  1. He's put up some good numbers vs righthanders over his career. Works the count well. Good solid OBP. Strong arm from the Outfield, fields well (usually). Team player. There's alot to like about Gross. I've never been one to say he should start every day, but he is a good player, could be a solid platoon player similar to Jenkins someday
  2. This Nationals team reminds me of that Brewers team that went 56-106 a few years back. Wow, if it doesn't rain it pours
  3. Way to go Jenkins!!!! I'm glad we didn't trade "The Glue"!
  4. ooops thas s'posed to be in Blue... great hit by Tony
  5. Tony Gwynn is gonna be a Hall Of Famer. It's in the DNA
  6. Miller 7th Counsell 8th Pitcher 9th Shades of the top-heavy lineups of '05 and '06. Looking forward to Ryan Braun joining the club!
  7. Counsell hitting south of .200 is indeed scary.
  8. I'd prefer to keep Mench all season unless Hart just completely starts raking at a .850 OPS rate or we get an offer we cannot refuse for Mench
  9. "Get up... get out of here.... gonnnnnnnne!"
  10. Putz is pretty much a bigtime talent, I'd be thrilled to get him, but Jackson, Dessens and Cappelan would be a steal. I'd imagine we'd have to give up a bit more talent than that, maybe not though...
  11. I know Milledge has raked in the Minors, was a 1st round pick and is only 22, but in 169 at bats in MLB, he has a .678 OPS. He is definitely no Prince Fielder in terms of being MLB ready at an early age. Will he eventually develop? Probably. Corey Hart is, granted, a few years older but had a .796 OPS last season at the age of 24 in 237 at bats. Tony Gwynn is more MLB ready than Milledge is, apparently, right now. I thought our days of trading MLB starters for prospects was over. Milledge is a big time prospect, but still just a prospect. And then there is the alleged attitude thing.
  12. Exactly. Me too. We are one starting pitcher injury away from having to press Gallardo into action earlier than we want or having to use Villanueva as a starter thus having to rely on someone like Dessens or Spurling or Zach Jackson heavily in long relief. If anything, I think we should be buyers for relief pitching/long reliever. Our whole season is relatively precarious based on counting on our Starters stay healthy. I remind you of just how valuable an All-Star Outfielder was last season when we had injuries to our starting pitchers and we had to count heavily on AAAA arms. While Milledge has potential, I think that Carlos Lee is more valuable than Milledge right now, and right now we are trying to gain a playoff spot. Thus, again, I value starting pitching right now more than another potential Outfielder who might rake in '08 and might not
  13. I actually think Vargas is a better pitcher than Bush. Not sure what their contract ramifications are though. As far as Outfield next season: Hall is a given obviously, and we're counting on Hart to show he can be an every day player. I actually think there is a chance that either Jenkins or Mench will be back, and I'm one of the few here who think that Gwynn can be a starter eventually. If there is one thing we've seen from Doug Melvin, it is that he has a capability for stocking the team with Outfielders. Villanueva and Gallardo are a huge part of the future of the Brewers, no way do I trade either one of them... I could see trading Jackson and Sarfate and Gross, if the trade makes sense.
  14. I think the Brewers need their starting pitcher depth (especially with Sheets under contract for only one more year) more than they need an extremely talented but unproven Outfielder with (alleged) attitude problems. You can never, ever, have too much pitching. Now I suppose if the Mets were foolish enough to take Zach Jackson for Lastings Milledge, we'd be all over it. But no way do I trade Bush or Vargas or Villanueava for that kid
  15. thank you, woogie, for these continued awesome In-Game thread headers. Great work!
  16. Hardy: MVP Someday, yes I'm tellin' you He will be greatness
  17. Hall rakes this guy bad So Rickie, get on base please Lets break out early
  18. the pitch count stays low keepin' Elmer in the pen it makes my heart glad
  19. C'mon Claudio! We need a big game right here! Beat the Pirates, please...
  20. shelmark, I don't know the inherited runners Stats. Spurling's ERA was @ 4.95 going into the game, but after 2 scoreless innings tonight, it went down into the 3's ... shows what "small sample size is all about" (and helps me not be so concerned about Rickie Weeks' sub .240 BA!)
  21. Hey, Spurling has a 3.18 ERA right now! I'm hereby against the Double Steal unless Weeks or Hart is on 3rd.
  22. meanwhile look at Spurling with a Three One Eight Yes, Small Sample Size
  23. Try again I will As I root for Brewers yes I will do Haiku
  24. Had to Google To find out how to Haiku. Now I know
  25. That's pretty much the way I saw it.
