Brewers News
Cool little feature about Eduardo Morlan: Between battling to stay on the roster, the Rule Five status, and his Cuban heritage, it’s an interesting story. The way Jorge Julio has looked so far, Morlan surely has a shot of making the team.
Mike Cameron will sit a few days with a tweaked ribcage.
Between the Green Pillars rolls the dice on Rickie Weeks: The more I read Haudricourt and Co. critiquing Richard, the more I imagine him as a child. BTGP is right; Rickie is a decent player…his potential to be so much more has led to his downfall.
I’ve been overly critical/impatient of him in past years, but I think he’ll continue to improve, but he’ll never be the player we all thought he’d be.
