A pox on the next person who buys into this Righty Curse

This line is too good to not hit better than they are against right hand pitchers.

What is the ratio of right handed pitchers to left handed pitchers in the MLB My guess is over 3:1 they better figure this out now or this season is shot before it starts.

but then again Ned Yost is still the Brewers manager so the season is most likely shot already

Sigh

Its all about the Bullpen this season that is the key.

by WSB Chris on Apr 16, 2008 5:51 PM CDT reply actions  

I agree

If I’m recalling correctly, the only left-handed bats we lost from last season are Johnny Estrada and Geoff Jenkins. Considering their current replacements, Kendall and Kapler, have been two of the better hitters on the team to start the season, the whole righty-on-righty excuse can’t really stand.

Ned Yost's Brewers: Braun Over Brains

I don't think there's a curse

and you’re absolutely correct in saying that they should hit a whole lot better. I do think they struggle against right handers who are the softer throwers and use more movement. I would call them “junky” but that isn’t the best descriptor. I just can’t think of a better one right now.

by ol Pete on Apr 16, 2008 7:13 PM CDT up reply actions  

I never thought I'd say this

but boy, I wish Gabe Kapler were playing.

with all the discussion of Kendall

and all the talk over there about what a genius their pitching coach Duncan (right?) is, I wonder if Molina is calling a great game or Duncan is great at his job – and conversely whether Maddux is good, great or otherwise.

by ol Pete on Apr 16, 2008 8:13 PM CDT up reply actions  

Didn't

Duncan get a lot of credit early last year for the Braden Looper transition, and then that quickly fell apart?

Besides, that great defense they’ve lived off of years shouldn’t be quite as good absent Edmonds and Rolen, right?

I enjoy hearing other fans perspectives

But I would never go to another teams blog and be a jerk I try to be as respectful as possible.

Okay, fair enough

You know there are folks who just go to other boards, etc.

Life is too short for that.

Want to hear me compliment the Brews?

If the Cards are out of the race for the Division I am rooting Brewers all the way!

No

If I was on another blog, I’d be smashing the other team. I don’t mind the outsiders.
