First team to hit 18 wins is who?

That's right.... the Milwaukee Brewers.

I know there are not a whole lot of baseball fans on the board, and I'm probably the only Brewers fan.

But wow... I can't remember the last time I could say, "the Brewers have the best record in baseball."

Lol, true about the Brewers, definately a good looking up and coming team. But past years when the Brew Crew has gotten off to hot starts, they have failed to make the playoffs. I like this Milwaukee team, and do hope to see them playing in the Post Season.

Brewers have a great young team. I have also always liked Weeks, more than Young. I still do. I also think the lack of any big egos on the team helps them out a lot. Not too many teams can convert there all-star closer into a set up man and he still plays good and doesn't complain at all.

Good luck to the Brewers and your right it has been a long time coming for them.

With their age and potential i can see these guys going far if they keep it up what with Fielder, Hall, and Hardy and Sheets anchoring the staff and Turnbow closing games out...they are very toug

I had the Brewers making the playoffs before the season started...no World Series this year, but their time is definitely coming. Great young squad...

Actually, Turnbow is the set up man, and Francisco Cordero is our closer. He actually is tied for the league lead in saves right now!

But yeah... a lot of young tallent who work well together. I just hope they can keep this group together for the next few years.
