The Rockies are to be the visitors on the 5th April.
The Crew also play the Cubs in their home opener 7 days later.

Not much surprise here, it was probably between him and Bob Melvin as to which manager got fired 1st.

Al is reporting that Harden will be going onto the DL when Zambrano comes back. I suppose it was only a matter of time before Harden made his annual journey to the DL.

So the Cubs decide that having a guy that can jump a car is not actually helping the baseball team so instead trade him for a guy on the DL.

Assuming that Hoffman opens the season the DL it looks like Macha has indicated the Villanueva is the preferred option to close.

Looks like we will need to have somebody else close games to begin the season.

No surprise here, Gange is going to try to rehab in private rather than in the Brewers minor league system, saving the Crew some cash

At the bottom of this article it gives a list of nationally televised games that the Brewers will play in.
I cant remember the last time that the crew were scheduled to appear on Sunday night baseball in the 1st half of the season, I assume that they had a game the 1st year Milller Park opened but since then I can't remember any.
It does mean that I will be able to see them live on TV here in Scotland since that is one of the 2 games that we get each week live.

I am not suprised although from a Brewers point of view one year of Sheets at around $15 million would of been pretty good.

In terms of deal very similar to Suppan's
