Welcome. My name is Dylan Bolling and I’ll be covering the Milwaukee Brewers for the Baseball Historians network of baseball websites. I really think when you combine a weak NL Central with a solid Brewers team, that this might be the season for Milwaukee fans. Not only do I think the Brewers will have their first winning season since 1992, but I also think the Brewers will win the NL Central and make the playoffs for the first time since, gulp, 1982. And I’ll be there to hopefully provide you every last detail on their way to that playoff spot.
My favorite player on the Brewers is Prince Fielder. I think he’s the slugger that the Brewers can build around and, along with Bill Hall, as he goes, so does the offense.
In addition to monitoring the present day Brewers, I’ll also be taking a look at the team’s past. I’ll be starting with a season by season retrospective of probably the greatest Brewer ever to lace up a pair of spikes, and that’s Robin Yount. He played in a Brewers uniform for 20 years and while you can definitely make a case for Paul Molitor, he spent a lot of his better seasons playing for a different team.
So I hope you make The Brewer Chronicles a regular stop if you’re a Brewer fan. I know there’s some quality Brewer blogs out there (which you can check out in my Brewers site section) and I hope I can live up to the path they’ve paved.
