A sweep of Bud's team sure is sweet.
April is only the first chapter in the novel that is a major league baseball season. But don't you love it so far? The orphaned and abandoned Expos are the game's hottest team. The Twins, marked for extermination, again are championship contenders. Meanwhile, the Brewers, owned by the man who wants the Expos and Twins dead, have descended to levels of incompetence so complete as to warm a contrarian's heart.
Imagine a Montreal-Minneapolis World Series: Jose Vidro and Vladimir Guerrero against Brad Radke; the Hall of Famer Frank Robinson against baseball lifer Ron Gardenhire, now famous for saying after a 9-1 defeat in Tampa Bay, "It's not the dome.... We could've played in Russia and they'd have kicked our butts."
How delicious would that be?
We can only hope.
We can look at the standings, and we can read the public prints, and we can say, "Hmmm, yep, some teams sure do need gotten rid of. Like those last-place, manager-firing, bad-hit/no-field, can't-win-on-the-road, run-by-the-busy-daddy's-daughter Brewers."
A petty thought, that.
Vindictive even.
