‘This is fun, baseball is fun goddammit!’- Me trying to get excited to watch the Brewers over the course of the past three weeks.
Honestly though, this team is TOUGH to watch right now. World Series caliber starting pitching getting wasted night after night after night. This Brandon Woodruff pic says it all:
Woodruff and Burnes deserve better than this team right now. Woodruff’s ERA is 1.68 and he’s getting 1.58 run support behind him. After last night, the Brewers are 2-5 in Corbin Burnes starts. You know, Corbin Burnes? The guy doing things that haven’t been done since shortly after the Civil War? That guy? Yeah. They can barely win a game he pitches. Freddy Peralta has gotten more run support than most, but even he’s been robbed of a few wins while spinning gems on the mound.

PHOENIX (AP) â Cody Poteet won his major league debut, Jesús Aguilar homered for a third straight game and the Miami Marlins beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-2 on Wednesday night.
The 26-year-old Poteet (1-0) gave up a run in the first inning and a solo homer in the fifth but was otherwise solid. He lasted five innings and the right-hander allowed just four hits, struck out six and didn’t walk anyone.
Aguilar pushed the Marlins to a 2-0 lead in the first when he turned on Matt Peacock’s 93 mph fastball and launched the ball down the left-field line. It clanged off the foul pole about two-thirds of the way up.
