Fuentes today in the AAA game. Very encouraging! Hmmm, I get the sense people are getting a bit sick of the extended ST seeing as I seem to be posting to myself on this thread... http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/42086582.html
  22. GormanHarvey
    And the Brewers win 1-0. Don't see that too often in ST. Nice showing from the pitching staff
  23. GormanHarvey
    Aside from maximizing his value and considering his tremendous talent at the SS position, I am shocked to hear him even say that. Even if it wouldn't be the smartest thing for him career-wise/business-wise, its pretty selfless of him. Kudos to Alicdes!

    Love the McClung shirt - will be ordering!
  25. GormanHarvey
    Love almost all of the New Glarus beers - can't stand dancing man wheat though
