Your Milwaukee Apocalypse: Padre Power
It makes sense that the team that has stood up to the evil forces of the Brewers ended up being the Padres. I mean, who has a bigger in with the big guy upstairs than a Padre? The Brewers were swept in the weekend series by three straight great pitching performances turned in by Greg Maddux, Justin Germano, and Jake Peavy. Now there are three guys willing to stand up in the face of the oncoming Apocalypse that is the Brewer's playoff push. So who is our next line of defense? None other than the Atlanta Braves my friends, and hopes are high that they can take two of three form Milwaukee this week and give St. Lo...Houst...Chica...grief, to give however the heck wakes up in the Central the chance to catch up. Here is a look at the pitching probables for the series with the Braves, along with a completely non biased graphic signifying the Brewer's current lead.
Game #1: C. Capuano (5-3) - C. James (4-4)
Game #2: B. Sheets (4-3) - J. Smoltz (7-2)
Game #3: D. Bush (3-5) - T. Hudson (5-3)
