Had to read that second sentence a couple of times. Thought either my eyes are going downhill fast or sveumrules started the weekend early! In all seriousness, way to early for a eulogy. I'll admit this team has major issues, but it looks like alot of other teams do as well. As impressive as the Dodgers appear, they to have a major issue, middle relief. Get to the starters and you got them. It's hard not to look at the standings, I'm guilty as well. You never know, it can all start clicking tomorrow. Probably not, but you don't know until you play! Unless there is a different definition than average, I seriously doubt there will be two or three teams with like an 84-78 record making the playoffs. If the brewers are counting on that we might want to change our business model for next year Brewers are definitely not out of it, but put it this way, the Brewers needs to go 31-21 to finish 88-74, that might do the trick. Not outrageous. My opinion is they are probably not good enough to do that. Nothing really backs up the Brewers playing .600 ball (including run differential) especially with Woodruff out. Trying to take an unbiased view from 40,000 feet, I think their competitors are just better equipped and probably just a little bit better period But that's just an opinion. Message boards would be pretty boring if we have 30 straight posts that say, I hope we win today and lets see what happens to get this big run started the last two months the first thing that might help is maybe just maybe stop shoehorning Shaw in the lineup
