The Brewer Advent Calendar #23: Joe Inglett

Behind the second door of the 2010 Brewer Advent Calendar we find...Joe Inglett!

As the (second) newest Brewer, Inglett immediately becomes an interesting candidate for the final infield spot on the bench. In 2008, his only "full" season in the majors, Inglett hit .297/.355/.407 in 385 plate appearances while splitting time between second base (66 games), left field (22 games), right field (12 games), third base (six times), shortstop (twice) and center field (once).

He also showed a little bit of speed that season, legging out seven triples and stealing nine bases in eleven attempts. Since 2000, only five Brewers have matched that feat:

Player Season 3B SB
Corey Hart 2007 9 23
Scott Podsednik 2003 8 43
Ryan Braun 2008 7 14
Rickie Weeks 2008 7 19
Scott Podsednik 2004 7 70
Alex Sanchez 2002 7 37

Miller Park Blast

Inglett had a grand slam HR at Miller Park in 2008.

strange game indeed

i was fortunate enough to be at that game. Fielder’s inside-the-park HR, Bush with a No-No into the 8th and then all of a sudden bases are loaded and the ball is flying over the fence – lead cut to one.

I like this guy already. His numbers are impressive. It kind of surprises me a team would let him go. We’ll see what happens in spring training.

Two teams let him go, actually.

Here's proof

I was covering the game and remember that after Inglett’s HR, Rod Barajas of all people beat out an infield roller. I thought that was a sure sign the Jays were going to win.

Inglett just needs a home

Look at this guy’s career stats. He has proven that he belongs in the majors. Bats left, throws right, has speed, and has been a blue collar player for the Indians and Jays. I hope that he finds a home with the Brew Crew.

Good utility guy

Plays any position in a pinch, good baserunner, good plate discipline, lefty bat – with a good spring I’m guessing he makes the team.

Too many lefties.

yeah, every non-catcher bench player is a lefty

Gerut, Edmonds, Inglett, Counsell.
