Axford, Braun, Fielder, Marcum or Morgan: Who Will Be Brewer Of The Week?

by Kyle Lobner on Jun 10, 2011 12:01 PM CDT in Conversation Starters

Coming off a 5-2 week, it seems like one Brewer of the Week candidate stands head and shoulders above the others. But, as always, it's your decision.

John Axford pitched four scoreless innings this week, picking up three saves and a win in the process. He's converted 13 consecutive save opportunities.

Ryan Braun had a hit in six of the seven Brewer games this week, batting .360/.407/.560 and climbing into the National League lead with 46 runs scored.

Prince Fielder hit .391/.517/1.261 with six home runs this week. Eight of his nine hits this week went for extra bases, despite the fact that he hit just .231 on balls in play.

Shaun Marcum pitched six scoreless innings against the Mets on Tuesday, allowing just two hits.

Reigning and defending Brewer of the Week Nyjer Morgan hit .250/.280/.458 this week, and drove home the game winning run during the ninth inning Wednesday.

Prince is going to win this going away

But I voted for Ax as an early Father’s Day gift

Man it's a landslide.

I’d guess that players who have the shift put on them often (Ryan Howard, Prince Fielder) have lower BABIP than they otherwise would.

This might be the most lopsided BOtW ever.

"That's not a weird stat. Rickie is a run-scorer," Yost said. "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter," Yost told reporters. "See, you guys have no concept. He's a run-scorer. So there's nothing weird about it. That's what he does."
