Those records in the headline do a pretty good job of summarize the state of the NL West and Central this year. If the Brewers were in the West, we'd be in first place by 7.5 games. (The Cubs, if suddenly relocated, would be up by 12!)
The matchup tonight is between a pair of great young pitchers: Manny Parra for us, Chad Billingsley for them. It might be a good day for Cameron to take a rest--in his 18 PAs against Billingsley, he has an OPS of .170. OPS.
Game time is 9:40 CT -- 10:40 for me on the east coast, which might mean I'll be in bed *before* the game starts. Here's the BR Game Preview.
Go Brewers!
