Braun loves playing against us. The madness needs to end.

crank him off the plate. bust him on the hands, he has a big looy swing with his bat vertical. throw on his hands and dont let his arms extend and drive it.

barmes was heating up in june with a 247 average.

he only has 4 walks all year. 4. my grandmother could go up against mlb pitching and draw 4 walks. in 250+ AB.
that has to be a record.
when you bat 8th a lot, they sometimes pitch around with men on base to go against the pitcher. but 4 walks. i never realized it was that bad.

good thing the brewers arent in contention this year. couple that with his PED scandal last fall, and braun is out of the mvp talks, but boy he is good.

Which is why shortstop would be my #1 priority at the deadline, Barmes has been so bad it would be hard not to get an upgrade. I can't imagine Marco Scutaro not being available at the deadline.

i agree, i think we have help in the minors for OF and we have enough parts to field a good cadre of OF for the next several years.

to me, SS is our biggest hole, followed closely by C, unless we think McK can turn into a starter in the next couple years.

SS and C are positions we have no help in the next 4 years of minors even.

I still have some hope that Sanchez can develop into an average starter at the ML level. I'm not sure what to think of McKenry, he seems like a guy who will thrive as a part time player, but struggle as a full time player.

had alvarez as the tying run, mcgehee battles to extend the count, then looks at one down the middle.

so close.

Casey had a terrible game. Really awful. Four strikeouts, three of them looking.

That's sad.

seems like all our former players have field days against us, but we dont get to reciprocate. maybe we just have to wait till AJ goes against the yanks in the

WORLD SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Home plate umpire is beyond terrible tonight, can't see how Hurdle or Roenike (sp?) Didn't get tossed yet.
