Does anybody kinda wish we had him around in Milwaukee instead of Dillon? It's not that I think he would make the team better, but still.

And I'm not basing that off of the stats so far, because if I did that, I'd probably have to be in support of Brad Nelson replacing Dillon, too, and that would just be wrong.

Also, cheese.

Branyan is the Truth and the Way

He's extremely quick and good.

Forget Branyan

Mel Stocker went 4-4 with two doubles and is now hitting .500? Who's Tony Gwynn?

Stocker

Teaching him to catch and he could be the new Kendall with those numbers. I thought the word on Stocker was that he was only useful as a pinch runner?

Pretty much

He's had serious issues with that whole hitting business everywhere he's played in the minors.

Pena

is probably going to be a Brewer by September at the latest. I might be wrong, but I think he's 25 or 26 so it's not like he needs a whole lot more time down there.
