Week 2 Review
Brewers record: 6-8 (2 GB behind the Reds)
Brewers record last week: 2-4
Power Rankings: 19th (11th)
Our best games were a 7-6 slugfest win at the Rockies and a come from behind walk-off win against the Pirates. In addition we lost two low scoring one run games against the Giants and Rockies. Our offense is among the worst in the league, but lead the league in steals. Our pitching is just about average.
We lost No 2 starter Angel Miranda (0-1, 6.14 ERA) to the 60-day DL with a partially torn labrum. He might return around the All-Star-Game. We chose to keep veteran starter Teddy Higuera (1-0, 7.36 ERA) in the bullpen and promoted Cal Eldred from AAA to join the rotation. Eldred pitched a 3-hit shutout in his only start at AAA New Orleans. Eldred's first game a day earlier than planned after No 4 started had to leave his start without getting an out and mild oblique strain.
Darryl Hamilton watch:
