If there was one bright spot in this sound beatdown, it's that perhaps now, the Brewers can deffinitively say Turnbow is shot. 6 runs in 2/3 of mop up duty?! It's time for the Crew and Turnbow to part ways and use that roster spot for someone mildly effective. Yes, he wasn't the only pitcher that got rocked, but I can't deny now that he just isn't reliable and will probably never regain his '06 form.

This is one of those games where Suppan shouldn't feel to down about. I think all the pitchers deserve a mulligan after the way they have pitched. Yes the Cubs hung 8 earned over 3 1/3, but the offense has been letting this whole pitching staff down. Maybe the hitters were reminded that getting 6 runs in the first can go a long way towards getting even a half assed pitcher like Dempster a win.
