Cherington redeemed himself this year: this offense can score runs.

Nutting is going to stick with him because he knows what he has to do to keep getting paid. But this core ought to be in playoffs next year and I dont have the confidence that Ben is the guy to get us there. I'd like someone better.

I think Cherington is back next season.
I think his lack of urgency of fixing the bullpen should have cost him his job.

They probably have 90 wins at this point instead of 80 and are pushing for a division title.

No doubt he is back. Nutting isn't paying two GMs during a lockout.

Surely you mean pushing for a wildcard. The Brewers are going to win 100 games.
