Wade Miller develops a shoulder problem

Anybody that believes this injury to Wade Miller is any worse today than it was Sunday before he could only get through 4.2 innings against the Cardinals...

Well, we all know the deal, and if he was trying to do it hurt, then it's a tough break. The guy has more heart than the other, un-named glory hounds that can't seem to crack a lineup these days and maybe he can still regain his form. Chances are, it's over for Wade Miller, and that's sad. He goes out without the hoopla, or padded paycheck that some others get.

I like that with this move it looks like Lou has won the battle of wills with Hendry about having twelve pitchers, and I like that he is sticking with Pie so far, though the kid HAS to start hitting. I would still rather have him in the line up than continually going to Jones and Floyd, each a rally killer in their own right with differing and varying magnitudes. Jones is streaky, Floyd gives you the idea that he can get hot, but yesterday when the wind was blowing out, he was 0-5.

I also remember liking Rocky Cherry in the spring, and thinking that he deserved a chance and so here it is kid. Maybe they will send Ohman back when it comes time to bring up Guzman for a start.

Tonight I'm hoping to see Carlos return to form and be the horse in the rotation he has been for two years. I'm also wondering if the Brewers are going to do anything about the chip they have on their shoulders from when Carlos said in the press that they weren't as good hitting as Cincinnatti.

Let's go Brew-Crew, what ya got?
