Power surge...
well…if we need a power hitter…we can always call up this guy from Indy that has hit HR’s 3 games in a row.
Bad news…it’s Brian Bixler.
Are they sitting Freddy
To make sure his option doesn’t vest, making him more valuable to a trade partner?
Yes
……and because they believe he was the 2nd gunman on the grassy knoll….

5:16 p.m.: No Sanchez in the lineup for the fifth consecutive game with the back injury (he also sat out Thursday, but was a healthy scratch). Good news though, he said that he took some swings today and, although he didn’t hit any live pitching, he got in some work off the batting tee and also some soft toss. Manager John Russell said Friday in Philadelphia remains a possibility for Sanchez’s return.
from the PBC Blog
So it looks like he’s on board with the plan too. :)
Freddy
Has a bad back. With his All Star selection, he is all but assured to get enough PAs now to make his extension vest.
Wowsers, he’s now tied for first in the NL with 11 errors

The Pirates
have the two worst ERAs for starting pitchers in the NL with Ohlie and Maholm having above a 6 ERA…any ideas why?
you forgot to say "on the road"
Maholm was the same way last year so it doesnt surprise me.
As for Ohlie, I think it being his first full season and being comfortable in PNC is the answer. Wehner attributes it to the big left field
Jones
way to take it opposite field
"Everybody panic! If you have a small child, use it as a shield! They love tender meat."
As much as I think we should trade Freddy
It frightens me to have to watch Vazquez the rest of the year at 2nd
"Everybody panic! If you have a small child, use it as a shield! They love tender meat."
It could be worse:
Think DY….

Does jack have a gold glove? And if not why? Don’t tell me cause of his bat because I feel like I remember rey ordonez getting gold gloves and usually hitting around .200

For some reason those are linked
"Everybody panic! If you have a small child, use it as a shield! They love tender meat."
It didn't use
to be that way. But now, it’s the person who gets the most exposure and is at least decent defensively (as far as fielding % wise). And a player gets more exposure by being good offensively.
Case in point McClouths gold glove last year I guess

To be fair, everyone else (but Cutch) swung on the first pitch. The guy was basically throwing batting practice.
Several guys swung at the 1st pitch…doesn’t make it right for any of them. But, if you are hitting .300 and get a hit it sure is better tha if you are hitting .260 and make an out.
okay, now…

Kinda unrelated, but not really
The Brewers are not happy with Ryan Braun’s recent call for some changes.
“It was inappropriate for him to say what he said, and I’m not happy about it,” general manager Doug Melvin told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Monday.
“To make the statements he made and also get on his teammates like that, it was irresponsible on his part. It just ticked me off.”

...
“[The Cubs] starting pitching is a lot better than ours,” Braun said. “They threw the ball a lot better than our starters did. They certainly swung the bats better than we did. Clearly they were the better team. It’s nice to get the one win but they clearly outplayed us and outperformed us all series.”
Braun then called out Melvin, looking for a bit of a shakeup.
“We’re at the point right now where it would be important for us to go out there and acquire somebody,” Braun said.
“I know [Melvin] is trying to make our ballclub better. I know he recognizes the importance of making a move and making it soon, but at the same time I think everybody’s recognized there’s a lot of teams that are still in the race.
