    You dont put guys in the outfield that hit .230 unless they hit 30 + HR's a season... Guys that play the outfield are typically power hitting players unless your hitting over .300... which the Brewer dont have except for Braun. If Weeks moved to center it would be a wasted postion...

    Can I ask you what you do for a living that your at every Brewer game in those seats? Plus the 100 plus throwback jerseys you wear at those games?

    I can't let this go, Cameron could easily end up being like 5 runs above replacement when factoring in defense in a shortened season. He's clearly worth more than $10 million. Right now I see no way the Brewers don't pick up the option even if just to trade him (though he has some no trade protection). I think alot depends if the Brewers see Brantley as a starting CFer in the future, in which case Cameron for 1 year is a great thing. I agree with you on that. At first Cam was a piece of crap. Wasn't doing anything to start the season. He really has come along and been hitting the ball extremely well. Plus he is taking a nice relaxed approach to the plate. I can see the Brewers picking up the option, unless they want to try and re-sign one the two aces as a first priority.

    AMEN Brother! I hate those "since then" stats....
  5. BrewCrewBaseball
    Actually it's been 74% of his plate appearances, not just half a season, but don't the let the truth spoil a good rant.What numbers are you talking about with Weeks? 74% of the season he has hit .260/.360+OBP? That cant be right? There are 34 games left which is roughly 78% of the season has passed.. maybe a little more? He's batting nowhere close to that? he's at .229/ .335 now? I must be reading that wrong? Are you talking about his career? Casue the thats .244/.351? (pared back long quote --1992)
  6. BrewCrewBaseball
    I agree with you.. but I hardly think Brantly will be that guy.. They gave up enough.. it should be someone else... (pared back long quote --1992)

    I agree with all you you guys on how Weeks just cant seem to take the next step. Everyone gets excited when he starts off hot and then gets hurt. He starts off hot and then he goes into a huge slump. The only option's that make the most sense would be to trade him and let another team deal with the frustration OR move him down in the lineup... like 6 or 7... but who do we have to bat for him in his spot? Everyone would say Hart, but I love Hart right were he is? What would we do then if we kept Weeks and tried him down in the lineup? I don't see that working and it would only mess with the little offense we have at this point. I like the I idea of trading him and Prince to the Giants for Lincecum. We can always bring up Gamel at some point to play 1st...Weeks is the bad link on the chain on this team...

    I see that happening soon, but by next year Im not sure that soon. If the Brewers bring up Escobar and he flat out shows he can make the roster and start then we trade Weeks. Do we just wait until mid-season next year or how many of you guys think Esco will be ready by mid season next year?
  9. BrewCrewBaseball
    I see get what you saying, but is that acceptable? Or have we come to just realize that is what we will get from him? I cant live with all the potential and less than avg numbers. I cant be that only one?
  10. BrewCrewBaseball
    I meant to say in a full season. He will never put those up in a full season. And projected numbers dont mean anything. Until he proves it...
  11. BrewCrewBaseball
    See thats what I was talking about with some friends. I think a trade would jump start his career. I dont get why the guy has such problems. I always thought he could be a 30 HR player and hit around .280... I just dont see that here..
  12. BrewCrewBaseball
    I was wondering what you Brewer Fans think we should consider for next season? Have the Brewers given up on Weeks? The lack of production and the ability to stay healthy are some concerns. Also, Weeks can't seem to put together a full season without having an injury or slump slow his progress. He cant seem to break the .230avg and a.360 OBP in a full season either. Do you see the Brewers shipping away Weeks for a pitcher if we lose the two aces? Or do we give him another chance because he has "so much upside"? On the other hand, Durham looks like he still has a couple really good years in the tank. He has a great avg for a leadoff hitter and has an OBP around .380. I'm not sure what I want to see next season? I cant deal with Weeks not taking the next step year after year. He's what 25, has plenty of trade value still.... What are you guys thinking? I rather see Durham next season...

    Im not buying the Parra innings stuff... He will be fine. He has pitched fine his last couple outing's and only had a bad inning that blows his outing out of proportion. Anyways... Sup will be key to the run. If he comes through and Bush pitches well enough on the road we are in good shape. I dont know what it is with him, but Sup starts hot... then sucks til aug every year...
  14. BrewCrewBaseball
    Lately the starting rotation has been very strong so it helps everyone out in the pen. I think Gagne was lacking the control he had because of the pressure. The best thing that ever happen to him was getting hurt. I gave him a chance to just sit back and work on things. He got sent down and got thing right. He has been great lately. I would rather have him hit the corners at 91 then over the plate at 94... He has turned it around as of late.
  15. BrewCrewBaseball
    I couldnt agree more. We need to sweep the Nats... Im sorry we do! We have out top three going up against their rotation. Going into SD we will have CC and Benny again so it's looking good. And Parra to start the LA series! SD isnt a team we cant just forget about either, They still can suprize a lot of teams despite having a down season. BUt the good thing CC and Ben will close up the series.
  16. BrewCrewBaseball
    So what do you think they will get? Only the Yankee's and Sox could offer them more... maybe the Cubs. Do you think they will be getting over 24 million? Do think it will happen... No one would sign for that amount except those two teams.... What are you thinking baseball mind????
  17. BrewCrewBaseball
    I would like for them to re-sign CC. Most likely it will be Sheets. I'm willing to bet that Mark A wants to keep at least one of them to complement the young duo of Parra and Gallardo next season. He's willing to pay 20-22 million a year for one of these guys over 4 years before they have to trade away Prince. I could see them re-signing one for sure, especially if we trade away Sup somehow this offseason to a club that needs a guy like him If we lose one we get 2 1st round picks, if we lose both we could get 4 or 5 of the top 35 picks in the draft next season so its not that bad. It all depends what Mark wants to do the next couple seasons.... I see them putting a 4 year 80-82 million dollar deal on the table for either one of them... Hopefully CC.... You might think I'm nuts, but if Mark A signed off on 22 million this season for Cam(8 mil), Gagne(10 mil), and Cappy(3.75 mil) I'm willing to bet he would make a deal to a player of their caliber. Cause I can guarantee none of those players will be on the roster next season. There's your 22 mil a year to keep one of those guys, which Mark is willing to spend...

    Bush is bad. He was becoming a problem last year when he had control issues and he never got it back completely. I was glad when he got sent down to AAA, they should have kept him there. I really hope the Brewers dont consider bringing him back next season if they want to have a chance to win every 5th game...
  19. BrewCrewBaseball
    The hitting was there. The pitching was solid on friday . Suppan pitched good besides giving up that HR to papi. The Sox are just a better team than the Brewers. The Brewers can hit that level a couple years down the road. D+ only becasue we hit the ball well....
  20. BrewCrewBaseball
    Braun will be the face of this team now. We all know, or atleast feel that Prince seems to have a jelous side in him. I agree with one of the posters above, he seems out of it this season. Not sure what is running through his head. All I know is a nice winning streak will get this team back into it. Anyways, Braun deserves some props for taking the blame for the team. Someone needs to step up and jump on Yost next.
  21. BrewCrewBaseball
    I will be sitting in CF bleachers 37 on Friday and Saturday with 5 friends. Were staying at the days inn by Logan. The hotels are nuts. $200 min anywhere. I friend told me that Harvard and MIT are having their graduations this weekend so thats why the prices are through the roof!!!

    Ned needs to move Cameron to the lead off spot. He takes just as many if not more pitches than Weeks. So why not put him at the lead-off spot? Cameron still has the speed that your looking for in that position anyway.Then move Hardy to the 2 spot in the lineup. He is a fastball hitter and will see alot more of those at the 2 spot in front of Braun and Prince. Move Rickie down to the 7 spot were he will get something to hit. Plus it will be nice for him to take some walks and get hit by a couple down in the lineup.Plus you will have some speed down in the lineup as well... Put Kendall at 8 and the pitcher at 9. Your not going to move Braun or Prince. I would say put Hart at lead-off, but Hart is the only one hitting above .300 and he is pertecting Prince and doing a goo job so far. Hall is fine a the 6. You could swap him and Weeks if you wanted... I dont get how Yost changed the lineup so much last season and got good results, but he doesnt change the lineup when we can hit worth a crap!!! That guy makes no sense... The lineup needs to be.. Cameron Hardy Braun Fielder Hart Hall Weeks Kendall Pitcher... That is the only way this lineup will wake up!!! Weeks needs to be taken out of the leadoff spot. I watched the game yesterday and Brain Anderson made a good point. He mentioned how "Weeks 5 HR's have all been bombs" no question HR's"! That made me think. You think he might be swinging a little too hard and needs to concentrate on making contact Mr. Anderson??? Move him!
  23. BrewCrewBaseball
    That's where I remember hearing it as well. Plus it was mentioned last year when Hart played CF a couple times last season. I think he would be great. He has the talent to play anywhere out there..
  24. BrewCrewBaseball
    You got it! He will be the next in line when Yost has a meltdown...
  25. BrewCrewBaseball
    Oswald is my choice. I agree with Stevo, we need to get a starter that will be around for a few years if were going to give up alot of prospects. Plus, that pitcher needs to compilment Gallardo when he comes back.
