Can the month of May get any more dreadful? The Brewers are 4-16 this month with no series wins (although the team did split with Texas in the first week of May.) They have fallen so far, so fast that it's no longer a question of can they make the playoffs. The question now is can they make it back to .500?

We're are a little more than one-quarter of the way into the season and while there's plenty of games to play the Brewers may find themselves out of the running before too long. 43 games in, it's pretty clear that the Brewers have been plagued by both a lack of consistency and opportunity.

We like to say that the baseball season is still early until Mother's Day. So this road trip is a perfect time to size up what is wrong with the Brewers and what can be fixed.

Unquestionably the biggest source of frustration for Brewers fans thus far is Rickie Weeks. For a second year in a row Weeks is mired in a deep slump early in the season. Last year's slump could be attributed to his lingering ankle injury from 2011. But this year Weeks is healthy. So what is the issue?

In case you forgot here's a quick recap of the Brewers first month of the season: 2-8 start, followed by nine game winning streak, followed by .500 road trip, followed by two straight wins over Pittsburgh. I guess you could say the Brewers are trending upward as the month comes to a close. By beating the Pirates twice the Brewers surged in the tightly-knit NL Central standings and now find themselves just a half game out of first place.

The Packers entered day two of the NFL Draft with one pick in both the second and third rounds followed by five more picks on Saturday. They left day two with a lot more than that.

UCLA defensive end Datone Jones is the newest Packer and he should make an immediate impact along a defensive line that struggled late in the season.

We know this much about Packers general manger Ted Thompson: when it comes to the NFL Draft he is the ultimate wild card. Who knows what he's going to do? This leads to rampant speculation as to what the Packers will do with the 26th pick. So at the very least we can narrow it down to three possibilities, in order of least likely to most likely:

Week 1: Atlanta at New Orleans Without coach Sean Payton the Saints stumbled to an 0-4 start to open the 2012 season. Now Payton is back for a full season and the Saints are poised for a rebound but to do that they must beat the defending divisional champs.

If you missed the Brewers 5-4 win over the Cubs you missed one of the most bizarre plays you'll ever see in baseball. In the bottom of the eighth Jean Segura led off with a single then with Ryan Braun up Segura stole second. Braun subsequently walked.

If the Brewers want to get back to .500 sooner rather than later, they'll need guys like Blake Lalli to do what he did Wednesday night. Lalli, a minor league callup with 26 career at bats under his belt, delivered a game winning pinch hit RBI single in the 9th. It was yet another chapter in what is already a roller coaster 2013 season. We already know nothing is going to come easy for this Brewers team. That means guys like Lalli and Yuniesky Betancourt are going to have deliver a lot more that initially expected.

The NFL announced today that the 2013 schedule will be unveiled on Thursday. Greg Matzek & I decided that, for the the first time, we'll make our predictions as to what the Packers schedule will look like. I'll be honest, this is a big step forward from our usual Kickoff Thursday/Thanksgiving predictions, where we have a pretty good idea of who will play.

With the NFL Draft a little more than two weeks away it's time to start stacking up the draft board so here's my list of the top prospects. This doesn't necessarily represent what a mock draft would look like so there may be some disconnect between where a player is stacked on the board and where he may actually get picked. You may ask yourself, why 133? Well I'm shooting for symmetry as it will take 133 picks to get through the first four rounds so why stop at just 100?

The year is 1983, college basketball is peaking and March Madness had just begun taking off as the best sporting event in the country. CBS began broadcasting the tournament the year before and much like the tournament itself the network was still honing its style.

If Friday night was any indication Kyle Lohse will end up looking like a steal for the Brewers. In his first outing of the season Lohse struck out five of the first six batters he faced and kept Arizona off balance in six innings of work.
