3E8 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Why haven't we had press conferences for our new guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 They should be happy. The Brew Crew got a good player who hopefully will place them atop that division for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Geoff Jenkins is really a team player. He coulda probably said he wanted to stay in left field or given it up unwillingly, but he instead basically gave it to Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Good to see really. I'll have no problem rooting for Carlos to continue to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babybearhater Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Its a great article, but it really makes me think. I am not sure if Carlos can succeed in the cleanup role, nor as being the "man" in the lineup. i always thought that Carlos hit his best in the #2 hole when there were big bats behind him. Im not sure if he will clear 30 bombs this season or even bat 300, it is yet to be seen however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I still miss seeing the Brewers in the A.L. Central though. I remember seeing a few brawls between the Brewers and Sox a couple of times on SportsCenter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know how well he hit there regardless of where he is in the lineup. It'll be nice to see him light up Dempster or Hawkins in the late innings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing his experience with Maggs and Thomas out of the line up proved to himself and the Brewers that he could be. I believe he is on about a 3-4 year run of improvement. I will be surprised if he isn't an all-star in 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatScott82 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 QUOTE(3E8 @ Jan 11, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) Why haven't we had press conferences for our new guys? because KW isn't finished with his moves yet? and possibly wants one HUGE press conferance with all the new faces there.

JUGGERNAUT Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 But he came at a cost. To get Lee, Melvin parted with Podsednik, the team's cover boy and Vizcaino, it's most reliable setup man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
