Friends, family, and everyone else,

We gather here today to mourn the loss of our friend, the 2009 season.

It was a good season, a fun season — it had its ups and downs, like any fun season. We stuck with it through the thick and thin, and wanted so hard for them to succeed… but we didn’t expect it to end this early. Its life was too short.

Of course the season isn’t actually over yet, since the Brewers are only 4.5 games out of first place in a terribly weak division. But with the way things are going right now they won’t be contending for long, and unless the battered pitching staff can pull something out of its ass they’ll be giving up 8-10 runs on a nightly basis. Expect another post later today on the pitching staff, unless some kind of trade breaks through…

Hopefully Doug Melvin is pulling something out here. Washburn, Morrow, and Clement for Hardy + another prospect? Who knows — he’s probably going to the Yankees. They’ve shown interest. We’ll see.
