Counsell Celebrates Recent Accomplishments, Prepares to Start Every Day at Second Base

I'm willing to give Melvin and Co. a little bit of leash on not having a great backup second baseman on the roster. After all, you don't anticipate Weeks to miss games. But what I can't give them any leash on is still having Counsell on the roster to give Roenicke the thought of playing him in Weeks's absence. Why is Counsell still in the Majors?

I've never been a huge critic of Counsell for various reasons, and I admit he's the best defensive infielder on the team. But there's just no way to excuse how bad he is offensively. Further, I don't think any athlete that goes out of his way to make a political statement, as the pinko, unionist Counsell did this offseason, deserves anything but relentless criticism and hate.

Please Brewers, stop doing things wrong. I beg you. Please cut Counsell. Please.
