My guess is that Pujols gets at least 5 innings and Howard’s the first off the bench.

Speaking of Hoffman, cool story.

I was at the final game before the all-star break in the Harley deck, right above the Brewers bullpen. A few of the relievers (I know Stetter and Smith were both there) lined up a bunch of towels end to end and put a bunch of gum on the sides, lining the towels. When Hoffman came up into the dugout, he saw it and walked across the towels like they were a red carpet while the other relievers showered him with sunflower seeds like confetti. We thought that it was really funny (we had been trying to figure out what they were doing with the towels; we guessed it was some kind of game).

Once I got back from the game I logged on to here and saw why they did it; Hoffman was put on the all-star game that day.

Just about every team runs a story every year about how their bullpen is such a close-knit group.

Or at least, it seems like that story is run repeatedly when nothing else is going on. I agree with you though; I think that would be pretty fun.

Braun seemed to play a decent RF in the attempts I saw

it’d be nice if he could play RF if Gamel looks better in left

2010: Gamel in left, McGehee at third, death to bill hall

by warwick5s on Jul 14, 2009 9:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

So far Gamels been looking dandy at third.

McGehee is far from proven

by NoahJ on Jul 14, 2009 9:54 PM CDT up reply actions  

Computer freaked out; their was more to that comment.

I would rather keep Gamel at third while he keeps showing he can handle it, than you can have McGehee, who I think has played OF before, play in RF as there would be no need to move Braun. I think that would be the best solution. Though I prefer McGehee as a new Craig Counsell if our old one leaves after this year.

A baserunner!!

It seems like this NL roster would have had a better chance had it been in an AL stadium.

With the four slugging first basemen, arguably four of the best hitters on the team, it would have given them a place to play all of them rather than having Prince and Adrian pinch hit.

As much as I would rather it not be Ryan Howard....

I hope he hits a three-run shot anyway.
