Obviously Kruk knows what he's talking about. The Brewers are 0-3 since we had our September callups.

I don't know if he's sweating it, but an old 1B and high priced first baseman would be replaceable IMO. The contract is guaranteed, but his job isn't. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (JJHardy7) http://brewersfandemonium.yuku.com/sreply/436485 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 15:19:47 GMT http://brewersfandemonium.yuku.com/reply/436355/t/Sept-1st--ups-Latest---including-Gamel-Salome--Escobar-reply.html#reply-436355

The Brewers really don't have a guy like that (maybe Kendall?), but a guy like Delgado knows his end is soon and some hotshot coming up might be a distraction.

If the impact isn't enough that there's something showing in the on-field play, what's the point for Kruk claiming the call-ups are 'disruptive'?

Is there any definite word on what the roster moves were to get Gamel and Salome on the 40-man? I don't see it on the Brewers website. They have 42 men on the 40-man roster.

if you go to some AA or AAA games in August you can hear a lot of chatter -- these guys want to be in the bigs and stay in the bigs. Of course they want to be in the big leagues. That's the whole point of playing in the minors. I would think very few players play in the minors just for fun.

Dillard
TGJ
Iribarren
Nelson
Pena
Rottino

Probably:
Escobar (perhaps not until Huntsville is finished)
Narron/Nix/Stocker/Turnbow (38 currently on the 40, plus can 60-day DL Capuano and outright Gardner)

Outside chance:
Choate
Hammond
Gamel
