[The stache]

Another game with an awful lot of zeros from the Brewer offense. Sigh. Who's our hitting coach? He's not doing much to help our hitters out of this awful slump.

 

And Hand giving up 7 hits and 3 walks in three innings. A nice 3.333 WHIP today. Joy.

 

Giants 4 runs on 7 hits.

Brewers 1 hit.

I'm not pinning anything on Narron -- half the lineup most days is AAAA (or worse) caliber hitters at this point. It's not a slump as much as it is a lack of talent overall.

I really hate that Davis has been basically relegated to weak side platoon. He has a 1.014 OPS in his 36 at bats. See what he can do full time.
