Zaun to the DL; Lucroy called up -- Latest: Season-ending surgery

[battlekow]

From Haudricourt's Twitter. Big night for prospects, eh?

[craigharmann]

Holy crap!! Can this night get better? A Brewer win, Braddock AND Lucroy to the bigs!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!

[twobrewers]

I wonder how different things might have been for Salome...

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Great for Lucroy, but a bummer for Zaun. Considering his start, he has been a bright spot for the team. I hope he's back soon.

[GormanHarvey]

Cool beans. Hope Zaunie is ok though. Didn't look real good

[battlekow]

So, that's two 40-man roster spots the Brewers need to open tonight.

[wibadgers23]

I see that Lucroy is still in the game for Nashville. I'm guessing we'll see Kottaras start tomorrow night and hopefully Lucroy on Saturday.

[JoeHova]

Good luck to Lucroy. If he can play well, Zaun might be tradeable at the deadline.

technically, don't they have until 7:00 pm tomorrow?

[paul253]

Unless Lucroy is the every day catcher, I am not a fan of this.

[BrewCrewForever]

This night keeps getting better and better.

 

Although I do feel bad for Zaun, he was hitting pretty good after that awful start.

[battlekow]

Well, yes, but you know what I mean.

[sheethead]

Hopefully Lucroy gets his bat back. I'd imagine he gets the start on Sunday. Kottaras tomorrow and Saturday.

[wibadgers23]

Yeah, I'm having bad flashbacks of Gamel already.

 

 

[GormanHarvey]

I would think with it just being Kottaras and him, lucroy will at least get semi regular playing time

[BrewCrewForever]

This is a concern. But my hope is that Lucroy and Kottaras split time and Zaun is back right after the 15 days and then Lucroy goes back down to AAA to play everyday.

[DHonks]

Stern, Cruz, Heether, Suppan, or Periard (although I'd hate to lose him) could be DFA'd, Riske, Butler, and Gamel could go on the 60-day DL. There are ways to open up the 40-man spot

Welcome to the Bigs Jonathon, have a LaCroix for Lucroy

On another note don't, this stuff is terrible!

[bork]

My guess is Stern and Vargas get DFA'd.

[TooLiveBrew]

Well this should be interesting. I sure hope the Gamel-eque concerns don't prove relevant. Exciting day for the Brewers organization today

[Diskono]

Gary Bennett is available.

[logan82]

I will not be bothered by Lucroy only starting once in a while as long as he is only up for a couple weeks.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Why are Lucroy's numbers so terrible in AAA?

[YoungGeezy]

I'm not too worried about it, he will get a decent amount of time and it should be a short stay. It is not like George Kotteras is absolutely tearing it up right now. last year with Gamel, They had Billy Hall there and McGehee was really getting into a groove.

[trwi7]

It is not like George Kotteras is absolutely tearing it up right now.

Kottaras and his 1.035 OPS would beg to differ.
