What a difference a division makes. If the Brewers played in the NL West, they'd open play tonight 13 full games behind the first-place Dodgers. Instead, despite being a game under .500, they'll open play tonight just 4.5 games back, and sending Manny Parra to the mound tonight to try to gain some ground.
Can the Brewers improve to .500 on both the season and the road trip tonight? Follow the jump for tonight's pitching matchup, lineup and conversation on tonight's game!
Clayton Kershaw (8-5, 2.76) is one of baseball's best young pitchers, and will make his 44th major league appearance (and 43rd start) tonight despite being just 21 years old. His 6.2 hits per nine innings is the lowest number in the National League, but his 65 walks on the season put him among the league leaders. Kershaw is 5-0 in his last nine starts, and has posted a 0.79 ERA while holding opponents to a .484 OPS over that time.
Compared to that, Manny Parra (5-8, 6.50) looks like chopped, maybe even spoiled, liver. His 11.2 hits per nine innings are 80% more than Kershaw allows. Despite being 2-0 since returning from AAA, Parra has allowed nine earned runs in his last eleven innings pitched (7.36 ERA), walking eight and striking out ten. Parra has been striking more men out since returning to the big leagues, but he's also throwing a lot more pitches: At least 106 in each of his last four starts.
Bill Hall rejoined the team today after spending a few days in AAA, and gets the start tonight in right field for the first time in his major league career (h/t JS):
2B Felipe Lopez
3B Casey McGehee
LF Ryan Braun
1B Prince Fielder
CF Mike Cameron
SS J.J. Hardy
RF Bill Hall
C Mike Rivera
LHP Manny Parra
And in the bullpen:
Mitch Stetter pitched .2 innings (4 pitches) yesterday, and also pitched Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
Claudio Vargas pitched ,1 innings (16 pitches) yesterday, and also pitched Saturday.
Todd Coffey pitched 2 innings (32 pitches) yesterday.
Trevor Hoffman pitched one inning (18 pitches) yesterday.
Mark DiFelice pitched .1 innings (13 pitches) on Saturday.
R.J. Swindle has not pitched since Friday.
Chris Smith has not pitched since Friday.
Enjoy the game!

Just an FYI for those of you with the MLB network: They’re scheduled to show a 90-minute program on the 82 Brewers Wednesday from Noon – 1:30 CDT (10 a.m. here on the West Coast).
Just thought I’d post that so you could set the DVR…. I always seem to stumble on these programs when they’re halfway over!
Anyone read Witrado's article on the JS blog?
It’s about Hall getting a start in RF. More importantly, there is evidence that TH and AW talk to each other.
WOW!!!!!
Cards Announcers On Gamel's First Career HR, ""That’s all they need is another home run hitter".
Probably not the best weekend for TH or AW.
Drew Olson mentioned that the JS let a bunch of people go over the weekend. I’m actually kind of surprised they’re both still working.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
I'm guessing that brewers blog alone is one of the most heavily hit pages on that site
Cards Announcers On Gamel's First Career HR, ""That’s all they need is another home run hitter".
Probably.
But newspaper staffing cuts aren’t about protecting popular features or making money down the road, they’re about short-sighted cost cutting.

I don't remember seeing Catman throw very often
But I would not be shocked to discover Braun has a better arm than any of the current right field options, or Hart for that matter.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
I'm quite sure you're right.
How late is too late for a position change?

Brewer lineup
Starts with four guys over .300, finishes with four guys under .230.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
So that means the bottom 4 will hit much better than the top 4
according to Murphy

We didn't have one .300 hitter last year

If you love the Brewers or are that much of a fan, you watch because of the love of the team and the game and not because you want to watch a team that wins 100% of the time. If that was the case, you’d be watching the Yankees I’m guessing.

yeah
the article is about teams earning cash other ways and talks about our drive in movies, but its an LA Times article, so its about all these women paying $100 each to be that close to Ethier and do yoga on the field at dodger stadium – when it was 95 degrees
