I'd say there's a pretty good chance that Hank Blalock ends up in MIL for the 2009 season, if he signs a one year contract and heals up decently.
That would give them a LH bat and give Gamel the season to play in Nashville and hopefully, dominate offensively and improve defensively.
Of course, that's assuming TEX will not pick up his option.

Whatever strikes me as
interesting, and serious Milwaukee Brewers thoughts. If you are a believer
in respecting OBP, throwing strikes, and keeping the ball in the park,
you may have found the place you've been searching for. I don't
believe in paying a no hit/good field SS $7 million per year (Jack Wilson, I'm talking about you). I don't think
it's a good idea to "play for a run" early in the game. Build up your
minor league system, and watch success follow.
