03/01/07 - Oakland (Halsey) @ Brewers (Vargas) : 2:05 PM CT

[JET15]

What if he hits for the cycle?

 

Braun, Braun, keep turning up the heat

[bucksman4]

Counsell and Graffy are already shaking in their cleats!!

 

Get this kid in the everyday lineup and you'll like what you see.

[clancyphile]

Braun did it again. OK, is there still any reason to think about Graffsell at third?

 

I can live with the errors - I want that bat in the lineup. PRONTO!!

[brewcrew44]

Wow, I had to go get something done, and when I left we were down 7-1. How things can change with a little bit of Braun.

[patrickgpe]

not to ruin this love fest but its important to remember that just as this was just 2 innings for vargas this was 3 at bats for Braun. I want him to make the club, but its just one day, and he did have an error in the previous half inning.

[JohnBriggs12]

That he had an error doesn't mean all that much either considering it's one error in one game.

 

Nevertheless, he's a triple away from the cycle.

 

Oh yeah, that bomb he hit was off of Oakland's number 7 prospect who was 13-1 at AAA last year.

[bucksman4]

Yeah and people forgave Weeks' error-fest and said "stick with him because of his bat."

 

Braun's bat is even better and I contend that if Weeks is in the lineup, Braun should be too.

 

And I ask: WHAT CAN BRAUN DO FOR YOU???

[thefutureishere2006]

i agree patrick. however i do think graff and counse look much much better on the bench for depth.

[littledoc83]

By the deeeeeeep statement in the play by play I'm assuming it was crushed. Anyone who was there got an estimate of distance?

[patrickgpe]

I know, and I want Braun to make the team.Graff and Counsell would be great utility infielders. I was just pointing out that just as Vargas is not doomed not to make the team cause of his outing, Braun isn't going to win ROY cause of 1 spring game.

[brewcrew44]

3 straight walks from Hendrickson.... not good at all. The selfish side of me wants to put Sheets in there and shut them out, with Braun having the winning hit.... a triple.

 

 

Whew...... 5-4-3. Nice way to get out of a jam.

[Team Canada]

This just in: Hendrickson still sucks.

[PrinceFielder28]

Why is Hendrickson still on this team 3 staight walks? Luckily his infield got him out of the inning

[sauveb]

Ricky Ledee is making me feel a lot better about our center field situation.

[thefutureishere2006]

YEAH RIVERA..catcher depth anyone?

[Ennder]

Bases loaded no outs and K followed by popup.. the more things change the more they stay the same.

[ryne100]

Chad Moeller hit for the cycle once.

 

Why wasn't he the everyday catcher long term?

[UeckerAddict]

It's incredible to me how the Brewers have gone from Moeller starting 25-30% of the games, to Estrada-Miller-Rivera-Closser (though it's been mentioned that the Crew will likely not have both Rivera and Closser in the system once the year starts).

[clancyphile]

SALAMI!!!!!

[mikevan1818]

ummm.....Wow!

[clancyphile]

Ryan Braun, FOUR FOR FOUR!!!!!

[jloos19]

OH MY GOD BRAUN! Umm... I'm ready for the season now.

[EinhornIsFinkle]

Holy Braun http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[TheBwaz]

Braun? What not to like. Even if he does make 162 errors.

 

Bye bye baseball.

[Team Canada]

Salami!!!

 

Deeper than the last one????

 

 

 

Wow.

 

I love you Ryan.
