When a guy can miss three weeks worth of games and still lead a talented club in home runs, you know you have something special |

Nelson, Brad |

Nelly is due back within the next week, officially ending the gimp race between he and Hardy for the #1 spot |

Fielder, Prince |

Prince is still walking a lot, but is also third on the club in strikeouts |

Krynzel, Dave |

Might be time to leash Dave to first base for while |

Parra, Manny |

Hasn't hit a batter yet this season while trying to work inside a lot, which is a testament to Manny's control prowess |

Bat continues to stay hot, pulling ahead of Hardy in batting average |

Ford, Matt |

Yost was quoted as saying he wanted to give Matt a few starts, and the prospoect of that happening is looming closer and closer |

Martinez, Luis |

There is a chance that Luis could be promoted to Indy for the second half of the season |

Petty, Chad |
A |

L |

The good news is, is that Chad's 12.79 ERA is not the worst ERA on the club and will probably only come down the rest of the way |

Diggins, Ben |

Lots of conflicting news on the nature of Diggins' injury coming in, but my guess is surgery remains unlikely |

Cruz, Enrique |
A |

R |

It's nice to see Clayton's average back over .200 so that Enrique doesn't have to worry about playing more or anything |

Clark, D.J. |

Still nice to the OBP still up, but it would be even nicer to see the bat start coming around as well |

Hometown newspaper had him assigned to Beloit, but Lou will almost definitely be headed to Helena |

Will this latest injury finally convince the Brewers that maybe JM's future lies in the bullpen? |

Murray, Josh |

R |

Josh might be wise to try working some at third base in the near future, as the middle infield path appears to be blocked by Hardy and Weeks |

Childers, Matt |

Another guy that could be in line for a midseason promotion, especially with his work at Indy last season |

Batting average is out of the sewer, plate discipline still in it |

Adams, Mike |

Still inconsistent in relief, so here's a thought: try stretching Mike out in the rotation to see if he can work some kinks out over longer outings |

Barnes, Justin |

With 11th rounder Heether in the fold, it'll be interesting to see where Justin plays in Helena |

Sarfate, Dennis |
MLB |
MR |

R |

High Desert officials have to be praying the Brewers are willing to promote at least one of the starters to their club soon, and Sarfate looks like a good candidate for that |

Villanueva, Froilan |

Froilan is hitting the ball a bit harder as of late, giving the Mavs some much needed power |

Eveland, Dana |

Assigned to Helena, along with 20 other pitchers, so if they give Dana a rotation spot, it'll be an honor |
