Brewers Rock the House

Opening Day
Yesterday was opening day and the Milwaukee Brewers won 7-1.

Ben Sheets threw a two hit nine inning gem. Rickie Weeks got the first hit of the year and also scored the first run. Bill Hall collected the first RBI and HR of the season. He also had a web gem in center field robbing a sure hit in the gap on a diving catch.

Some thoughts about the Brewers.
1. I think they will win 87 games this year
2. I think 3H Hall, Hardy, and Hart are going to have solid production this year.
3. Estrada is going to open eyes here in MKE. Who new a catcher could swing a bat. He is going to be a solid addition to a lineup that at time last year struggled to hit in key situations.
4. Sheets looks healthy and throwing well.
5. Weeks' defense has improved
6. Fielder's deserves more credit on his defense. He made a couple nice plays yesterday.
7. Jenkins walk up to the plate music is Crazy Bitch by Buchcherry. Interesting only because the lyrics must be censored out and only the music is played.
8. Jenkins could have a good year if he only faces righties.

That is it for now. Go Brewers.
