Brewers 2008 Preseason Update....

Well, maybe he will only have 125 K's this year, since he is only going to get ot play a minimum of 137 games, and he will be lucky to get 125 with the way Yost changes his lineups around on a regular basis.

[brewersfan19]

The Brewers assigned outfielder, Laynce Nix to minor league camp.


This comes as no shock to me either.

[Turn 2]

Well, it is no shock to me since the Brewers are stacked with Outfielder that are mostly young and really talented.

[Hardy Blonde]

you are right, just hurts cause Cappy is a lefty. The Crew just cant afford to loose pitching especially the lefties.

Yeah that's right

Still need a lefty in their and I just dont think Parra is quite there yet.

Parra will get there this year I think. He's just gotta relax like the rest of 'em.

After Cameron serves his 25 games suspension for testing positive for roids, Yost plans on batting him 2nd in the lineup. Mixed feelings about this decision from Yost. I will have to think about it again and get back to you people.

You do that LoL

Well, it is no shock to me since the Brewers are stacked with Outfielder that are mostly young and really talented.

Tony Gwynn Jr will be outfielder of the year IMO if he gets to play a lot

[brewersfan19]

blondie, I like your thinking about Gywnn, Jr.

I sure hope you are right. He deserves his shot. I still believe he is the leadoff hitter to be. He has a great mentor in his DAD for advice in batting leadoff.

[Hardy Blonde]

Him and Weeks would be killer as 1-2

[brewersfan19]

Yeah, you could flip-flop both of them in the 1 and 2 spots in the order.

[brewersfan19]

The Brewers released Claudio Vargas today.

[Hardy Blonde]

That's right.

I think this was a good idea.

[brewersfan19]

It was for the best for the Brewers and my own personal sanity.

[brewersfan19]

The Brewers outrighted catcher, Eric Munson to (AAA)-Nashville today.

Sounds like Michael Rivera is going to win the backup catcher role.

[Hardy Blonde]

It was for the best for the Brewers and my own personal sanity.

Nice

Catcher thing sounds good to

[brewersfan19]

I think the are basically the same defensively (Rivera and Munson that is), but Rivera goves them a little more offense than Munson. It was basically a coin flip.

[Hardy Blonde]

The whole team could be a coin flip these days...

[brewersfan19]

Yeah, I really feel tha Yost is on the hot seat. He needs to have a great managerial year. He needs to focused, prepared, and have a better feeling about his pitchers. He overused the bullpen and couldn't sense when Bush would hit his wall.
