Right now the Brewers are 64-60, third place in the division and 8 games behind the Cubs, and 4 games behind the Phillies for the Wild Card. Their .265 batting average is 3rd in the NL, and their 4.02 ERA is 4th in the NL.

Pitching-wise they are being led by Sheets and Suppan. Sheets is 16-6 with a 3.14 ERA, 19 walks, and 185 strikeouts. I would say he is the second best pitcher in the NL behind Randy Johnson right now. Suppan seems to be suffering from a little bit of bad luck, as he is only 9-11 with a 3.23 ERA, 50 walks, and 115 strikeouts. They traded Dave Bush early in the year, but traded for Jake Westbrook to replace him.

As for the lineup, Bill Hall is the leading hitter. He's hitting .273 with 30 doubles, 1 triple, and 30 home runs, and 93 RBIs.

Their farm system is middle of the pack right now, ranked 14th. Their top prospect is their second round pick from this year's draft, center fielder Drew Stubbs. He's moved up quickly, already in AAA. He's hitting .353 there in his first 5 games. I wouldn't be surprised to see him compete for a major league roster spot next season.

Anything else you wanna know, just ask.

Interesting In my game I might trade Suppan away. No idea why he has such a big contract ...

Id also be interested in your Blown Saves Stats at the KC Royals ...
