the umpire's horribly large stike zone is going to keep lawrence in this game at least 3 innings longer than he would have been - even major league hitters aren't going to pound a pitcher throwing garbage when he's getting 4"+ off both corners, and a mid-shin high pitch is a strike

Feilder shouldn't have argued with the ump after the first because i'm sure that did nothing but make the zone larger.

To be fair, he is being consistent, which is really all you can ask.

not saying he was inconsistent - capuano's gotten gift calls too...what i'm saying is that a pitcher with below average stuff can be effective when the strike zone is enormous - as a brewer fan i'd rather have a tight strike zone called for both sides when the opposing pitcher is throwing beach balls to the plate

David Wright a.k.a the guy who is going to keep Brauny from starting at 3B in future all-star games.

 

 

Perhaps, but Braun is having a far better year, especially considering he's down about 170 AB's..

Braun makes Wright look like Sean Berry

 

 

Okay not quite , but hes better. This year at least.
