Milwaukee Brewers: Brewers Pitching Playoffs Improvement Translate Run?

Milwaukee Brewers enter 2011 with improved rotation, but it is enough to put them in the playoffs?

Milwaukee Brewers was one of the most powerful formations in baseball over the past five seasons. Led by outfielder Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder, first base, Brew Crew is split and blew up many of the best round of the League of submission.

However, there is a reason why they are only a postseason berth, which extend to: pitching. Brewers have never been able to find the right balance of eating prowess and fireballing pitcher ever to push in October.

In 2011, the Brewers can remedy this situation, grabbing Zack ace the Royals' Greinke and the Blue Jays righty Shaun Marcum. But is it enough at home for the coveted postseason berth, this yearning fan base?

The offense will still score runs behind boppers Braun, Fielder, Corey Hart, Casey McGehee, and even the second baseman Rickie Weeks. They have not always achieved for the average, but they have good speed on the basePath when they arrive on base.

Circulation is improved, even if they have problems. Greinke could be out until the end of April a cracked rib, and without him, the Brewers have a reliable fifth starter Yovani Gallardo to complete, Marcum, Randy Wolf and Chris Narveson. When slotted behind the Gallardo, it is difficult to find the rotation of the Brewers true anomaly ', although Narveson could lower ERA.

The real problems come from the bullpen, which is still a lot of the black hole than ever. Other than closer John Axford, this team does not have anything like a reliable bullpen arm, which means that even if their starters can keep the games when the bats are not blasting the bullpen could bring them back to these games .

Ultimately, I think the bullpen is the biggest problem the Brewers have to be overcome. If they can put together a sort of "pen, they could win the division. If things could get interesting really fast in Milwaukee.

Prediction: Milwaukee starters and the offense is more than enough to keep in the thick of the wild card race this season. His office says probably not deal with the Reds in the top of the Confederation of the Netherlands, but is expected to brew Crew to make a return trip to the playoffs this season as the Wild Card.
