Phoenix — When principal owner Mark Attanasio walked into the Milwaukee Brewers' clubhouse Thursday morning at Maryvale Baseball Park, he was transported mentally back to 2005.
"I had déjà vu back to my first year as owner because even though we had a number of veterans it was all new faces for me (then)," Attanasio said after his annual spring address to the team.
"It felt that way again."
Having turned over half the spots on the 40-man roster during the off-season as a massive rebuilding program cranked into high gear, the Brewers are starting over in many ways.
