    woohoo, brad nelson 3-run pinch hit HR!

    Thanks for the post Brian, an entertaining read for sure. But talk about too much time on their hands....is he really an M.D.?
  3. DevilDog1775
    My gameday prediction: Both starters perform well. Both watered down bullpens give up runs late. But Branyan and Fielder both go yard in the Texas game to pull it out there. Brewers split the day 1-1. Branyan goes 2-3 with a HR, Helms 0-3 with an error. Tomorrow, Yost announces Helms has finally pulled away from Branyan at 3B. Seriously, though, look for Branyan to stay hot. Pressure's on at 3B more than ever.

    fair enough, I understand what you are saying, but if the spot is just being used as a "stop-gap" until JDLR or Capellan or whoever is ready, then why fill it with a 34 year old who was not in the majors last year and hasn't had any recent success (to include ST) and not with a 24 year old who just may find his way? I don't see any reason to believe a guy like Helling will win any more games the Lil' Ben right now (granted based on recent performances it doesn't look like either will win much right now). I just firmly believe that Ben has more potential to improve at this stage than Helling. And our #5 starter likely won't be the difference in our contending or not, so why not see if he has a future with the club? Of course if JDLR or Capellan or (gulp) Wes O prove that they are more ready right now than either of them, then different story. GG is the wild card I guess.

    yeah, but Helling is not one of them (at least not at this stage in his career)! It's one thing if he said, "He's got to step it up or that's where a guy like Capellan comes in." but he didn't. He said Helling! This is the same Helling who is 34 years old and had an ERA of 4.94 in AA last year! Then he went to AAA and had an ERA of 9.00 in 31 IP. His ERA for the year was 6.26, all in the minors. Oh yeah but that's just ERA. His WHIP in the minors last year? 1.68 His K:BB? 1.87 nothing great Oh and he has a 7.5 ERA in ST so far (6 IP), with 2 BB, 1 K, 6 hits....need I go on? I don't care what he did in 1998 (7 years ago!) You can't honestly say that Rick Helling right now has a higher ceiling than a 24 year old AAA Pitcher of the Year.
