  1. K's have nothing to do with it....in your opinion. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif I think combining Hart's OBP, speed, power and lack of striking out would be a MUCH better option....but what do I know. Again....I didn't mean to turn this into a lineup thread....it's meant to discuss Cameron's overall impact on the offensive production.
  2. Has he ever batted (for an extended period) in the 2 hole before? I honestly don't know. If not, why not? Has Ned magically discovered his "natural" spot in the lineup?
  3. This is my basic point for this whole post: I've read for 23 games now (I'm not exaggerating), that we just have to stay afloat until Cameron comes back and that will solve all of our offensive woes.....as if he's Albert Pujols or something. He's not the savior some make him out to be....that's my main point. We shall see....I hope I'm proved wrong.
  4. 1. I'm sorry bub....but the #2 hitters job is not to drive in runs...it's to get on base for #2-#5. 2. I didn't say I wanted the 2 hitter to "bunt".
  5. First off....strike outs are bad in any batting position, however, putting the ball in play is crucial to moving the runner over from 1st. If he's consistently striking out in front of Prince and Braun...then he isn't putting any pressure on the defense. My question to you is, why has Ned just annointed him the #2 spot. My guess is: 1.) He's fast and can avoid double plays. 2.) He has some stolen base potential. That's really all I can point to.
  6. Who would you rather bat 2nd? I don't want to turn this into a line-up thread but I'd rather have Hart or Kendall most definitely.
  7. I agree he'll be better than what we have now. It just seems that everyone has been holding their collective breath for his 25 game suspension to be up and then we'll break out. I also really don't understand why we would bat this guy in the 2 hole....I truly don't. Anyone who strikes out 160 times has no business in the 2 spot in the order....IMO.
  8. I will concede that Mike Cameron is a great outfielder (and alleged good clubhouse guy) and will improve our defense tremendously and help us win baseball games, however, plugging him into the 2 hole is just crazy. He is basically a Bill Hall clone at the plate, which equals a ton of K's, with some bombs. He is just flat out, not the same player he used to be. He batted .242 last year with 160 K's....people need to start realizing what we are really getting here. A great defensive outfielder and an offensive player that basically mirrors many on our current roster. He's a no contact hitter on the downside of his career, with a lot of the flaws that people aren't acknowledging. Listen....I want him to be successful and improve our club offensively....I just don't see it happening. Those who think he's going to be "THE ANSWER" are going to be sorely disappointed. (edit: less incendiary thread title --1992)
  9. that bumps Rickie up to .197....good job Rickie!!!!
  10. if all you said in your paragraph were true...then you'd be right. He had Gagne warming in the eighth, ready to go in the ninth if we take the lead. (Yeah....let's use him for a 5th consecutive day) He had Riske warming in the ninth ready to pitch the tenth. If you honestly think using Turnbow in a tie game in the 9th was a good move by Yost....then there is obviously no help for you.
  11. Seriously.....Yost has reached the point of "indefensible". That was not the place to put Turnbow in......period. Warming up Gagne for the Ninth if necessary......my god. He is just plain dumb.....he's not a smart man. I'd like to have someone try to combat that statement.
  12. Yost scans 25 man roster which consists of a record 14 pitchers and says "this looks like a great spot to get turbow some work". ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????? (broke long string of ?? -1992)
  13. This offense just plain sucks....and I thought the Giants offense was anemic.
  14. I'm also very excited about our team, depth, pitching (potential), hitting, base-running and everything else, however, my excitement was tempered when I read the Reds message board this morning. They are spooging all over themselves as well. We're only six games in. http://www.redszone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66934
  15. Why yes....yes I did. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  16. Hey Yost....I think Rob Deer might be available to bat lead-off in the upcoming St. Loius series. You have got to be the dumbest man alive.
  17. Elmer Dessens is pure crap. (language -TC)
  18. Rickie start hitting please.....puke.
  19. I was at the game last night. It was awesome and the crowd was great. Witnessing the 1st no hitter in Helena Brewer history was pretty neat and probably the only no hitter I will ever witness. Great job Brewers pitching staff. Greg Vaughn
