Game Thread #101: Billy's Back
Aside from the periodically missing Ben Sheets, the stretch-run Brewers are starting to take shape. Hall is back, Gwynn goes down, Linebrink is on his way, and one of the Spurling/Balfour (Balling?) twins is probably headed out. We'll take a closer look at the Linebrink deal in the next couple of days, but for this season it definitely makes the team better.
Most conveniently, we get Hall back in time for the last couple of games with the Reds, which probably makes Cinci fans squirm. We can only hope that his Reds-killing prowess is ready to be deployed immediately. The next couple of games would be mighty nice to win, especially if the Cubs would do us a favor and lose one here or there.
Go Brewers!

Howdy
Psyched to see Bill Hall in the lineup. Maybe he can piss on second base and rape one of our mascots tonight.

hardy has some hip and back problems
That's my guess anyway, we will probably hear after the fact that he had a strain or something.

One of our regular posters
"Inman's a control specialist with mediocre stuff
His minor league numbers are better than he actually is, ala Kevin Slowey."
Thoughts?

True
This yr at AA he's running into troubles. The hitters are smarter. His "mediocre stuff" is proving to be, well, mediocre. and the numbers prove it.
Yusmeiro Petit is another guy he can be compared to.
I want to be clear here, I am not trashing Inman. But the hype he has associated with his name is A level only. He seems to be finding his level in AA ball. Limited upside.

it's a great evaluation method

My point
Simply that Lohse has looked dominant in a few starts this year, and he's been exceptional in 3 starts in particular at GABP this season. He has top of the rotation stuff; he's just a headcase.

Ned's managing for his job folks. No playoffs and I really think he gets canned. This Brewers team should win the division, assuming no further injuries. We're the best team.
Still sick over that loss on Monday night.
