Johnny Estrada ambles into the Brewers' clubhouse on a recent afternoon in Milwaukee, takes a brief look around and, with a sigh and a shake of his head, considers right then and there to ... oh, maybe take a pair of needle-nosed pliers and pull out his eyebrows or something. Hair by single hair.

 

On a big-screen TV at one end of the clubhouse, a baseball game is being played. On another massive screen, maybe 20 feet from the first one, is the same game. On a smaller TV above the first one, that same stinking ballgame drones on. Throughout the room, a few Brewers' players, in a classic pregame scene repeated in clubhouses everywhere, are lounging on couches or casually sitting on chairs in front of their lockers.

 

They're all just watching. Just watching that stupid game. Seems like everywhere that the Brewers look these days, the Cubs are right there.

I just read the article, and it's complimentary enough. And Mike Silver (who just defected to Yahoo Sports, BTW) at least uses the term "contract commitments" when he mentions the 300 million number, which is more tolerable simply because it is correct.
