Haven't been paying attention to the Brewers...didn't realize they were sliding.

They're a mess and can't stay healthy at all. Gallardo and Wolf have been awful for the most part. K-Rod has blown ass. Axford has been so-so. Manny Parra and Kameron Loe have been their best pitchers thus far. Lucroy leads the team in OBP. Let that sink in for a little bit....

I feel terrible for them.

I don't want the Brewers to finish behind the Cubs, for draft pick purposes. They don't need another hot prospect.

They don't have any right now....they lost all their prospects to get Grienke.

[CFOrfan]

Yeah I know they gave up a ton for him, CC, etc. But they've also had Braun, Weeks, Gallardo, Fielder, and I'm sure a few other guys from their system that are making an impact.

Saw that Hamilton has hit the most HRs in a single series (5) since H. Choi in 2005.



H. Choi!!!!!!

Harper cracked himself in the face slamming a bat against the wall in frustration. Good job dumbass.

[Runnys]

Hamilton blasted two more last night. He is on a tear.



On a sadder note, Beltran and Craig are on fire too. Fucking Cardinals.

Of course Beltran is, Cardinals seem to strike gold with aging veterans....fucking sickening.

Special elixir.

Don't look now...but Justin Verlander is being a badass again against the Pirates.

[chshdsck]

What's making this baseball season somewhat bearable is the fact the Brewers are just two games above the worst team in baseball. At least the Cubs were suppose to be bad this season.



If only the Cards and Sox can have a melt down now.

Matt Carpenter to the DL. Guess that the Cardinals must have changed their source for PEDs to some inferior Chinese manufacturer. Someone should let them know to buy American.

Their batch of PEDs must have run out around mid-May, I suspect.

Hard to believe the Bryce Harper was not even one year old when Chipper Jones made his major league debut (1993)...now they're playing against each other this weekend.
