William Contreras is the best catcher in the league right now. He will be an all-star this season.

Theres something about a team whose best player is the catcher... like he's involved in everything on defense, and the best bat this season. Team feels special. No superstars, just a bunch of amazing ball players.

Altuve was swinging where he wishes his height was 😂

Before I give the Brewers some props, Justin Verlander, 👏 deserves major respect! I can remember him dominating in Detroit. He's been a beast for years and at 41 years old he's still a beast! Now the Brewers....
I've been extremely critical of them. Well with their front office and the cheap @ss owner, however I have to say this. I hated that they dumped Josh Hader, then Corbin Burnes, as well as quite a few of the other free agents that they had signed. But the young prospects have been absolutely incredible. Both with their offense and as shown at the 1:50 or so mark their defense and their arms. William Contreras has been on fire again both offensively and defensively. He's been gunning down runners left and right, and his .350 batting average has been incredible! Both home run power and great timely hitting. Doubles, singles, when needed Contreras has been a huge spark. The prospect they got for Corbin Burnes, J.Ortiz has been another great player. Bryce/Brice Turang another great young player. Right now this team has some really great rookies. Potential rookie of the year candidates easily. I still love Corbin Burnes, but I am beginning to feel less angry at his departure. The Pitcher we got in the Josh Hader deal has been pretty darn good as well. I was too critical of this team. I was wrong. This somewhat reminds me of when the Brewers had a really great farm system over a decade ago. Players like Prince Fielder, Ryan Braun, Johnathan Lucroy, JJ Hardy, etc. These young kids with Christian Yelich back from his injuries (hope and pray he stays healthy!), this could be the best offensive team we've had in a while. The pitching staff isn't as top notch as it was the last few years but they have been very good as well. I was one of those who said the Brewers were not going to be able to get out of the cellar of their division. Again I was WRONG! Now are they just as good as say the Dodgers? The Yankees? Well they have taken their lumps against these billion dollar teams, but they've also had some good shots as well. My fear is that with how many times players on this team get shuffled, signed then let go, etc that any chemistry they get will be erased after this season ends? This core unit is extremely talented! They have some great potential! I'm hoping that they can keep it intact.

Brewers ground Verlander down in the 5th. Good win for the Crew.
