What a brilliant lineup. Hall, Jenks, Branyan 2-3-4, while those silly Overbay and Grieve guys in 5-6 where they belong. edit: I forgot, as Ned says, #5 is basically a second leadoff man, so that's perfect. Oh wait, who drives them in again?
Brewers face the Human Rain Delay tonight, once again playing the "will any offense show up today" game. Mr Sharpie looks to get win #11...

Another run thanks to Moeller/Bennett. Can't we have some sort of mercy rule when they're down by more than 3 or something? Does Bennett officially suck yet?
Robert, he obviously is talking about the future as in 5 or 10 years from now, since Wright is obviously the PRESENT. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
I agree that anything above .500 looks pretty unlikely, but I seem to remember a 10-game winning streak last year. Everyone would have said that was just (more?) as unlikely then. Crazy things happen in baseball...
