Well, so far things are looking much as I predicted. The Brewers pitching staff is doing great with the bullpen much improved over 1966 (new additions Miguel Solis and David Brown have been particularly impressive) and the defense has been exceptional. As always, we lead the league in stolen bases. A bit surprisingly we also are in the top half in HR's and have a better team batting average than most. Trick has been turning that into runs scored. Though, admittedly, just a few days prior we were dead last in runs scored, so there has been some recent improvement. Early in the season, of course. But the trends thus far are what I expected.
