I kind of like that every team plays every team every year.

And I don't. To me that was the mystery of the World Series. To see how the one leagues best did against the other leagues best. who may not have faced a batter for years during spring training or minor leagues. So say the Brewers play the White Sox near the end of the regular season and then play 3 weeks later in the World series. Where is the mystery as to how the teams compare. We already know.

The same thing happened to the NFL years ago. I think one year Denver and Dallas played the last week of the regular season and then met in the SB. There weren't as many rounds in the playoffs so it was like 3 weeks later.
If there is going to be any inter-league play it should be where everyone plays each other and balance the schedule as much as possible. It's a boon for the fans who now can attend games and see all of the teams.

Bad news for Mitchell. Hoping the best for him.
I guess there's two ways to look at it. If Frelick gets it going he'll get his chance and maybe perform as well as Mitchell was. Mitchell definitely added an ingredient to the team that right now it appears nobody can. This just might be that special season where the Brewers overcome it.
Fingers crossed for Mitchell to heal up well and make it back this season with surgery or without it. He was productive and part of that energy that this team has. Frelick hurt his thumb from what I understand or he would have been called up. Really excited for Frelick when he gets his chance.
The Brewers have some depth too. Taylor is on rehab so he comes back into the picture shortly. This team has more interchangeable parts than in the past.
Single , SB, and a single. All with 2 outs. The Brewers new MO.
Was hoping for a little more but, nice RBI single, Turang.
Can't believe CC brought in Wilson. Bush was the obvious choice.
I'm watching the game on the Red Sox broadcast and Rowdy is living rent free in their heads.
Blake gets his first career base hit and a standing ovation for him.
Milner with a nice 8th.
Williams with an almost clean 9th. Brewers win 5-4!!
That play by Anderson to get the out was clutch and he made it look easy.
The Brewers are 15-6 and only lead the Pirates by 1/2 game. The Pirates usually don't have 15 wins until June.
The only bad thing I can say about the Brewers, injuries to Woodruff, Mitchell, and Ashby are going to be really really tough to overcome over 162 games.
Ashby is replaceable but Woodruff and Mitchell are special. Let’s just hope at least Woodruff can come back mid-season. From everything I read about Mitchell, it seems doubtful we’ll see him again this year.
Also read that Frelick apparently dodged serious injury down in the minors. Definitely need that guy to get healthy and back on track. If Wiemer continues to struggle at the plate we may need to give Sal a shot at some point though he clearly isn’t ready yet either.
This seems like it might be the best team since 2018, but they need a bit more luck injury wise than they have had so far.
It would be great if Weimer started hitting before he loses confidence. But his defense alone makes him worth keeping in the lineup. We need Frelick to get it together quick because even if Mitchell does return it will be late in the season and it would take him awhile to get up to speed. Woodie is the key.
It doesn't look like Burnes will be around very long.
Burnes made it thru 5. Won't get the win but won't get the loss either.
Crew manufactures a run in the 7th. Walk to Wiemer, stolen base, sac bunt by Perkins and a wild pitch scores Wiemer.
Bush serving up lollipops.
The Brewers need to figure out what they are going to do with Bush. He throws 95 and has a plus curveball. But his fastball has no movement and his command is usually bad. Since being acquired he's pitched 30 innings, only giving up 21 hits, but 10 of those hits are HRs. I don't know if he has options left but Houser is due to return soon.
