Oh ... hey there.
You caught me typing my message for the time machine. It's set to land on April 2, 2007 - one month ago - which just happened to be Brewers Opening Day.
Here is what I have so far.
Dear Bob,
You're never going to believe it but:
- The Brewers won 16 of their first 25 games and have a 3+ game lead.
- The crew ended April tied with Atlanta for the best record in the NL.
- Kevin Mench may be the most exciting player to grab a bat.
- Kevin Mench will have a triple that was fielded cleanly.
- Sheets is now our #5 starter ... behind Bush and Vargus.
- Turnbow is back.
- Jenkins had a career month.
- Milwaukee fans love the Cleveland Indians (or a bargain?)
- JJ Hardy looks like an ALL-STAR as the lead the club in homers (6).
Even the casual fan is excited about Milwaukee baseball and the national boys are starting to throw some props our way - when they're not busy slobbering over A-Rod (who is finally earning his salary)
Enjoy the great month and don't miss a minute of it. It's been a while since we looked like we belong on the field with LA, The Cardinals, et al.
Oh and the best part: That giant sucking sound coming up I-94 is the high-priced Cubs. Remarkably, Pinella's only blown his cork once.
And finally, one night someone will offer you extra spicy sauce on your burrito: just say no.
Regards,
Bob
