For the Second Straight Year, Moeller is My Punching Bag

The Brewers take two Friday afternoon, beating San Francisco and Oakland. Is it significant? Well, only for this reason:

From the link above,

Catcher Chad Moeller did not appear in either of the split-squad games Friday because of a bruise at the base of his left hand. Moeller suffered the injury when he was struck by a foul tip Thursday against the Giants but X-rays were negative, Yost said.

Coincidence?

Moeller could sit out a few more days before returning to action. Mike Rivera started at Oakland in Moeller's place and hit a three-run homer.

I like the part about Moeller sitting out a "few" more days. How about 210? And if we make the playoffs, 240?
