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.

How are these guys doing this? Why did the Brewes trade Burnes? (Although Ortiz looks like a good player).
So impressed with the Crew. Excellent series.

Adames hitting. 500 with 2hrs! Dansby 1-18! Who would you prefer?  

Right now Adames but it would have been a tougher call over the last 3-5 year stretch. Very similar numbers from 2021-2023 seasons. Swanson is also a very good defensive SS (won a Gold Glove).

Look I am as excited as anyone about the Crew's play so far this year. Still a long, long season and I would take the Cubs Starting pitchers in a heartbeat over the Crew's. Cubs really have several quality MLB starters with more depth to fill out the 5th/6th guy in the rotation. Hope Gasser continues to eat up quality innings but we need some more depth and we surely can't absorb any more injuries to Freddie, Rea, Wilson etc. Hope we can get a healthy/effective D. Williams back in July. Have to remember we now also get to see the best teams (Phillies, Braves, Dodgers etc) over the next 60 days.  Thought we would be "sellers" in July, but hope we will now be "buyers"..

Yes! Got through the Cubs 'murderers row' of pitchers without a scratch! Adames hitting. 500 with 2hrs! Dansby 1-18! Who would you prefer?  
Should have been a sweep, but ​3 out of 4 OK!
When do we play them again?  
CC had that befuddled look we all remember!

I’m happy for team, but we know it’s a grudge match every series. Glad we got this one. 
Have to be more consistent and win 7/8 out of every 10. Have to keep putting 100% every game. Go Crew!

Congrats Brewers and fans.  I like their energy, style, and aggressive play so far.  Give me young, hungry players that overachieve. Murphy is my kind of manager.  Seems to get the most out of his guys.

Once again, I say who are theses guys !!  Give me a young aggressive team any day. When they need a player, just call one up from the minors, no problem.
How many more rabbits are left in the hat............. Pitching has been amazing !!

Kona.   Just how many errors did Bauers have last nite?    Some say 2 some say 1 and on B/ R they say 3.     Last night I saw 3.    

Sorry Carpio but I just listened to the game at a Charity event last night. I did see two of the plays in question on highlights and they were definitely errors in my mind.  

Was helping out a neighbor today so just saw bits/pieces of the game. Did come in to see the 8th/9th innings. How Sweet !!!!!  There was another catcher this spring in the Cactus League that was tearing the cover off the ball for the Crew and was not sure Sanchez should even make the club. I was way off base on that thought. Yeah, he will not hit for average or high On Base Percentage but he has had some big hits for the Crew.

Similar comment on Ortiz's play so far.  Once again, will admit I was not happy with the Corbin Burnes trade (timing and our return from the Orioles). The Pitcher/DL Hall really struggled but Ortiz has been solid. Great defense and he has a good avg/OPS and On-Base %.

That was a GREAT win, take 3 of 4 from the Cubs. Sanchez hit the snot out of that home run ball. Adames was 7 of 15 in the series

Time to bring on the other Chicago team for hopefully bust out the brooms
