Please put my name in the hat too.

I did stick around. Not sure how you can not enjoy his stuff lately. I originally went to see Jeffress pitch tonight, so to see Zach was a nice bonus. I don't pretend to know what's going on with future minor league promotions, but tonight Jeremy looked like he may need several more starts at A+ while Zach looked ready for AA. I know the organization has already said that Jeffress' stay in A+ was not going to be a short one, but I really hope he can put things together. He was hitting 96 and 97 tonight. I have seen eight to ten of his starts in the minors. He was throwing more off-speed stuff tonight than I have seen in the past. What is fun to watch with Jeffress is the sheer power of his arm. He was throwing 96 mph in the first inning and throwing 97 mph in his last inning. He can always bring it ... just needs more control. Brewer's error did rattle him a bit.

I went to the Manatees game tonight. Gindl was in uniform and was signing autographs prior to first pitch. Not sure why he didn't play, but he was in good spirits. I know this does not clarify much ..... but it's something.

Who the hell is Scott Bartell? Scott Bartell is BrewCityUnit's new name.

Following this team isn't fun anymore.

Brantley really manufactures Huntsville's first run tonight. Micheal walked to start the game. Stole second base. And then stole third base and scored on a throwing error by Carolina's catcher.

Wow .... Bill Hall. That;s a bad day at the plate.

Yeah ..... Prince is the "leader of the clubhouse?" He is acting far from that tonight. Wouldn't mind seeing Prince leave Milwaukee.

-I'm worried that this is it. For the past twenty plus years, this is the season I have been waiting for. With the possibility of Sheets, CC and Prince playing elsewhere next season ..... this could be it. For all the prospect talk for years and all the young players coming up; that this season may be the Brewers best chance for years to come because of the potential pitching situation after season's end. -I haven't given up on Rickie Weeks. -And why are the Cubs this good during the same season that the Brewers show this much promise?

All of those guys? Yikes. My animosity level is rising too. Look at the talent Cleveland would be getting with that proposed deal. If the Indians can't pull the trigger, than forget it. They want us to include Hardy/Escobar ...... go bang your drum somewhere else Cleveland.

I'm not sure either. But he may eventually be a better first baseman than third baseman. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Couldn't Gamel always shift to first?

I think Laporta and Escobar is too much. I hope both those pieces aren't involved in this potential offer.

It pains me to think that Jeffress would be packaged with a Huntsville bat to aquire CC. Jeffress is hopefully the Brewers' CC of the future. I just think that would be too much for a rental.

Last year, the Brewers finished two games behind the Cubs/ a playoff spot. Two games can make a difference.
