You have to remember that during the end of the season the Cubs started to fall apart again. It was evident in the playoffs that the Cubs were falling apart. If we wouldn't have lost those games in Atlanta that we should have won it would have been the Brewers winning the division and not the Cubs. Unfortunately the ball didn't bounce correctly and we couldn't pull off the wins when we needed to. But this year I don't see why the Brewers couldn't win 90-95 games. Even if Sheets goes down we still have help in the form of Bush and Vargas. Which is a lot better than what we had last year to fill in for Sheets. With Gallardo having a lot of experience in the bigs I can see him winning 15 or more games this year. The only real question mark is at the closer spot. Which to me is not that important, a closer doesn't really affect a game as much as defense and hitting does. The downfall of the Brewers last year was their defense. This year the team has improved defensively and the bullpen is extremely better than what is was last year. Now I can't see how you give the edge over last years catching core. This years catchers are a lot better than what we had last year. Miller really was the only good catcher we had on the team. I truly believe that Estrada was a cancer to the team. Kendall will be better offensively than Estrada he won't hit as many home runs but we really don't need home runs from the catchers position. Kendall brings a real #8 hitter to the Brewers. We didn't have a #8 hitter last year we had a couple of guys who could be hitting anywhere but in the 8th spot. Kendall will be the quiet addition to the Brewers that will put us over the hump that we couldn't get over last year.
