Jeff Weaver Sighting
There's word out of Milwaukee the Brewers signed Jeff Weaver. Is David Bush's ERA too low for them?
I believe Jeff prefers to be called by his post 2006 name of "World Champion Jeff Weaver">
Either Dave Bush is single-handedly proving wrong the idea that pitchers "don't have much control over balls in play", or he's going to lose perhaps more money than any other player over the life of his career due to bad luck. His peripherals are quite acceptable - maybe even good - but he just can't get the ERA to an average or above-average level.
dave bush suffers another tough loss, tonight due to a lack of run support. had milwaukee been able to score a few runs before the 6th, mr. bush just may have buckled down to earn his first win of the year. but alas, prince, braun, and hall fail to deliver again. might as well throw in rickie "i'd like to be sheffy" weeks and you understand why the brewers will continue to perplex most baseball fans.
