The Milwaukee Brewers’ starting rotation has been absolutely stellar so far. The group owns only the 8th best ERA in the National League (a modest 3.85 mark), but they’ve pitched better than that, posting the 4th best FIP (3.43) and WAR (8.0), as well as… [More]

AAA – Nashville Sounds The Sounds have gone 8-4 through their first 12 games. The big force on offense has been 27 year old RF Brendan Katin, with 4 HR accounting for his .667 slugging percentage in 27 ABs. Angel Salome has only played in… [More]
