Great series against the Cubbies for the Crew, who are now 14-11. Taking 2 of 3 was great, especially the way they took the two wins, by beating the snot out of the Cubs 16-2 and 9-0. The offense that we hoped would come has seemingly arrived. Here's how it looks so far, about 15% of the way into the season:
- .354 OBP (4th in the NL, 8th overall)
- 133 runs scored (3rd in the NL, 9th overall)
- 38 HRs (1st in the NL, 2nd overall)
- .475 SLG (2nd in the NL, 5th overall)
Everyone is contributing and is making this lineup one of the more dangerous ones. Solid numbers abound. The pitching is also doing well:
- 4.30 ERA (5th in the NL, 9th overall; even though that's a bit high)
- 1.28 WHIP (3rd in the NL, 6th overall)
So, this season is looking good so far, and I see a nice May in store for the Brewers, barring any major injuries. I'm going with an 17-11 prediction for May, which would put them at 31-22. I think any Brewer fan would be happy with that result.
