“We had guys that just didn’t perform last year offensively. It was puzzling. It was out of the norm. You’re hoping, you’re planning on them getting back to norm, and that’s going to create a pretty big improvement in our offense. That’s a big part of this.”
These are the words of Craig Counsell, the optimistic skipper of the Milwaukee Brewers who’s entering his seventh season at the helm of the ballclub.
