Chrissy Mac looking noticeably thicker in the lower half. The race for best hitter on the T-Rats is going to be a vicious one. http://mlblogsrattlerradio.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/first-wisconsin-workout-003.jpg -sorry about the huge photo
Does anyone actually think Carlos Gomez has a mean-spirited or egotistical bone in his body? Lighten up ya old cranks. By most accounts, Gomez is pretty wonderful to be around.
I don't think it is out of the question that we will go through 10+ guys in the 'pen this season. Besides that, he is a decent candidate for a September call-up as well. I don't think it is a sure thing, but I would not be surprised.
This Malcom Dowell release is a weird one but you just cannot sit here and play executioner until more details emerge. He seemed like a decent dude. If this is behavior/work ethic related, it would reinforce the Brewers no-nonsense developmental image.
3/3/2013: Reports had Jed Bradley sitting 91-92 so far this spring and touching 93-94 in his bullpens. That is practically cause for celebration. If he could somehow bump that another half grade or so, we are in serious business.
