From a fan psychology standpoint, the early season outs at home were compounded by the failures the Brewers exhibited in failing to make the defensive plays necessary to record the same putouts other teams were posting when the Brewers attempted to score. Creates a certain level of frustration causes folks to place blame and draw conclusions based on the limited evidence at hand. That evidence, butressed by fair helping of inexcusably dumb individual player decisions, makes it hard to come to any objective conclusions about strategy.
