Brewers - can they catch up?

Well, now that the Cubs actually started losing a bit, the Crew has now lost the series against the Twins. However, they are within striking distance, and 6 weeks ago, it didn't look this hopeful. Who would have guessed the Central would be the toughest division in the NL? I think there's a chance that even if the Crew can't catch the Cubs (and I think they can) that the wildcard is certainly within reach.

I haven't heard much talk about Cameron. I think he's ok defensively (had a great catch against the Twins over the weekend) but he's certainly not getting on base enough to warrant all the free agent hype. I'd rather have Gwynn in there - he'd get on base more and be peskier on the bases. Granted, we'd lost power, but there is more than enough power on this team, what we need is base runners.

How long is Rickie Weeks going to be the starting second baseman? Too bad they didn't resign Cirillo - I'd much rather see his .300 average in the lineup than Weeks' .220. Problem is, I haven't heard anything about any good 2nd base prospects coming up.

Well, let's hope the Cubs get swept tonight by the Whitesox. Don Shankman would be happy with that too! Are you still out there Don?
