ok ..... and that isn't concerning? Nope. It will be in another 3-4 weeks if he's not hitting. Slumps happen. Bad luck happens. He's somewhere inbetween that. He'll figure out his zone and start smacking hits again. Too good not to.
You can't throw 88mph with no movement and down the middle. You can't even do that in college let alone the pros. Estrada is a bum. His time needs to be over as a SP.
Does anyone think Estrada even wants to pitch tomorrow at Coors vs the highly offensive Rockies? Could be an ugly one. Over/under 3 home runs against him?
I gotta think he is injured and is still the Brewers best option. He has won a couple games during his slump for the team Yeah I'm not trying to dog on him too much like some fans but he just doesn't look like the Braun I remember. Could just be a slump though. Hope so anyways.
Again, how does a guy so good at defense never get known for it, almost like it was a secret that he could really play the field. Strange stuff. Awesome snag.
I really hope Braun is saving all of his hitting to go on a tear when others (Lucroy) cool down. Just never figured he may struggle to hit .300 PEDs or not.
A win today would be very nice. Give em a chance at a 4 game sweep. Love winning at home but when we are winning on the road, it just makes me feel more confident that this team has a legit shot to be there in the end.
I think I'd take a chance on a guy that hits RHP for a career line of .285/.373/.507 with an OPS of .880 Give him a few weeks in the minors, if he hits, bring him up and let him backup our three OF positions with the occasional start against RHP
