The Brewers have lost 4 straight series in Houston and have been very not good on the road this year....I think it's time to end both of those things. Let's go Yo, shut out that AAA lineup known as the Houston Astros.

The lineup just isn't the same without Morgan in there, I hate facing lefties. With as hot as Morgan has been all year, would it be THAT bad to give him a start against a lefty and see how he does?

 

Especially in a place like Houston with a giant CF...just saying.

As much as I like Nyjer , I think this platoon works well getting him some off games and Hairston more PT. Not everyone is Prince and can play every game. I'm fine with Nyjer getting days off keeping him fresh. I suspect we see him moved to center and JH moved to second short or third at some point in this game if RRR can.

Hart Hairston Braun Fielder McGehee Betancourt Lopez Lucroy Gallardo

 

Just my guess

Good guess. That's the lineup.

This is Jack Burton in the Pork Chop Express, and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin' out there.

Looking way ahead, if we have to face Philly in the playoffs that likely means back-to-back Lee and Hamels meaning 2 straight non-Plush games? This also means a possible game 4 Halladay, game 5 without Plush again. Maybe it wouldnt be such a bad idea to let him face a lefty every now and then so he could be ready to face a lefty if need be. If Gomez isnt ready or struggling post injury do we want to start JHJ 2 straight games in the playoffs?

Has anyone ever explained why it's pronounced 'JAY' Happ instead of enunciating both initials as ' JAY AY' Happ? I'm assuming his first name isn't really Jay. Is it?

 

Starting to look like maybe he should be B.B. Happ.

Keep it going, Casey. (Although you are killing me in fantasy this week. The guy I'm playing has actually started Casey for the entire season)
