It’s been a tough weekend to be a Brewers fan. To keep things simple, I’ll just list off what made it so hard. 1. Losing a 7-1 lead to one of the worst teams in baseball. 2. Losing Corey Hart for a month just as he’s starting to come around. 3. Having Bill Hall return [...]

We’re also getting pretty close to the day where Corey Hart could [...]

While there’s been no real posting lately, I can say that I’ve virtually finished my 2009 pitching preview and will post it first thing Monday morning. A few newsworthy things:
