Current Standings:

Brewers 49-40 1st place in NL Central but sucking badly at the moment
Rockies 45-44 4th place in NL West

Notes:

-I'm expecting a loss tomorrow because Sheets doesn't have that God given ability to be a winner like Jeff Suppan.

-Ever notice that whenever somebody goes out to talk to a Brewers pitcher (Maddux, Yost or the catcher) the next pitch is usually crushed into Lake Michigan?

-So Braun has 13 homeruns which is tied for third on the team. I sure am glad we got veteran winners to man 3rd base for nearly 2 months or we wouldn't be in 1st place right now.

-Weeks got a hit last night. I'm stunned I didn't think he remembered how to make contact.

For the love of God please don't suck tomorrow!

If the Brewers don't win, a javelin will go hurtling towards Ned Yost, just because someone should be held accountable.

[Buck You]

Lol @ the Weeks statement. I was saying that when he got a hit too. Also, what is up with Rodrigo's picture? He looks possessed.

[MickeyDavis]

Brewers are 8-2 in games I've been to this year. Let's make it 9-2.

[brewcityboii]

We need a dominant game today from benny I was at the game last night and they looked real stale. i really think yost needs to switch up the rotation.

This is a must win. I don't care what anyone says.

With the way we've been playing, and the way the cubs have been playing, it is a must win.

I don't see a must win in july win your up 3.5 games. Our pitches have to locate better. This game isn't a must win. If we are down 4 games in august then that is a must win. This game no.

The Cubs are about to shave that down to 3 games. This is a must win for my sanity's sake

Trwi must be hitting his head against the wall watching this Tony Gwynn lovefest.

You have no idea. Future leadoff hitter and CF'er pops out to the catcher!

[goirish2107]

well ****. sheets out with some finger ailment, not a blister, something happened on a pitch

[trwi7]

All I have to say is bye-bye Sheets, bye-bye division.

[crkone]

Well... There goes the season.

Suppan and Capuano will pick up the slack

[crkone]

Why couldn't Capuano get hurt yesterday instead of this today??? Saturday the 14th is a bitch.

[worthlessBucks]
