25 on the big league club.  Triple a memphis has a full squad.  Double A springfield is full.  Single A and rookie leagues in palmbeach and Johnson City.  And an entire nation of cardinal fans.  And the cubs suck too.  Their fans are rude, loud mouthed, whiny, cry-baby,old style drinkin, hoosiers that are as big a losers as the cub organization. 98 years of sucking it up, good job cubs, thanks for Lou Brock.

Possibly...you never know. But I would guess this is not their year. There are teams that are built to win regular season games and then there are ones more geared to win in the playoffs. For example, the Memphis teams in the past have all been very good and deep and ended up with good reg season records, yet they get blown out in playoff games.....while a team like the Lakers or Cavs may not end up with the best records....but noone really wants to face those teams in a 7 game series. Why? Kobe and Lebron. To win championships you need superstars. Look what Wade did for the Heat last year, despite playing the "better" and deeper team with the better record. The thing is, having a superstar go off and "stealing" a game here and there can shift an entire series.\n\nUtah looks very solid right now. They have one of the best frontcourts in AK, Boozer, and Okur and Deron is playing really well. And I think Brewer was a steal in the draft and will pay off down the line. But still, there is a very fine line, but distinct one between a very good team and a great team.

As a member of Red Sox Nation, I am fed up with the middle relief.  The only ones that can be trusted now are Delcarmen and Timlin.  Taveras, Foulke, Seanez, and Riske are just plain bad.  Bring up Hansen.  Trade for some middle relief help from a bad team.  Something NEEDS to be done.

While im not going to spend the time to figure this one out i will say that i am a Milwaukee Brewer fan and that at almost every brewers game i watch or attend i am able to identify at least one or two former brewer players. although id also assume this also true with more or less all small market teams such as Kansas city or Pittsburgh.

Apparently no one, they had one of the top three most disappointing off-seasons of any MLB team. I will be surprised to see them contend this year or, for that matter, see Clemens come back -- why should he? The team basically sat on their thumbs.

Not yet.  The problem is that there really is nobody to put up good competition in the Central this year.  I thought it was going to be pretty tough this year with the Astros and the Cubs' lineups, then Cincinnati and Milwaukee started playing well too.  But the Cards are on a 7 game losing streak and are still in first place by 1.5 games.  They have a tough game tonight, but I think they'll pull this one out, then they have one more against the Indians, a day off, then 3 game sets against Kansas City and Atlanta before closing the first half with a 4 game series against the Astros.  They're still looking at 50+ wins in the first half, with 76 to go in the second half.

Because their pitching rotation is young an inexperienced.  They've scored at least 5 runs in 4 of their 6 games - it's simply that the pitching staff has been unable to stop opposing teams from doing better.  As the season progresses and the rookie starters get more comfortable in the majors, their records will improve.

Keep Duke or trade or pick up Chris  Capuano of  the brewers \nChris Capuano struck out a career-high 12 to help the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Cleveland Indians 6-4 Friday night. Capuano (7-4) allowed six hits in seven strong innings. Capuano, who is third in the NL with 93 strikeouts, has become the anchor of the Brewers' staff. With Ben Sheets, Tomo Ohka and Rick Helling all serving time on the disabled list, Capuano has turned in 14 quality starts in 15 outings.

I agree in part but they will never win until they get rid of Wood and Prior.  The Cubs can't afford to keep hoping that these two will come around.  Why they re-signed Wood I'll never know.  You're right, they need pitching or it will be just another long hot summer at Wrigley.

I am...have been all my life.  They are playing really bad right now without Pujols.  It's kind of scary actually.  You don't know what you got until it's gone.  I don't know what happened.  They got people that can hit and were hitting with Pujols in the lineup, but now that he is out they can't hit anything...and the pitching isn't going to well either.  I still think they can reach the pennant but at this point, I don't think they can without a healthy AP.

To tell you the truth, they need a lot of help so it is not likely that they will be in the near term. But on the plus side for them, they have assembled a  very good young pitching staff, which is a must for any team that wants to contend on a tight budget to have (Think of the A's when they had the big 3 of Mulder, Hudson, and Zito). They need to make better decisions on player evaluations, but I think that they do have a shot...

They have lost 10 in a row--have been swept in their last 3 series--I am not sure they are capable of winning another game--however they are playing Tampa Bay this weekend, so hopefully they can win at least one of those games!!!!

I'd say for now the Brewers got the best of us in that trade, but don't even try and tell me that Vargas is better than Davis, that's a load of crap.  If these young guys turn out to be as good as we expected the Brew crew could be kicking themselves pretty soon.

I wouldn't worry too much. It may seem bleak right now, but as JenJen said the winter meetings start on Monday.\nThat is usally when all the big deals get made during the off season.\n\nI'm not sure how your farm system is stacked up, but every year The Twins always find ways to win.\n\nWithout Liraino & Radke your pitching may not be as good, you still have Santana (who will  belights out again).\n\nChin-up mate!
