After a 7-18 start, the Milwaukee Brewers decided to part ways with Manager Ron Roenicke and bring in Craig Counsell to coach up the squad. Despite having no prior coaching experience, Counsell is sure to use his vast knowledge that he gathered up from his 16-year big league career. "If these little dweebs think this season is a lost one, then I'll be sure to kick those pansies to the curb. It's time to go to work you sissies," Counsell was quoted as saying at his introductory press conference.
The Brew Crew had no sense of moxie in them during the first month of the season, and Counsell is sure to change that during his tenure. First basemen Adam Lind was especially excited when asked about the move, "Being able to learn from a future Hall of Famer on a daily basis is going to be pretty neat. I just hope I don't get too starstruck out there in the field while I glance over at our dugout." VegasInsider.com listed the Milwaukee Brewers at 250/1 odds to win the 2015 World Series at the beginning of the season. After the hiring of Counsell, they were moved to 2/1 odds to win it all with 5/1 odds of finishing the rest of the season undefeated.
