Cubs Anger At Coach For Thames’ Comments Is Encouraging
Eric Thames did cool down over the weekend. He did not hit a home run in his last four games. I’m sure people are wondering if he’s in a slump, but that’s not the case likely. I’m embracing the Cards hate if Thames has a
What We Missed: Brewers Ride The Roller Coaster
While in the Dominican Republic, I didn’t try too hard to introduce them to Milwaukee’s Dominican contingent because what I learned in 2008 when I was there last is they really only have affinity for the big-name guys like Big Papi. That said, I did

BrewCap: Pitching Proves Lackluster Again For Milwaukee
Milwaukee Brewers are not fast starters. They’ve started under .500 after the first three games of the season for the last seven years. The last time Milwaukee was 3-0 or 2-1 to begin the year, it was 2010. Even the famed 2011 saw Milwaukee lost
BrewCap: New Year, Same Problems For Brewers
Welcome one and all to the BrewCap. It’s fitting that this is later than I wanted it to be because there’s a great unpredictability with these teams. I do my best to watch every game, but sometimes, it doesn’t happen. Same for timeliness where I
Brewers Rotation Is Set & Brings Mixed Feelings
Milwaukee Brewers are set to play their first game in Miller Park tonight. There’s a great unknown yet again about this team. People think they could be very fun with a bunch of big hitters on the team. The problem lies within the pitching staff.
