I live in Arizona and typically attend a bunch of spring training games each March. The spring training tickets typcially go on sale in November/early December. So, any day now. That said, tickets at Maryvale have never really been in massive demand unless the crew is playing the Angels/Cubs/Dodgers/D'backs. I expect a small surge of Wisconsonites this spring, but I doubt its more than an extra 2k fans per game. Most Maryvale games get like 5k to 7k fans. Maybe most games this spring will draw 8k or 9k. Also, remember some people might not buy tickets with the lockout pending. I personally typically buy a bunch of tickets in December. I wont do so this year until the lockout is resolved. So, if having to plan a big trip from Wisconsin, I bet that scares some folks away. That would be a lot of cancel/postpone if the lockout drags on.

Waaaay too long. Gave the cubs life.

I'm sure a one way ticket to AAA.

And Lance McCullers was dfa'd like 2 days later

All was not lost today...

Freddy Peralta is now gone. Willy Adames also now two years removed. I think those were both big clubhouse guys, so that has affected things a bit. Also doesnt help that the Cubs have gotten hot at the wrong time and the Brewers have been injured/struggled a bit at the wrong time. If the team is stacking wins it is much easier to look like a tight knit family.

I am about done with David Hamilton. Guy sucks.

Every year. Just have to acquire some gas can reliever.

Okay. I'm ready for Senzatela to be dfa'd. Bring Anderson up.

Couldn't agree more. I know your Uribe threw some serious pitches over the weekend, but 3 days off is a bit much.

Really funny timing on your post. Earlier today I was thinking the same thing on Drohan. He was really good in that role. No idea why the Brewers removed from that role this season.

Definitely not. Contreras never accepted a day off the first 5 years of his career. Now really wearing down with injuries.

I dont know about "LMAO." It all depends on the cost...

No. They were after Colton Gordon and had to take McCullers and $2 million of his salary to get Gordon. That said, good on the Brewers for cutting bait quick if they didn't think they could fix him.
