The Continuing Saga of Batshit

Julian Tavarez has opted for free agency rather than accepting an assignment by the Brewers to Triple-A Nashville.  In his seven relief appearances for Milwaukee, Batshit was charged with ten runs, seven of them earned.  The other three runs scored on a throwing error by Tavarez himself. 

But loyal fans of the Brew Crew need not fret!  Captain Blownsavebeard is scheduled to make one more rehab start before rejoining the team!

Batshit Update

Julian Tavarez pitched a scoreless eight inning Tuesday night for the Brewers.   Said Batshit:  "It doesn't matter if I'm a long man, a setup man, a closer. As long as we play ball, I don't care what role that I am."  

Apparently, this enthusiasm for the game doesn't apply to his post-season accomplishments.  Tavarez reportedly left his $20,000 World Series Ring "somewhere" back at Fenway.   Batshit clarified:  "They are going to mail to me, I'm sure."  

Assuming Gagne ever recovers from rotator cuff tendinitis, there is the distinct possibility that the Brewers could sending the one-two punch of  Batshit and Captain Blownsavebeard out of the pen.
