Browse more photos » Earlier this week, ACTA Sports sent me a preview of the hitter projections from 2010's Bill James Handbook . Obviously, it's still really early, but I found some of the projections interesting, so I thought I'd pass them along to you. Let's start with your likely leadoff hitter for...

Admittedly, I'm a fan of offering our Type A free agents arbitration. If they don't accept, you get the draft picks; if they do accept...well, you're getting a Type A free agent, so someone who's presumably pretty good. Yes, you have to pay him, but there are worse things than paying for a proven good player. (After all, a lot of good players rule out playing in Milwaukee out of hand, probably because...

There are plenty of great Craig Counsell stories out there, but this one is the best. If you didn't have a ton of love and respect for Craiggers before, you should now. Counsell a class act By Tom Haudricourt of the Journal Sentinel Oct. 16, 2009 My boss, Garry D. Howard, was kind enough to share this e-mail with me that former Marquette basketball coach Rick Majerus, now at St. Louis University, sent...

Well, that's all she wrote. The 2009 season is over for the Brewers. Time to kick back and watch the other teams in the playoffs... unless, of course, Ghost Hunters is on. Follow the jumps for pictures and McAwesome! Carlos Villanueva got his only win of the season after starting Saturday. Fortunately (or unfortunately), sometime before Sunday's game, he shaved off the 'stache. Alcides Escobar tried...

The Brewers scored 12 unanswered runs in 3 innings last night, including four on wild pitches, to come back from a 6-0 deficit to beat the Cardinals 12-6. Ryan Braun got hits 198 and 199, as well as steal 19, leaving him just shy of a few landmarks. Braun scored the go-ahead run on a wild pitch that didn't get too far away from Jadier Molina. Braun was dancing a bit at third, but despite BA's claims...

Boxscore Late run surge gives Crew improbable victory The fates of the two starting pitchers showed how bizarrely this game turned around. Milwaukee's Braden Looper exited after six innings, trailing, 6-1, yet became the Brewers' first 14-game winner since Cal Eldred - a pregame visitor - in 1993. St. Louis' Adam Wainwright departed in the seventh inning with that same 6-1 margin yet was denied becoming...
