| STRENGTHS / WEAKNESSES |
Strengths: Milwaukee has an excellent catcher in Ivan Rodriguez. Their infield is strongest up the middle. Graeme Speltz is a sensational outfielder. Hands down, the Milwaukee Brewers have the best rotation in baseball. Milwaukee has strong long relievers. Weaknesses: Although the Brewers like Jefferson as a third baseman and hope he can grow into his role, at present he is a weakspot in an otherwise strong lineup. Their outfield is getting older. They're looking to replace some of the older outfielders with a little youth. Since their relievers are getting older, the pen's performance is steadily declining. Milwaukee will go after one young reliever. Quite frankly, the Brewers don't have any true middle relievers or setup men, so one has to imagine that's high on their wishlist. |
