I think the biggest problem the Brewers have, besides not controlling their own destiny, is that they have to play San Diego in a 4 game series. Very hard to sweep one of those so then you are looking at a Magic number of 2 if they lose just one, etc, etc.

bob- plain and simple - the brewers biggest problem is that bullpen-we should not have to beven talking about trying to win a 4 game series this weekend against the padres

Can't argue with that.
I guess being able to have this kind of conversation at all in late September is a nice change, but it still doesn't help that much

yes i agree it is good to at least be in the race instead of twiddling our thumbs like the last 15 years- but it gets frustrating. i can understand a pitcher or two stinking it upout there in the bullpen. buts its the whole bullpen-none of them can pitch- yost can't rely on nobody-not one single pitcher to be consistent

Cordero has lost a few games, but he has 44 saves on the year. Imagine the crew's pen without him

i know what your saying , like i said he's the only one you can trust for the most part. but yes with out him..........heaven forbid we go back a couple of years and would still have turnbow as our closer. wouldn't that just be unjust torture!!!!! that thought just gives me the creeps. i think when they put the camers on turnbow last night -you know he was thinking why am i such a head case with runners on and well only 4 more games as a brewer -hope someone wants me

The bullpen has been horrible other than Cordero, but I do agree it is September and the brewers are in the conversation. It is a nice change. Usually by July, I am counting the days to the Packers pre-season schedule.
Ned has mismanaged a lot of things this year, Turnblow has been god awful most of the time.

cordero has done his share to screw us a few times also- tho the only one i can say you can put some trust into. that being said ned did not always mismanage , they were the right decisions just not executed by a horrible bullpen. blame the the bullpen not yost on this meltdown
