Can the Brewers be a "good" team?

Mike Lucas asks the question of just how good the Brewers really are, and how good can they be?

The Brewers dropped another game to the Reds Tuesday night. Read about it here: "First the Brewers absorbed the loss of their best starting pitcher. Then they absorbed back-to-back losses to the last-place Reds. It’s not exactly been a banner start to the final full week before the July 31 Trade Deadline.

Brewers president of baseball operations David Stearns reiterated during the television broadcast of Tuesday’s 14-6 loss at Miller Park that he will let results in the days leading up to next week’s Deadline help determine how aggressively he adds to the team. He spoke like a man who wants to buy, but the Brewers were not doing their part down on the field."
