The Brewers have the best record in baseball and are a better team today than they were yesterday.

Have the Brewers improved themselves as much as the Cubs or Dodgers? I would say no.

The Dodgers could have done nothing and still been the best team in baseball.  Cubs, eh, we'll see but they had a lot of work to do just to catch up.

I get what everyone is saying. The Brewers are a really good balanced baseball team. The only team more balanced is the Dodgers, that has not changed since the deadline passed. Cubs pitching is still inferior, Phillies defense is still awful. 2026 is probably the Dodgers year again and I hated the trade with the Cardinals. That being said I actually think the Crew signs May to a three year deal. His stuff is really good. The Brewers “timeline “ is 2027-2031. We just don’t have the pitching depth in the minors and May fits a sign able guy who has upside.

The Cubs pitching has been really solid for the last several weeks and now they have added 2 veteran SP and 2 relievers.

I guess it remains to be seen who has the better pitching going forward when you factor in the load management that the Brewers are going to need with their younger pitchers.

And that's gained them very little in terms of the standings.

So is this a six man rotation now or does Sproat (or Drohan) go to the pen?  I guess you have Gasser and Crow to sprinkle in for load managment.

Yeah Brian, don't need to hear about Chourio hitting batting practice lollipops out of the park.  We know he has power.

All of the analysts I have seen so far have rated the Brewers as one of the biggest losers at the deadline. First for not going all in on Skubal and then for not doing better than May as a Plan B SP (and probably overpaying for him).

The analysts always underestimate the Brewers.  Doesn't really matter to me what a bunch of heads think about what the Brewers have or have not done at the deadline.

This offense is so gross. How do you watch this crap and not get anything you can for a bat. At this point just trying to throw something different on the wall to see if it sticks,

I feel kinda blah about this season now.  The regular season is what it is.  The season is going to end the same way it always does.  Just a matter what round.

Gotta wonder what our Skubal offer was

Pena and Henderson to start with one of Knoth or Letson.  That seems to be the working theory but I'm not sure they really got that far.

With all of these division titles the Brewers are going to be evaluated based on their potential to go deep in the playoffs. And there they have not been underestimated.
