For those interested in the Brewers lineup...

Today's AZ Republic lists Bill Hall as the starting 3B, with no mention of Koskie.

Judging by the spring, it looks like Brady Clark will try to steal a lot this year.

So is JJ Hardy a good fastball hitter?

Its wrong, Koskie is the starting 3B. Hall will likely get the majority of the AB's against lefties and is the backup at 2B/SS and maybe sometimes CF.

Im really pretty suprised to see Hardy hitting 2nd instead of Weeks. I guess I never really thought about it too much though. On one hand you have Weeks who is better offensively in almost every aspect - speed, power, average, while on the other Hardy is certainly no slouch, but I dont ecxpect him to get on base nearly as often as Weeks. On top of that, wouldnt Weeks be more dangerous on the basepaths than Hardy as well? I can understand the power argument - that Weeks power will help with RBI's - but I just dont think it outweighs the difference that batting Weeks 2nd would bring.

Weeks hitting 2nd would bring more disruption to the defense IMO since he should get on base more and be more dangerous once on base as well. I know Im no Brewers expert, but this just doesnt make that much sence to me.

Bill Hall should be a full-time player & he will be with in 6 weeks tops when Koskie goes down for an extended period of time.

Prince Fielder is going to have a great year.
