Axford confident in his abilities, revamped pen

Via Fox Sports Wisconsin  |  January 28, 2013
MILWAUKEE -- In the game of baseball, struggles are inevitable. The game requires players to learn from their miscues, but also to have an ability to let go of the past and forget about it.

Attanasio confident in Brewers young pitchers

Via Fox Sports Wisconsin  |  January 29, 2013
MILWAUKEE -- Mark Attanasio learned a valuable lesson last season: Spending more money doesn't always result in more wins.

We've reached that point in the offseason where there's not much to write about. Well, the Brewers offseason moves up to this point (or lack thereof) haven't given us much fodder either, and it's not like we capitalized on writing something the few times a post was warranted... like that clutch Kelvim Escobar inking.
