     I dislike using the word "hate".
     But let's say the Brewers simply can't afford to pay BOTH Ryan Braun AND Prince Fielder.

     Parish the thought.  

     Hopefully it won't happen.

     But what if it came down to keeping one of the two?  Who would YOU choose?

     I'd have to say Braun; 

     Prince is the youngest player to hit fifty homers in major league HISTORY.

     The man is a team leader; a fabulous player.

     But Ryan Braun was born to hit.

     As he's shown over the past two games, with four homers, this young fella can carry a team with his bat.

     Then again, so can Prince.

     If I sound like I'm sittin' on the fence; it's because I AM!

     But, if ya pin me against the outfield fence, I'd have to say Ryan Braun.

     I may have written here that in spring training, the ultra-confident Braun told me that he wants to be historically great.

     I think he will be-thus my pick.

     I'm pullin' hard for both to be in the Brewers future.

     But if that's just not realistic, who would YOU keep??

Jen Lada is clinging to the DeLoreanesque nature of this blog.

I have both Fielder and Braun on my fanasy team and I am really of sick of Fielder. Neither one of then were doing very much up until now, but Fielder seems like he just doesn't care. Everyone says his diet has nothing to do with his terrible stats this year, but I don't agree. I would keep Braun!!

There's no way Fielder is staying here when he's free agent eligible.

Keep Braun, but I'm not sure he'd want to stay here either.

Braun, but I hate to think of a scenario where we would have to choose one or the other.

Braun, no fielder. Fielder, no Braun.

Oh I don't know.

I am happy Braun signed , but we need a good bat behind him so I hope Fielder grows a brain and fires his agent and negotiates his own deal to stay with the brewers if not we an always put laPorta in the OF and move Corey Hart to first for alot less Money..believe me by the end of the year when they expand the roster and Prince doesn't have 30+ jacks alot of you will be thinking the same thing.
