What an odd week!!

So who would have thought that we would have lost two out of three to the Royals. Followed by a real drubbing to the A's. Followed by two wins in a row at the hands of the A's, actually outscoring them in the series 28-26!!! We've said it before but the offense has really turned it on in the past month or so. IF ONLY we could get a few quality starts here and there to help out the bullpen!!! As bad as things have seemed lately, this season is by no means lost. The Brewers have finally come down to earth with both their pitching and hitting (although it will be interesting to see this Gallardo pitch tonight, if anybody is going or is able to watch it on TV let us know what you think of him). I'm getting tired of hearing myself say it, but if we're within reach of the Central lead when Carp comes back, we could have a shot at making the playoffs.
I guess Buster Olney was on the radio today talking Buerhle to the Cards again. I would love to see it, just not sure if we have enough to get him in a trade nor do I think we'll be able to afford him in the off-season. It's been wide spread that he may be willing to accept LESS to come here. But will the front office shoot him an offer a lot lower then what he is even expecting (i.e. Suppan). Or..will they make a run at the big fish this year...Carlos Zambrano. Word last week was that he was joking with reports about a gift he received from Yadi saying "It's a gift from my future catcher." Personally this is a guy I hate as a Cub but would love as a Cardinal. It would be very interesting to see if Duncan could work with his attitude or not. Either way...he'll be asking way to much for our liking and Walt has made it known that he won't pay somebody more then Carp.
Anywho, the Royals are back in town and I would hope we would be able to take at least two of three from them. Come on boy's!!!!
