Saturday here's Dame Lillard you know we we kept fighting and that's a hard thing to do when you
when you struggling and you expect it to be winning and people talking about your team is it takes
a connected group to be able to bounce back and come out of that and you know get to where we've
gotten to we just have to understand that and also not reach where we've reached now and think
that our work is done you know we got ourselves back to where we want to be in a good position and
we got to continue to build on that the Bucks get ready for their next action coming up on Saturday
in that play in game the other game last night Oklahoma City 118 and Dallas 104 well Matt Arnold
was quiz yesterday he is the GM for the Brewers and he's been named Major League executive baseball
of the year baseball America made the announcement Tuesday Arnold won the same designation in October
from the sporting news and in November from Major League baseball he was credited with putting
together a roster that finished with a National League Central Division title and a record of 93
and 69 fourth best in all of baseball yeah it starts with Pat I think it starts with our ownership
group I mean it starts with our our Ricky Weeks all of our coaching staff Chris Hoke we just brought
back to a multi year deal all the coaches around I mean our players certainly I mean our front
office guys I'm surrounded by incredible people and really when you get these kind of awards it really
is a team award Matt Arnold at the baseball winter meetings he was asked about the Brewers pitching
staff for the coming season we're we're excited about having Freddie Peralta at the top of our
rotation we had guys like Tobias Meyer step up really happy with Aaron Savali at the end of
the last season guys like Ashby DL Hall etc that you know I think have a chance to be exciting
young superstars potentially in this game but really you know there there are a lot of different
options there I think we certainly open adding another starter as well with a win and a little help
from some other teams the Packers could clinch a playoff spot this weekend Green Bay travels to
Seattle to meet the NFC West leading Seahawks Sunday night the Seahawks are riding a four game winning
streak Green Bay will hope to capitalize on Seattle quarterback Geno Smith who has thrown 12
interceptions and fumbled seven times a win could mean another trip to the post season for the Packers
