If anyone still has him on their team (I did): Aug 15 According to the Brewers telecast, manager Ned Yost is giving Capuano one more start to try and turn things around and prove he belongs in the starting rotation. Recommendation: Yost is going on what he called a "hunch," which is about the only possible explanation for allowing Capuano to take the hill again for a team in a pennant race. The lefty hasn't won since May 5, and the Brewers have lost his last 16 starts.

Yeah, well I went on a hunch and finally started him this week, and payed the price!! He was a free agent, so I took a flier on him. This was the only time I played, and I have since dropped him. The Brewers have lost his last 15 starts!! That's insane!!

Some how I have had him on my team since the start of the season and never really noticed how bad he really has been. Finally dropped him yesterday.

His number of Ks really good though, awful offense, defense and bullpen let him down.

I can't believe he's been this bad. I remember watching him the past few seasons and thinking he was above average at the very least.

for his last 3 or 4 outings, he left the game with the lead, and ended with a L each time, all the runners he left scored.

Really depends on how well he does Sunday versus Cincy. He might get pulled from the rotation if he doesn't produce a quality start.
