There's a very fascinating article on Fox from a woman who would get regular facials from the mom. Definitely more than meets the eye with this family, and lots and lots of questions that need answers.
Correction, 3 catchers, 1 shortstop, 1 shortstop who is playing 1B for the FIRST TIME IN HIS CAREER, 3 centerfielders, 0 firstbasemen, 0 third basemen and Yuni.
I find it easy to blame Melvin. On opening day, we did not have one 1B on our active roster. Not one! What kind of GM goes into a season without a single 1B on the roster when our regular 1B was on the DL for at least a month? There was no plan other than to start Gonzalez, a crap hitting SS, at that position. So yes, I find it very easy to blame Doug Melvin. Perfectly well said Turborickey!

This brings back painful memories of some really sad years of the Brewers and their awful teams. The Marlins starting lineup tomorrow Pierre Coghlan Stanton Polanco Brantly Solano Kotchman Hechavarria Nolasco Not pretty at all.
I hate Michigan. As a state. As a college football team. As a college basketball team. And they make crappy cars too. Edit: Really, really crappy cars. Detroit is a horrible place to be. I hate Michigan.
Any one know if this is being televised anywhere? I'd like to catch some of it between basketball if possible. I'll be there tomorrow. Don't think it's nationally televised. Maybe locally/regionally.
The most important thing that has to happen this season is that the Brewers finish ahead of the Cubs and Cardinals. Plain and simple. It would make me even happier if the Cards won only 50 games, but that would be icing on the cake.
