    Man, Pierre has been HOT lately... that's 1 HR in his last 1 ABs!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Incase anyone was curious, previous HR total on the year was zero)

    I look at this as a really encouraging sign. That means we must really have something going here if we are all jumping off buildings because we dropped to one game under .500 and we are on our longest losing streak of the season... 4 GAMES!!! This is a big improvement over past seasons, we really don't have to abandon ship yet, there is a lot of fight in this team yet. GO GETTEM' BUSH!!!

    At least Yost is making an effort to keep us in this game. He put in Kolb instead of Mabeus.

    Well, if we go by the splits, it looks like George of the Rose is only gonna give up about 3 hits, looks like a win for the crew http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    I don't think trading Weeks is an option. He has the natural talent to be an all-star for many years to come. We've put too much time into weeks and fielder to trade or let either one go. I still think we need dump some of out OF depth in the minors to make room for weeks or hall to play there. Corey Hart hasn't done too much to impress me (not that he's had a lot of time to prove his worth, but so far, i'm not seeing it) I just wonder how people will react when billy goes on a cold streak and comes down to his more likely average of about .280.

    Well, I HOPE he starts in CF. I really like what Koskie is doing at 3rd and he is a veteran in a very young IF. Ideally, i'd like weeks/hall at CF and 2B, JJ as SS, and Koskie manning the hot corner.

    You know what, maybe its just me, but i really don't think that over the long term, Hall's Bat will be that much better than JJ's. Sure, right now there is a big difference, but JJ has the look of someone that is going to get better at the plate, i'm not sure how much better Billy can get. That's why I posed this debate as the "long-term" answer. I think anyone would take billy right now over JJ if we were gonna make a serious run this season. But since I don't see that happening, we have to give JJ a chance to grow into the batter he will eventually become.

    Wasn't aware of that... thanks

    The problem is we WON'T have both for a couple years. This is the last year of his contract and I don't think Billy will want to stay around if he doesn't have a designated spot in our lineup everyday. To me, it makes sense to try to trade Billy at the deadline (but thats a trade topic and don't want to get into that here). Bill Hall plays good defense, but not great. Also, Bill is on a hot streak at the plate and JJ is not looking fantastic. It is very possible that Hall slows down and JJ picks it up later this season. (I'm not saying it will, but it could). Eventually JJ should level out to about a .275 hitter with a .350-ish OBP, which IMO is plenty for a guy with his defensive abilities.
  12. zzzmanwitz
    So are you willing to give up JJ's glove for Billy's bat when we already do that at 2 other infield positions?
  13. zzzmanwitz
    I'm sure some of you listened to the 1250 morning show today. For those of you who didn't, they were polling listeners as to who brewer fans wanted as their SS of the future, JJ or Bill Hall. Lets here some of your thoughts. I think we NEED to have JJ Hardy be there long term. Gold glove caliber short stops are not easy to find. I think we need to keep Bill Hall, but use him at a position that we need more help in (CF would be my spot of choice). JJ has had his struggles at the plate, but he shows good judgement at the plate and will eventually start getting more balls to find holes for base hits. I want to see him develop more gap power, but that will come with time.
