If you remember, I told you back on the 8th that the Brewers weren’t as good as their record (Milwaukee Brewers—Best Record, Not Best Team) and I showed you why. I also mentioned that I expected them to slide—and they did.

Keen baseball bettors have been able to main some nice coin on betting against the Brewers of late. The Brewers lost their three-game series against the Mets. They lost their four-game series against the Phillies. They lost their three-game series against the Twins. And they’ve split their three-game series against the Dodgers so far and they get to face Brad Penny tonight.

The media has been all over Jason Giambi today. Once again he’s front and center in a steroids fiasco. The Daily News reported that Giambi failed his amphetamines test, which was given at some point over the past year.

The news is muddy at best. Perhaps the biggest indicator was that Giambi met lawyers today. Last Friday Giambi was quoted as saying:

“I was wrong for doing that stuff. We made a mistake,” Giambi said.
