Brewers by batting order position this season: Split PA AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI SB CS BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS Batting 1st 181 161 27 48 9 2 7 13 3 2 16 40 .298 .370 .509 .879 Batting 2nd 176 156 19 35 4 3 2 13 6 2 11 36 .224 .272 .327 .599 Batting 3rd 169 147 29 44 3 1 11 29 7 0 20 27 .299 .385 .558 .942 Batting 4th 166 146 25 42 10 1 9 31 0 0 16 21 .288 .373 .555 .928 Batting 5th 165 149 12 39 11 0 1 17 0 1 15 27 .262 .327 .356 .683 Batting 6th 160 150 11 37 6 0 1 9 1 1 7 24 .247 .281 .307 .588 Batting 7th 156 140 12 29 8 1 4 14 4 1 11 26 .207 .261 .364 .626 Batting 8th 151 132 14 41 9 1 2 19 0 0 15 27 .311 .380 .439 .819 Batting 9th 146 135 11 24 3 0 2 11 1 0 3 49 .178 .194 .244 .439 So our terrible 2 slot, getting on base at a .272 clip over 176 PA vs our #8 hitters getting on at .380, has cost us 19 base runners on in front of Braun/Fielder.

Well a lineup is not made by just putting guys in order of their average. You spread people out for speed and power reasons. You are not just going to stick the worst couple guys and the pitcher at the bottom of the lineup. Umm please elaborate, Im not sure you have any idea what you are talking about. There have been studies on this in the book, here is the summary: Your three best hitters should bat somewhere in the 1, 2 and 4 slots. Your fourth and fifth best hitters should occupy the 3 and 5 slots. 1 and 2 guys should walk more often. Then order in decreasing skill from 6-9. -
I would start a McGehee cycle watch but I dont think its possible for him to hit a triple
-
Braun cycle watch: 1B 2B 3B HR
-
Lets also trade for Adam Dunn and play him at SS
-
Random trivia question, who is the only player to face the minimum 27 hitters 3 times?
-
Verlander just threw his first career no-hitter, I think
-
Verlander back on the mound in the 9th: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?topic_id=6350584

My god about time something good happened for us. Now if Axford walks the first hitter....
-
If I remember it right, the Brewers won the next two in that series and then went on a nice run, like 8 of 10, or so. Hopefully a similar bounce when this streak ends.I believe Bill Hall hit a 2-run HR to take the lead in the 8th inning on like a 100 mph fastball from Joel Zumaya
-
Verlander with his no-no through 8, you can watch live for free here: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?topic_id=6350584

Verlander with a walk, throwing 100 MPH in the 8th inning.

This is the most G-rated version I could find, obviously not as good as the Samuel L Jackson and Ving Rhames conversation.
-
Wow that is a black hole that would make Stephen Hawking proud
-
Braun just made fun of Gomez for that huge swing.
-
Works for CBS3 in Philadelphia. Wow nice work I wasnt actually expecting an answer
-
What happened to Kate "my brother" Bilo?
-
Hinske should be more ashamed of that strikeout than Craig Counsell against Jeff Cirillo
-
We need Bob Gibson to teach Prince how to not fraternize with the other team during the middle of a 4 run inning

Gallardo career with bases empty: 1290 PA, .252/.318/.394 against, 308 K (1 per 4.19 PA), 111 BB (1 per 11.62 PA), 29 HR (1 per 44.5 PA) with runners on: 1055 PA, .237/.328/.377 against, 247 K (1 per 4.27 PA), 120 BB (1 per 8.8 PA), 20 HR (1 per 52.75 PA) Looks like the main difference is a much higher walk rate from the stretch, which does hurt especially when there is already other runners on. The other thing that bothered me is when he gave up that double to lose the lead he just walked over towards the line and did not hustle to get in place to back up a throw. It looked like he was just really frustrated, and if his confidence is his problem its not getting any better.
