MLB Thoughts

Some thoughts on this MLB season…

*Pleasant surprises: the entire NL West, the entire NL East save Washington, Atlanta (especially Hudson), Orange County, Milwaukee.

*Didn’t see that coming: Toronto’s DL, Houston and St. Louis treading water, the Mariners at .500, Yankee hitting taking a rest, Magglio.

*I’m not sold on: Tim Hudson, Brad Penny, Jason Marquis, Noah Lowry.

*I’m now convinced on: Josh Beckett, James Shields.

*I still think the NL Central isn’t over. Smart Brewer fans don’t either.

Hudson changed his offseason regimen this past winter, so he is better conditioned. His legs and core are stronger and he isn't opening up early like he has been the past couple of years. He may wear down later in the year, but we'll see. He was worth a last round pick.

As a brewers fan, the only team thats really concerning right now is the Cubs. The have as good or better run differential (runs scored vs. runs against for the laypeople reading this). I think our bullpen is better, and their offense is better. It may come down to whose starting pitching holds up.

No kidding about Magglio.
Penny will break down.
Here's another pitcher whose luck will change: Dan Haren.
