Maybe Geren should Pre-empt his upcoming 8th inning struggles and bring in a reliever before Blanton has a chance to load the bases.

I guarantee you that if when Devine comes back and the team decide to keep Foulke over some younger pitcher there will be complaints.

Also, if Sweeney returns and takes at bats from Barton and Hannahan then there will be complaints as well

Emil = Scoot - Love

Scoot
06 .266/.350/.397
07 .260/.332/.361
08 .249/.347/.316
career
.258/.323/.377

But Emil hasn’t beat Mo Riv and KRod like Scoot had.

I wasn't a Scutaro fan either

But those numbers are a lot more acceptable for a backup infielder than a starting corner OF.

I don't consider him a starter

I think that he is on the bench completely once Thomas comes back (Sweeney, Cust, Gonz.= OF/ Thomas -DH).

I think that Brown is pretty much a reserve role right now.

Then again until Thomas returns he is our best option.

Scoot was a backup middle infielder!

He was an excellent 2B and an okay SS. Emil Brown, at least from what I’ve seen, is a crappy corner outfielder.

So he’s a crappy corner outfielder who hits like a backup middle infielder, and we’re supposed to like him?
