There's a new Sheriff in Milwaukee, and he's making all kinds of good acquisitions. Our pitching staff will be much stronger this year with Grienke and Marcum. We have Rickie Weeks, Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder, Corey Hart, and Casey McGeehee at the plate.

This year will be different. This year will be epic. This year will be a good one for the people of Milwaukee and the State of Wisconsin. This will be OUR YEAR.

Fear us.

ROFL.

2. That's what you said last season.

I thought for a while it would be "epic". What happened?

5. Hey, at least we finished AHEAD of you guys last season!

NL Central W L Pct. GB Home Road
Cincinnati Reds 91 71 .562 — 49–32 42–39
St. Louis Cardinals 86 76 .531 5 52–29 34–47
Milwaukee Brewers 77 85 .475 14 40–41 37–44
Houston Astros 76 86 .469 15 42–39 34–47
Chicago Cubs 75 87 .463 16 35–46 40–41
Pittsburgh Pirates 57 105 .352 34 40–41 17–64

The Brewers were just mediocre last season. The Cubs, well, they sucked.

6. Not by much.

Y'all won a mere TWO games more than a team that "sucked". Statistically speaking, the Brewers sucked just about as bad as the Cubs.

7. When DOESN'T the Cubs suck?

[CatholicEdHead]

3. Well, count on at least 6 losses

Against the Twins.

4. Not if Greinke pitched like he did last year...

2009 may have been a fluke
