Last Place? --> Welcome to Campaign HQ!!!

By: Big Rygg

Ladies and gentlemen, you've happened upon a new place today when coming to the normal Brewer Nation blog. As it is an election year, we here at the Brewer Nation have taken it upon ourselves to have some campaign paraphenalia put together about an upcoming election.

Welcome to Campaign Headquarters!!

It's a little crude, but it was whipped together in about...20 minutes or so by a buddy of mine at the office, but here it is: The Official Campaign Poster for 2008 that we should all get behind.

Feel free, nay...encouraged, to post this image all over the 'net in attempt to garner support for the man that ought to have a job in the big leagues right now. The best job available is one that he's held with the core players currently on the roster, and what's more is that he's won championships with the core players currently on the roster.

The Frank Kremblas for Manager Campaign has officially begun!

This team is underperforming; this much we know is true. South Side Rob has laid it out both in print and over the airwaves that while the talent on the Milwaukee Brewers has increased from last year, our play has not only failed to improve along with it (in all areas other than defensively) but I would go so far as to say that it has regressed. South Side Rob has pointed out the crystal clear fact that the only true constant on this team has been the mediocrity atop the managerial/coaching flow chart.

In short, if we've got better players in place of the ones that left and the returning players have another chunk of experience under their belts, the lack of production and near regression has to be due to lack of proper direction.

Baseball teams make adjustments from game to game, series to series, month to month over the course of a season. They learn how to pitch another team's lineup and how to best try to hit another team's pitching staff, Baseball players make adjustments from game to game, inning to inning, at-bat to at-bat as well. These tweaks and changes are guided by the men observing from the dugout (and possibly the coaching boxes) during the course of a game.

Well, my friends and loyal readers, the rest of the league has adjusted to the Milwaukee Brewers' style of play and we need to adjust back to find an edge again.

We are done with believing that Ned Yost is capable of spearheading that effort. There may be several men that are capable (Dale Sveum probably not among them), but we feel that one man is the right man for the job:

Frank Kremblas!

Casting your vote for Kremblas today can save 10s of games this year and in the future!

Representing all of the "electoral votes" for all Brew Crew fans here in Florida.....we proudly nominate Frank Kremblas as the new Manager of our Milwaukee Brewers!!!!!

I'm in and we know that, but the feasibility of it bothers me. Yost is Melvin's guy and Melvin is Attanasio's guy so he'll listen to whatever Doug has to say.

Kremblas should have been the bench coach in the first place and if they don't reward him, I would not doubt he finds a job elsewhere next season. I like Simmons a lot, but I felt Kremblas did more than enough to earn that spot by prepping nearly every single guy on the squad. Yost is done. Even if the Brewers were winning the fans wouldn't like him, so perhaps this is one instance in which the owner should cater to his fans. If Simmons became the coach, fans would flock and cheer.
