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?

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.
