See you're sitting 16 games out. What the heck are they eating in Milwaukee? Hope you make a run man.

Re: "Captain Hook" Returns -- Cincinnati Reds -- MLB:The Show 08 -- ps2

See you're sitting 16 games out. What the heck are they eating in Milwaukee? Hope you make a run man.

I don't know. Maybe they've got stronger hops in the beer that they are drinking from Miller Brewing. The Brew Crew better watch out, though. The Cubbies are gaining on them.

I doubt very much that this team will make a serious run to contend for the NLC or the NL wild card. There is still some work to be done plus payroll has to be slashed.

I've got several trades that I am hoping to get ok'd by the other teams. I will probably try to make 1 trade per week up to the trade deadline.

BTW, I had put Junior and Adam Dunn on the trade block before the 1st game against the Blue Jays to see if the AI will offer players for them and there have been no bites so far from the AI. Either the clubs aren't interested or the AI doesn't have the ability to offer trades. (That's something that needs to be added by SCEA for the current gens (ps2 & XBOX))
