Miller Park Views: A Comparison

Found November 02, 2012 on Brewers Bar:
PLAYERS: Doug Melvin,  Bob Uecker
TEAMS: Milwaukee Brewers
One can find reviews for stadiums on sites like Yelp and other resources on the Internet.  But those reviews are not always from actual sports fans.  StadiumJourney.com is a website that reviews stadiums all over the world, and does a pretty thorough and productive job doing it.  I assessed their review of Miller Park, home of the Brewers since 2001, and found that while I had a different take on a few things, their review of Miller Park was very accurate and helpful, especially for those who haven’t visited the park before.  The site does what they call a ‘FANFARE’ score, which is a composite of ratings for Food/Beverage, Atmosphere, Neighborhood, Fans, Access, Return on Investment and Extras.  Each category gets ranked from one to five stars, five being the zenith.  Overall, Miller Park gets a 3.9 rating on that site, which I would say is pretty solid and deserved.  Miller Park is awesome, but it does have its drawbacks.  Food & Beverage: Stadium Journey=5 stars   The Brewers...

Brewers begin bullpen overhaul

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  November 02, 2012
The Milwaukee Brewers' primary goal this winter will be rebuilding a bullpen that ranked last in the majors in three important categories: earned-run average (4.66), blown saves (29) and losses (33). There was some natural attrition with the free agency of setup man Francisco Rodriguez and long reliever Livan Hernandez. The Brewers had no intention of trying to resign either...

Risky Long Shots: Nyjer Morgan

Via 213 Miles From Shea  |  November 02, 2012
Nyjer Morgan elected for Free Agency today after declining a placement to Triple A (he was removed from the 40 man last year). If the price is right, and I’m talking minor league contract right, I think the Mets should take a risk on Nyjer Morgan.   The Mets OF ended up being a revolving door last year with players not grasping the opportunity of other players failing to play...
