Date	Question	Answer
2009-05-21 14:00:00	Jody Gerut was just traded from San Diego to Milwaukee for Tony Gwynn Jr. Thoughts? (Ryan from NY)	I don't understand it. Gerut is the better player. Gwynn is...his uncle, more or less? (Joe Sheehan)
2009-05-21 14:00:00	Does Jody Gerut in Milwaukee mean less ABs for a struggling Corey Hart? Or is this just a depth move? (Chris from Austin, MN)	Well, I know Chris Duffy was on the roster, so this is better. I could see Hart losing some time. The Brewers have been so very right-handed the last few years; adding Gamel and Gerut would help that a lot. (Joe Sheehan)
2009-04-16 13:00:00	I think the Padres have a real chance of making it this year! (Oranguntang from Sevilla)	I wish. Sadly, I see more of Jake Peavy and Chris Young doing well with no one caring, and Adrian Gonzalez and Brian Giles being top 15-20 hitters in the NL again while most of the rest of the lineup lags behind (but not you Jody Gerut, we love you). (Marc Normandin)
2008-03-25 14:00:00	What do you expect out of Jody Gerut? Will he get much playing time when Edmonds is healthy? (theguag from Louisville)	Not a lot, but more than any of us expected, certainly. I just don't have a lot of confidence about his ability to hold up and play a corner with any mobility in full-time play, but that takes nothing from the prospective achievement of his making it all the back to The Show. (Christina Kahrl)
