Top prospects had a good day

except for that Hardy kid.

2009 Brewers: Pass the liquor.

The box score doesn't tell the whole story

Of course, that JJ Hardy kid was turning outs into outs for the whole game.

Except for when he made an error at short.

Hmmmmm

No one likes a smartass. JJ turns outs into outs. If there’s an error in there, I think the official scorer needs to be put under immediate review, and all his decisions for the year get an asterisk.

Heether!

"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"

HOLY CRAP!

Nice to see both have started to heat up over the last month or so. Hopefully this is a sign he is finally back into the swing of things after having the knee injury. I get the feeling if he continues to hit well the rest of the Minor league season and through the AFL the Crew would be wise to save the money and go into Spring Training with him battling a couple guys like Patterson for the starting CF spot.

BCB, the preferred above replacement level sarcasm supplier.

by MadJimiBrewha on Aug 17, 2009 9:35 AM CDT reply actions

I'm fine with a couple of guys

as long as they do not involve Patterson. I can’t believe that people don’t realize how horrible he is.

E: George 4 (5, throw, throw, throw, throw).

Oh come on...

He’s a younger version of Cameron without the Gold Gloves and HRs.

Who doesn’t want that?

by sjlee on Aug 17, 2009 2:54 PM CDT up reply actions

He's not that much younger...

"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."

by Kyle Lobner on Aug 17, 2009 3:37 PM CDT up reply actions

I think it was a joke :)

or the ability to get on base. But hey he’s black and he plays center field!

E: George 4 (5, throw, throw, throw, throw).

by Jordan M on Aug 17, 2009 6:15 PM CDT up reply actions

But he was the third overall pick!

That means he’s at least as good as Eric Munson!

Figures that Dillard's first game with more than 4 K this season would be a loss.

Another puss who hides behind crap.
