I think the trade is great. I'm pumped! I agree that the Cubs are looking good - and may possibly be even tougher now with the addition of Harden. I do think that we are better than the Cards and, with the resurgence of JJ and hopefully improved offensive play from Hall and Weeks, we will be a formidable opponent for the Cubs. Right now I am in Lithuania - teaching English as a Foreign Language during the month of July. A few of the other teachers here are from the Milwaukee area. It is great to finally be able to talk Brewer baseball to someone face-to-face - and in Lithuania of all places. Interestingly, the Lithuanian National Team (Basketball) is practicing daily in the gym on campus. I've heard that they have a couple NBA guys on their team. I plan on sneaking in during an afternoon and checking out the practice (IF the gym is open).
Went to the Brewer's game on Sunday. It was a beautiful day at the ballpark. What do you think of the CC Sab. trade? I hope we can hold on enough to sneak into the wild card. Unfortunately the Cubs are looking pretty tough this year.
Thanks for the info! I'm actually going to a game this Saturday. For once it looks like the NL Central may be a very strong division. Hopefully the Crew can make it to the playoffs with all that talent.
