You can't predict baseball. Who would have thought we'd of turned to shit that badly. It was a good year, but now we're left with the sour taste of a failed "all in" strategy. Hopefully Doug Melvin doesn't offer Fielder a ridiculous contract, I wouldn't offer him anything more then a 5/75 deal.
Luckily Ryan Braun, who is a lot better then Prince Fielder, is a Brewer for life. He's already on the doorstep of the Brewer postseason hit record, and I don't think it will take him long to make that record his own. If we can keep Gallardo and Greinke long term we should a damn good rotation for a long time. The Brewers have four B+/B level starting pitchers in the system who will all be in the majors by sometime in 2013.
I loved this year, and I can't wait for next year. Congrats to the Cardinal fans, but I sure as fuck aren't cheering for you in the World Series. Surprisingly I haven't heard from my friends in St. Louis they probably assume I'm face down in a ditch on I-94.
