03/14/07 - Brewers (Cappy) @ White Sox (Garland): 3:05 PM CT

Cut him.

[And That]

Cut him.

 

Trade him with Gallardo for Joe Crede.

[And That]

Garland is consistently hitting 108 MPH, even when he's holding the ball in his hand. Why is Mike Maddux teaching our guys how to do this?

Anybody who just wants to listen to the game, 670 the score out of chicago is broadcasting it on the radio.

[Team Canada]

Sarfate continuing his complete stranglehold on a bullpen spot

[And That]

At least our AAA bullpen is gonna be sweet.

[TheEndless7]

I vote for moving Bill Hall to the bullpen to help lock it down.

[And That]

Here's Greg Aquino, throwing in his hat.

[pitchleague]

Jiminy Beeswax, Ryan Braun is the man. If he keeps this up, we're going to have a "Can Ryan Braun pitch?" thread in the next 6 months.

[brewmann04]

Is it time to worry about Cappy.

He finished last year on the downside and has not looked very sharp this spring.

[homer]

Anybody know what Braun is slugging? Seems like every hit he's gotten has been for extra bases.

[BrewCrewForever]

Ryan Braun is the greatest player in the history of MLB.

Braun is slugging a healthy 1.000 with a 1.435 ops. Not too shabby.

Today's Gameday, with three weak Craig Counsell AB's, then pinch-hit for by Ryan Braun, who promptly triples, then doubles -- I'd say when the prosecutor rests his case, he'll remind the jury about that piece of evidence.

 

Something about that being a microcosm...

[rluzinski]

Can we just wait the 21 days and 1 second to bring up Braun..... that's all I ask! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Honestly I would LOVE to see Braun up as our starter at 3B when the season starts. But I understand why if he is not. He still needs defensive work and I think if the rest of our lineup does what I think it can we can survive with the platoon of Graffy/Counsell still middle of season if they bring Braun up then.

[clancyphile]

Especially with Braun in an offensive groove when he has played.

 

Clearly, Braun is the best option at third. I just don't see how you can keep Counsell as anything other than a backup SS/2B and pinch-runner.

He didn't have to make any defensive plays yesterday to "show off" his arm... I think there's valid viewpoint talent-wise as well as financially to keep him in AAA to get some more reps before having him kiss the minors goodbye.

[endaround]

Based upon Braun's spring its obvious thats he an injury waiting to happen and should be traded immediately.

 

Either that or spring training tell us little and the fact Braun has just been cleared to start throwing tells us that he probably could at least practice some defense before he ends up in Milwaukee.

[giffted1]

i can put up with bad defense if he keeps hitting
