Analyzing the Milwaukee Brewers Off-Season

I-94’s Disappointment Bowl: Crickets Chirp Over Cubs & Brewers

By

WGN Radio is hyping hockey, basketball and even…BEARS football?  Attendance is down at both Wrigley and U.S. Cellular Fields. Milwaukee fans are apathetic about northbound traffic from Illinois and no one’s uttered the FIB acronym in weeks. Wow, the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs must both suck this season. Chicago: your offense is 13th in the league, you’ve scored 234 … [Read more...] about I-94’s Disappointment Bowl: Crickets Chirp Over Cubs & Brewers

By

Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark Attanasio was willing to can manager Ned Yost with 15 games left in the 2008 Wild Card race. Last August, he fired pitching coach Bill Castro, options the struggling JJ Hardy to Triple A, and showed Bill Hall the door. If Attanasio wants to keep a consistent message, he needs to make at least one of these three moves. … [Read more...] about Three moves to hassle the Hoff and shake up the Milwaukee Brewers
