2012-06-09 Padres (Cashner) at Brewers (Fiers), 3:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-2]

[markedman5]

Cards, Mets, Cubs, Miami and the Dodgers have all managed to do it this year against this Padre team so it can't be all that difficult.....

 

Sweeping even the worst teams is very difficult, especially with a AAA starter on the mound and multiple AAA players in the lineup.

I never said it was impossible.

4-4 now on this homestand against Pirates, Cubs and Padres.......

 

Coming off of the sweep of the Dodgers we really needed to take care of business at home to close the gap on the Reds. Against this quality of opposition....6-3 or even 7-2 would have been a nice start to turning this season around.

very sad home stand and aganist a Sd team that won 5 road games all season.

No way is Weeks going to get benched for a month at ths point. Not even close.

 

And Weeks is only batting 5th because there are almost no other options. What would you even propose?

 

Exactly what I posted, TAYLOR GREEN. I was joking about the month comment. I know Weeks can't be given a month off, but I think a DL stint with a "bad hammy" would be good for Weeks and the Brewers. Anyone in that lineup should be batting 5th over Weeks at this point.
