A little home cooking seems to be helping Jesus. @ homers tonight, a 3 run shot in the 1st and a solo homer in the 3rd. Crew up 5-0.

Who thought Davies woud be our best starter ?? Nice to see him pitching well again !!
Thought Jackson and Hart looked promising in their limited appearances.
Jackson and Hart looking better than ex Brewer Wilson! Jeffress reclamation is a must. Wondering when Burnes comes back as a reliever.
Nice perfromance by Chacin last night. And Junior was really really good in the 7th and 8th. Hader grooves one and it goes out but he got the out that matteres the most. Hope Jesus stays hot too. He can carry the team when he is on.
Random strike zone in the bottom of the fourth
Good grief- the ump limits what should have been a monster inning and Burns gives it all back...
What the hell is going on??? My cub fan friend just wrote to me and said the cubs won again.
Corbin Burnes looked like a future all-star in the playoffs last year. As a 23 year old rookie, he pitched 9 innings, had an ERA of 2.00, struck out 11, walked one, and gave up 0 HRs.
In 5 games this year, his ERA is now 10.98 and he's given up 11 HRs in 19 innings. He has probably been the worst pitcher in baseball the first month of the season.
I haven't watched the games enough to know. Is his velocity down? He hasn't walked an inordinate amount of guys, so it's less likely location. Can Grandal just not work with him? Is he hurt?
Didn't see Burnes entire performance last night but his velocity was in the mid 90's so I don't think that's the problem. The inning I watched he walked, hit-by-pitch, hit, walk, hit.......He's around an 11 ERA . Brutal
Peralta got lit up today on his return from the DL ...6 runs in 4.0 innings. Uggh
Could be a long season with this pitching staff.
Burns is relying more on the fastball in 2019 compared to 2018. 2/3 of his pitches are now fastballs.
His slider is flatter than my kitchen table and hitters are looking for it. he's throwing fastballs because nothing else is there.
Brewers staff is a mess right now
