Please, please, please...can we PLEASE trade Fielder already? I cringe every time he has the ball in his hand. His hitting doesn't make up for all of these errors and unmade plays. Plus, he has a temper that runs even hotter than T.Plush (Go ask Manny Parra)! Get that jerk off of my team already!

BA just said the Brewers have been one of the best defensive teams...

Someday you would think after complaining about the error on McGehee for 10 minutes they might acknowledge errors really aren't a good way to measure defense.

Prince, how are you so incredibly awful at throwing the ball? You played baseball your entire life! My god, you're worse than most amateurs at a basic baseball skill. Just bad.

lol at criticizing Fielder for that play. He was trying to preserve a lead late in the game. He obviously knew he would have to make a really quick, perfect throw to get the guy at home, but I don't fault his decision to not go for the sure out at 1st. If there was a runner on 2nd advancing to 3rd, it would be a different story, but as it was, I don't mind it at all.

 

It wasn't some run-of-the-mill throw to home. He had to get it out of his glove and to home plate really fast. Most players would have reduced accuracy there.

What are they saving Stetter and Braddock for? To come in to face Howard once the lead is gone?

They're probably saving Braddock for the 8th. If you bring in Stetter to face Gload, the Phillies put in a righty like Mayberry, and then you have Stetter against a RHB, which is never fun. A lefty also puts Victorino on the right side where he's a LOT better. And Polanco is a RHB. The bullpen did fine there, they caught bad breaks with the error and gload's ground ball finding $#%%%!. And they got the break back with that DP.
