Yeah I know baseball is ruined and ther Brewerw are almost as severly hampered by Princess Prieb as they are the lack of revenue sharing, but Im still excited. I am probably crazy but I think the Crew should be .500 this year and if Sheets, Wright, Quevedo, and Nuegebaur pitch up to their potential and we dont swing at everything, I think the crew can win 90 and be in the wild card race late, which is something we havent seen in a long, long time. They must finish over .500 to avoid 10 years straight of losing seasons. I think it is time for a coup to remove Princess Prieb.

I hope Murphy settled deep in your heart Kona!
Putting Ortiz in lead off was inspired. Yes there are pitching issues but he’s no control over injurys. Murph’s got these guys believing, stealing bases, playing hard everyday. Stuff like Bauer just plain getting psyched out after error #1 yesterday is gonna happen. But check out Turangs hitting turnaround, Ortiz becoming a fielding, hitting 3rd sacker, the incredible plays by Perkins etc. And as you mentioned the whole time working with a patch work of starting pitching. Yeah it could all come tumbling down on us, but our division is ripe for taking. After todays big game( and i’m not going fishing till games over) the series with Phillies will tell us alot.
I used to be just a casual Brewer fan but now become rabid. Murphys done that anyway haha

Came into the year with big questions about our Starting Pitching and overall Offense. So far the offense has definitely exceeded expectations. Crew is 4th in MLB in runs scored..6th in HR's and 5th in total OPS. Still not sure we can keep that pace but really a great storyline so far.
Starting pitching remains a concern but we are winning with this mixed collection of Starters. Believe we have had 11 different guys start games so far this year. I know a few were due to "Bullpen" days but still pretty amazing that will go into June with the lead in the Division with this staff. Murphy is growing on me !!
