I don't blame the Bucks for taking him either. He's pretty dumb if he is actually willing to sit out for a year without a guarantee of being able to re-enter the draft. I also think he'd get plenty of playing time, which is something they seem to be concerned about.
Bedard's good, but he's not Braun/Yo good. I don't really see a match. I'd probably give up Villy/Inman/Gwynn for Bedard, but I don't see why Baltimore would feel the need to move him.
I don't really see a need for Lofton either. Otsuka, on the other hand would be a nice pickup. He hasn't pitched in a couple weeks, but he's due back any day. They'd have to wait and see if he's healthy.
Judging from this story in the JS, I'm guessing Villanueva will fill in if Sheets can't make his next start. If they DL Sheets it will be Villy to the rotation and Balfour to the pen. Ned says he wants to keep Yo in the pen until August.
The blog looks good Jay! I have to say I enjoy when people link to their blogs or sites. I like checking them out. As far as shameless plugs go, nikegolf6 (Dan) is writing at my blog as well. I think we have some decent content.
I know. I said supposedly because a lot of his backers claim he doesn't strike out a lot. I knew there was a good chance of that groundout though. In other news, please let the injury to Sheets be as minimal as possible.
All I'm doing right now is trying to come up with some injury that won't have Sheets out for more than a start. I'm not coming up with anything... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif
