i don't think they've announced the final vote players yet. I feel like they usually go all pitchers or all hitters with those.
-
Prince gets the start at 1B edit: i meant in the all star game.
-
Seems like a pretty big risk just to give Rickie a day off in the field, unless the team is comfortable with giving Gamel a bit of a run at 3B because McGehee has been so bad. Can't use the DH after today, so maybe they want to try and find somewhere for him. Allstar selection show is on TBS right now, just so everyone knows. I'm sure itll be really long and drawn out, but whatever.
-
Or forget how to play 3B hopefully...because he's starting there today.

Betancourt singled with one out. On the next play Kotsay flew to center and for some reason Betancourt decided to tag and go to second. The throw beat him by a LOT, but he popped out of his slide and tried to hop over the tag. Casilla probably got him on the leg, but they called him safe. Then Lucroy singled and Betancourt scored.

oh well. it's so good it's worth posting twice.

aw, times I'm upset I'm not in Wisconsin and I watch the games on MLB.tv include right now. no plush post game for me http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif.

untuck.

i seriously need to find a place that can change my bill hall jersey (gulp) to a tony plush jersey.
-
if someone kept watching a game that was 7-0 in the 4th, deep down somewhere they believed it. or they're just really bored.
-
there always are. easy trip, lots of transplants in minny as well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY T PLUSH
-
i dont think so. Counsell isn't hitting well, it puts the tying run in scoring position and avoids the DP ball. oh well, hindsight is 20/20
-
very true. and im surprised roenicke isn't sac bunting here. not saying it's right or wrong, just what I would have expected.
-
I'm interested to see who's in the on deck circle. do you put McGehee up there? Counsell has looked awful tonight, and McGehee at least has some pop (in theory)
-
god, prince crushed that ball. does anything ever get out of this park in right center? that wall is cruel.

The Orioles have money to spend, so even if Hardy tests the market there's no reason to think they can't make a very competitive offer and resign him. Also there are needs for a SS throughout the league amongst contending teams (brewers, reds, cardinals, giants all come to mind pretty quickly), so I think it will take more than 2 B type prospects. On top of that there's a pretty decent chance Hardy will be a type A free agent. So if the Orioles did try and fail to resign him they'll probably end up with a better haul than two middling prospects. I'm not saying someone is going to have to sell the farm for Hardy, or that he's in the same stratosphere as what it would take to get Reyes.....but the Orioles aren't going to just give him up for some middling low upside prospects. He's going to be tough to acquire. Also, as you mentioned Hardy's injury prone. If the Orioles made him a solid offer midseason, wouldn't it be a tough for a guy with an injury history to pass that up?
-
i don't think it should be a problem. The pen has had some decent rest the past two days. Need Estrada to get through 7 and then have Saito (or Loe or Ax I guess) take the 8th.
-
22! at least we've got that.
-
Prince does lead the NL in WPA. Measures the value of a player similar to WAR, except it takes into account the importance of each situation (but doesn't include fielding). Essentially it's a useful descriptive stat (especially in the case of an MVP vote I imagine) but won't be as effective as a predictive stat for the future. Top 5 in the NL are Prince, Votto, Kemp, Braun, and Howard. Bautista leads the league.
-
why wouldn't they get to extend hardy? why wouldn't they get plenty in return for a good defensive SS that can also hit?

Casey McGehee's struggles: how much leash does he get?
ninja33 replied to Robideaux's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
For how long? That'd be pretty brutal, long term. They really should get .750+ OPS out of 3rd base if they are legit playoff contenders, especially with such an awful hitter at SS as well as CF vs LHPThird base has been the worst offensive position in the league this season, for what it's worth. Not really that relevant because obviously the team needs more out of 3B...but i thought it was pretty interesting. -
Casey McGehee's struggles: how much leash does he get?
ninja33 replied to Robideaux's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
give him a few days off and then get him back in against Duke (a lefty) on the 5th. There's still 5 games after that before the all star game....let him play most of those and see if his approach has improved after he's cleared his head. If it hasn't, make a move over the break.
