To make matters worse, Ned Yost deems it necessary to use Mota. This worthless pile of garbage who has been with more teams than my co-worker, Furger, has slept with. Oh hell Ned, just leave him in there after he gave up a home run. He'll pitch out of it right?
Keep this in mind Ned: Just because Mark and Doug brought in Sabathia and will probably bring in one more impact player, doesn't mean you can get away with this shit. I just don't understand how you can leave the pile in there. Yes, Milwaukee is still the hottest team in baseball since May 20th. That doesn't mean squat if you can't win at home against a team that is sub .500!
-Billy Hall hit a home run...yea, I know...I said the same thing (12).
-Holy Crap...JJ Hardy went hit-less last night. It's nice to see him swinging the bat so well. Despite going o'fer last night, he could be mentioned as a first half MVP for the Brewers.
-Garret Atkins continues to wreak havoc on the Crew, crushing 2 homer runs last night along with 3 rbi's.
-Scotty Podsednik also contributed to put the hurt on Milwaukee last night with two hits and two key-rbi's.
-Oddly enough, Dave Bush could be the one who gets shipped to the bullpen despite have the more experience than Seth McClung. I feel he should remain in the rotation and McClung should be sent to the pen. Additionally, Bush could be traded.
-Similar to any other manager in the MLB, Yost wants Braun to sit out during the Home Run Derby. The ol notion of "he'll lose his swing" if he enters has Yost worrying for the young Hebrew.
-Hart is in the lead for the final voting for the All Star game.
-Matt Laporta went 3 for 6 last night for his new AA team in Akron,OH. It was a double heade and all three hits were singles. Meanwhile, back in Huntsville...Mat Gamel went 3 hits and 3 rbi's in their win over Chattanooga. Salome followed suit with his own 3 hits and 3 rbi's while Escobar put the icing on the cake with 4 hits (third 4-hit game this season) and scoring 4 times as well.
Out went one rising star in LaPorta (sad)...but there are 5 or 6 other players who are just as good in Huntsville!
-Cubs pulled another 1/2 game above the Cards and Brewers, who both lost. Zambrano was lights out. I hate that guy. Cubs have now won their last 17 out of 19 games at Wrigley.
-The Cardinals will most certainly go after a starting pitcher with the discouraging performance Mark Mulder gave last night. He threw only 16 pitches before being taken out of the game with a sore shoulder.
