Game 30- L Houston 16-13

Listless. That is the best way I can describe the Brewers play lately. Rickie Weeks leadoff HR had all the spark of an Estelle Getty strip tease. I really think this team is so novice that they think losing Gallardo for the season is the end of any hope as they know it. Parra didn't pitch great, but once again, that lineup HAS to do better than 2 runs. Numerous scoring chances wasted. As I mentioned, the Weeks HR, which apparently almost took out the train at Minute Maid, should have been an offensive wakeup, but no. However, the Brandon Backe HR was apparently a wake up for the 'Stros. Good for Cecil Cooper I say. Yo or no Yo, Melvin and Attanasio need to start asking for better results. This team is uninspired and has never put together a consistent season where they met expectations. In 2005 they sort of overachieved, but since then, they have had a team good enough to win the division... and nothing. Am I pissed, hell yes! Offensively the Brewers are about as impressive as a "mountain" in Wisconsin. Pick it up Crew, if you care about Yost's job, pick it up.
