Manager and GM Fritsche

30th July 2009

The Padres were swept in convincing fashion and Johjima is batting .692 with 3 HRs and 8 RBIs since joining us. Thats one homer more than Estrada had all season until we traded him.

Several teams offer us shortstops, but I think we can deal well with Izturis' injury.

Now we begin a series against the Astros who play a good season, but are nevertheless 6.0 games behing a playoff spot.

Injury Report:

Milwaukee
- SS C. Izturis (13 days)

Houston
- MR J. Benoit (4-5 months)
- CF M. Cameron (3 months)

Nice to hear that, and it's my pleasure to bring some glory to Milwaukee

Game of last night has to be replayed as the game crashed ...

3rd August 2009

We head now into another week of Inter League play. If things go well, we might start planning for the playoffs as the Cubs are on a very bad streak and fell 10 games out of first place.
The third game against the Astros was a defensive nightmare with promising shortshop Kevin King committing three errors alone.
The team as a whole is still very sound and even if we couldn't trade for another right hander in the bullpen, we should be ready for the three final months of the season.
Our next opponent are the White Sox. We took two out of three against them in May. But since then we made a big trade with them. Will be intersting to see how Herndon, Gagné and Fermaint are doing against us. Ex-Brewers Jeff Suppan (3-3-1, 4.48 ERA) and LF Corey Hart (long term injury) are also still with the White Sox.

League administration announced today that one of the expansion teams will be decided through fanvoting. So readers can in short time cast their vote to decide which city will get an expansion team in 2010. The poll will open soon.

Injury Report:

Time: 2:45

Yovanni Gallardo (9-7, had to leave the game after three innings with a dislocated shoulder. He is expected to be DTD for at least two weeks and is therefore placed on the DL. Francisco Rosario (3-4, 8.13 ERA) gets another chance to proove he's good enough for the big leagues.

We claimed reliever Luis Lebron (5-3-3, 3.98 ERA - AAA) off waivers from the Orioles. He should provide some depth in the bullpen in case some injuries occur. For the time being he reports to AAA Nashville.

Elsewhere:

The Marlins 2B Pedro Lopez (.337, 7 HR, 27 RBI) collected five hits in 8-7 victory over the Yankees.

Thats one homer more than Estrada had all season until we traded him. Several teams offer us shortstops, but I think we can deal well with Izturis' injury. Now we begin a series against the Astros who play a good season, but are nevertheless 6.0 games behing a playoff spot. Injury Report: Milwaukee - SS C. Izturis (13 days) Houston - MR J.

Roster Move: We sent reliever Matt Wise (2-1-1, 6.18 ERA) down to Nashville. Newly acquired Chad Fillinger (2-0-4, 3.10 ERA - AAA) will get the chance as mop up man. To make space we put reliever Mark Lowe (0-0, 5.92 ERA - AAA) on waivers. __________________ The Brewers in the hands of a Black Forest native: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=156352 Last edited by Loeffle : 07-18-2008 at 04:34 PM.

Loeffle All Star Reserve Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: Grand Duchy of Baden Posts: 934	August 2009 - Milwaukee Brewers Manager and GM Fritsche 3rd August 2009 We head now into another week of Inter League play. If things go well, we might start planning for the playoffs as the Cubs are on a very bad streak and fell 10 games out of first place. The third game against the Astros was a defensive nightmare with promising shortshop Kevin King committing three errors alone. The team as a whole is still very sound and even if we couldn't trade for another right hander in the bullpen, we should be ready for the three final months of the season. Our next opponent are the White Sox. We took two out of three against them in May. But since then we made a big trade with them. Will be intersting to see how Herndon, Gagné and Fermaint are doing against us. Ex-Brewers Jeff Suppan (3-3-1, 4.48 ERA) and LF Corey Hart (long term injury) are also still with the White Sox. League administration announced today that one of the expansion teams will be decided through fanvoting. So readers can in short time cast their vote to decide which city will get an expansion team in 2010. The poll will open soon. Injury Report: Milwaukee - SS C. Izturis (10 days) Chicago - LF C. Hart (7 months) - C M. Olivo (1-2 weeks) Game # 106 – Chicago (A) [58-47] (R. Herbort 1-1, 6.52 ERA) at Milwaukee [70-35] (Y. Gallardo 9-7, 4.40 ERA) RF L. Cain - 2B R. Weeks - LF R. Braun - 1B P. Fielder - CF J. Upton - 3B M. Gamel - SS M. Lowell - C K. Johjima Chicago at Milwaukee 8-12 W: M. Parra (3-0); L: R. Herbort (1-2) H: J. Capellan (7) HR: T. Iguchi (11) / R. Weeks 2 (5), M. Lowell 2 (10) E: M. Young (9) / - MoM: M. Lowell - 3/4, 2 R, 2 HR, 5 RBI Time: 2:45 Attendance: 41644 Yovanni Gallardo (9-7, had to leave the game after three innings with a dislocated shoulder. He is expected to be DTD for at least two weeks and is therefore placed on the DL. Francisco Rosario (3-4, 8.13 ERA) gets another chance to proove he's good enough for the big leagues. We claimed reliever Luis Lebron (5-3-3, 3.98 ERA - AAA) off waivers from the Orioles. He should provide some depth in the bullpen in case some injuries occur. For the time being he reports to AAA Nashville. Elsewhere: The Marlins 2B Pedro Lopez (.337, 7 HR, 27 RBI) collected five hits in 8-7 victory over the Yankees. __________________ The Brewers in the hands of a Black Forest native: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=156352 Last edited by Loeffle : 07-19-2008 at 04:24 PM.
