    If you listened to the pregame with McClung, you would get a sense for how valuable Kendall is. He went into great detail about what Kendall was having him change in order to get players out.

    I'm sorry, I missed the part last year where we lost 2 starters (Capuano and Gallardo), our closer (Coco vs an injured Gagne), our setup man (Riske), and another reliever (Turnbow).

    I exaggerated since everyone else was exaggerating. I didn't actually fix a sandwich and get a coke (but I did take a shower and brushed my teeth).

    JJ seems to have lost a few steps with his injuries (back issues?). Did you watch him score from third the other day? I fixed a sandwich between third and home! Then I realized I had forgotten my coke so I went back to the kitchen and he still hadnt scored yet. This is not the same guy that was winning the sprint contests a couple of years ago. He has a lot of pop on his throw and his glove is solid, but his range is weak and pales in comparison to Escobar.

    anyone know why Gamel had just 3 PAs today?

    The Brewers need to do what is best for the team, not best for Billy Hall. I guarantee you nobody wants a small market shelling out that kind of dough for someone to ride the pine. Front office chose to ignore Branyan's success long past the point of hurting the team in order to straighten Hall out. It didn't happen. Billy continued to pull the ball every single pitch against guys he couldn't hit. He has been unwilling to shorten up his swing and help the team by getting on base. Even when all signs pointed to bringing up Branyan, the team did all it could to give Billy more shots at it, and the team has suffered for it by losing too many games. If the team has any hope to salvage this season, that hole in the lineup needed to get fixed. He's in the middle of a decent contract, he has time to fix his "game". Right now, he should be focusing on helping the team win, while he straightens that out.

    yeah that was not an easy swing. He was pulling hard all the way.

    how about Salome with 35 RBIs already

    anyone have that interview where the maker of the top 100 list said Gamel was one of the 2 biggest misses?

    Gamel with a walk in his 3rd AB to stay alive

    It's all relative. You could have 2 rounds or 50 rounds and you would still need to replace the same number of players at the major league level. The average roster player is going to take up 7 or 8 years of service time in the bigs. This means you need to draft 1/7th or 1/8th of a roster every year, which on a 25-man roster, comes to about 1 in 3 or 4. Now of those 3 or 4, you get a lot of marginal players, who didnt even make it with their initial clubs and get bounced to a few organizations, but still fill up some of those roster spots at the ML level. So really, you should expect to get 2 average starters in a few years in a draft. Someone like Corey Hart is worth about 1.5 league-average starters in trade (Prince could net 3). So you draft him, and get a marginal scrub that makes it in 5 years and another that latches onto another team and wins a roster spot, and you've gotten a respectable draft. Obviously you can debate the weightings of the numbers and years that are equivalent, but the same concept is there.

    I don't think its fair to write of Gamel at 3B just yet. He has shown steady improvement and still has this year to work out the kinks. His fielding has actually been better than Hall's (which isn't saying much).
  13. uwisfan
    I love Dillon the hitter. It's his noodle arm that bugs me about starting him anywhere on the field.
  14. uwisfan
    I wonder if Hall has been noticing the numbers Gamel has put up this year and realized its only a matter of time before he was out of a job...
  15. uwisfan
    welch finishes no-hitter in under 70 pitches on a K
  16. uwisfan
    leadoff walk erased on a double play from escobar...
  17. uwisfan
    he gave up a walk in the 6th and is finally pitching the 7th after a slow bottom 6th
  18. uwisfan
    Prince's HR was a BLAST. Straight away center, and way up there.
  19. uwisfan
    perfect game broken up for Welch
  20. uwisfan
    great night for the org if Huntsville can pull off the second of the double
  21. uwisfan
    2007: 17% errors winter: 12% 2008: 7% then you break down april vs may this year and the trend looks very promising. Bill Hall is at 9% errors right now
  22. uwisfan
    thanks!
  23. uwisfan
    Anyone know where i can find these? Fielding Percentage?
  24. uwisfan
    Brantley will likely suffer from Jason Kendall syndrome, which isnt necessarily bad, but he will ground into some serious double plays. Fortunately, he's fast enough to be leadoff (after the pitcher).
  25. uwisfan
    I wasnt referring to players abilities; mainly the state of the depth in the minor leagues. Braun is untouchable, Weeks has no backup, Cameron has no backup, and the catchers aren't ready either. The rest of them, there is an adequate replacement. Fielder is great and would be worth some great pitching, but there's always a decent downgrade in Laporta.
