The Milwaukee Brewers Shortstop Situation

Jerry Hairston Jr., one of the players who sparked the Brewers’ late season surge to the top of the NL Central as well as their NLDS victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks, will not be back next season. He signed a two-year, $6 million dollar contract… [More]

Ryan Braun Wins National League MVP

Ryan Bruan is the 2011 National League Most Valuable Player. The debate between his season and Matt Kemp’s season will rage in internet baseball communities, but then settle down. As I wrote this morning, it wouldn’t have made Braun’s season any less spectacular if Kemp… [More]

Ryan Braun And The MVP

CARDINALS 4, Brewers 3: Plenty Of Blame Beyond Kotsay

In probably the most inexplicable decision of the Milwaukee Brewers season to date, Mark Kotsay received the start in center field in Wednesday’s Game Three of the NLCS. In related news, the Milwaukee Brewers lost Game Three of the NLCS. Kotsay put together one of… [More]

Road Failure Is Not A Constant For Milwaukee

With the two losses in Phoenix during the NLDS, the Brewers have fallen to 39-44 on the road. Between that unimpressive record and the specter of three games at St. Louis, there is naturally some fear among the fanbase concerning the Brewers’ chances of advancing… [More]

Cardinals 12, BREWERS 3: Pujols Burns Marcum

Albert Pujols has had talent surrounding him in St. Louis, but really, there’s a reason why his teams win so often, and he displayed that at Miller Park tonight. Pujols put together a historic performance, going 4-for-5 with three doubles and a homer, effectively accounting… [More]

BREWERS 9, Cardinals 6: Six in Five for One

The mark of a great team is the resiliency to win despite the failure of one cog of the machine. Zack Greinke may have picked up his 12th win at home and his team may have won for his 18th straight home start (dating back… [More]
