Rickie Weeks Could This Be His Last Year

The Milwaukee Brewers are working on a contract extension with Rickie Weeks, but it has been a slow process so far. Weeks is a vital part of what the Brewers want to get accomplished. Rickie Weeks knows that he has a lot of bargaining power right now. He had a banner season and knows if the Brewers will not give him what he want someone else will. This is just how the baseball market is and the Brewers need to realize this.

Weeks does have some shortcomings as a player though. He has a high strikeout ratio and does have a high amount of errors as well. Even with that said the Milwaukee Brewers still need to add Weeks long-term if they hope of keeping the nucleus of this team together. Weeks is a great lead-off hitter and gets the offense going quickly.It will be interesting to see if the Brewers give him the money or decide to go in a different direction.
