The Brewers Way...

Post by DickyBennett »

The Brewers' biggest strength is self-awareness.
They know what they do best and never stray from it.
What they do now is pitch well (3.34 starters' ERA, second lowest in the majors),
play great defense (23 outs above average, second most in baseball),
run the bases better than any other team (12 base running outs above average)
and do the little things right offensively (take walks, put the ball in play, advance runners).

The Brewers have won 30 of 43 games since the start of June, and that is no accident.

Didn't this used to be the Cardinals Way?

Young players surrounded by good coaching.

A dude named Whitey Herzog managed this way to great success.

Pat Murphy reminds me of Whitey in the way he manages.

The Cardinal Way and Devil Magic has been usurped by the Brewers.

You make a great point for those living in the past. Which organization is making the better decisions in the present and future looks brighter?

I used to love hearing other teams whine about our “Pixie dust”. Brewers stole it.

The current states of these two organizations indicate otherwise, but I do hope you’re right!

They trade away assets 1 1/2 -2 years before FA for max return and don’t miss on the prospects they get back. Cardinals should have done that so many times including Helsley last season. They wait too long.

The Cubbies stole their manager so they went out and got a better one.

The Brewers win formula is not to be mocked.

They have owned the division the past 6-7 years.
