June 2011 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche

16th June 2011

Now we won 11 games in a row, which means we opened a 12 game gap over the Reds who occupy the Wild Card spot 3.5 games over four teams. We now play four at Minute Maid Park. The Astros stand at .500 at the moment, but have a rather strong pitching group, while a fair share of their position players battle with the Mendoza line at the moment.
We have to make a roster move soon as Lorenzo Cain (.556, 0 HR, 3 RBI in 3 games) will come off the DL.

SS T. Plouffe (5 weeks)
