The Milwaukee Brewers play tonight at 8:35 PM central
standard time against the San Francisco Giants on MLB network. Tuesday you can
catch the Brewers at 9 PM central standard time on FSN playing the Oakland
Athletics.
The Brewers Mat Gamel has been handed the chance to be
the first baseman for the Crew this season; this is not new to most you,
what has changed for Gamel and the Brewers is the knee injury
to Corey Hart. A surgery is scheduled for Tuesday; Hart is expected to be out 3
to 4 weeks and hopes to be back for the start of the regular season, and likely
will see limited playing time for a few weeks after his return.
The unfortunate
injury to Hart, makes it less likely that Gamel will have to platoon, and the
Brewers can get a better look at what he can do facing left-handed pitching.
Another option for the Brewers at first base is Taylor Green, who also bats left, and had some success at the major league level Last
year with the Brewers. Green could fill in at first base when needed, and can play second and third base, possibly filling the void of the retired Craig Counsell, a valuable utility player.
I am Predicting Mat Gamel will prove himself with consistent
playing time, and I have high expectations for him, and a big year for the Crew.
Tell me what you Think?
Tell me what you Think?
Till next time. Go Brew Crew!
