MLB Previews: Milwaukee Brewers

Lineup:
1. SS Alcides Escobar
2. 2B Rickie Weeks
3. LF Ryan Braun
4. 1B Prince Fielder
5. 3B Casey McGehee
6. RF Corey Hart
7. CF Carlos Gomez
8. C Gregg Zaun

Braun and Fielder add to a scary middle of the line up, but the rest of the line up is so so. Injuries are the biggest concern with this team and there are questions on whether Corey Hart and Richie Weeks can get it together and whether youngster Casey McGehee can grow off of last years production. Carlos Gomez will be interesting to watch because he was absolutely useless for the Twins last year, but maybe he can catch some NL fever. Gregg Zaun makes me want to throw up.

Rotation:
1. LHP Randy Wolf
2. RHP Yovani Gallardo
3. LHP Doug Davis
4. RHP Jeff Suppan
5. LHP Manny Parra

Closer
RHP Trevor Hoffman

Yovanni Gallardo and Trever Hoffman are really the only things worth mentioning. I have zero faith in Randy Wolfe, and Davis, Suppan, and Parra makes me cringe. I hate this rotation with all my heart, and even though the addition of Wolf "improved" it, I still hate it.

Outlook:
The Brewers have a decent offense, but I can't get over that pitching staff. They are all terrible and this team will hover around .500, if that.

2010 record: 75-87
