2021-04-20: Brewers (Burnes) at Padres (Paddack) [Brewers win, 6-0 -- Burnes reaches 40 strikeouts without issuing a walk to start the season, the new major league record for a starter]

[trwi7]

Jace in your face.

[Eye Black]

Imagine going to bed early and missing a Jace Peterson home run blast to dead center.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Jace just bought himself a couple months on the active roster.

[SeaBass]

Jace Peterson officially better than Daniel Robertson.

What a trash strike call on Tyrone.

What a trash strike call on Tyrone.

 

Ump has checked out strike two to Robertson was same out of zone. Seen Boxberger and Yardley both with outside strikes called in their favor. Hurry up he need his sleep.

[brewcrewdue80]

Ballgame series win on road vs the Padres. Shutout. Faith in the bullpen!

Burnes for Cy Young below 0.4ERA and 40ks to 0Walks.

Sweep tomorrow! Let's Gooooo

+22 run differential. 53 runs allowed, tied with the Giants for fewest* in the majors. Mets have allowed only 40 but have only played 12 games, they're allowing more runs per game however. Brewers/Giants 3.12, Mets 3.33 per game.

 

Also 10th in MLB in runs scored with 75, not too shabby for a "bad" offense.

This team is going places. Going to be a fun year.

[stalton]

4 games in and Burnes still has more RBIs than runs given up.

[clancyphile]

Dunno... he gave up four hits this time around, I think he's slipping.

I know, right. The number of hits he’s given up has doubled in each of his last two starts. Not a good trend.

 

This series may be a good example of “It’s not who you play, it’s when you play them”.

 

The Brewers lead with their two aces and miss both Darvish and Snell.

[Hopper]

Corbin Burnes starts have become appointment viewing. The guy's stuff is so filthy. I love Woodruff's bulldog mentality out there, but Burnes is probably the more talented pitcher. When was the last time the Brewers have had two horses like this at the top of the rotation?

 

Soon, people will start calling for one of them to be traded.

Got to stock the farm.

We are not used to having nice pitchers at the top.

Brewers fans don't know how to act when we do.

LOL ... this take is 100% spot on, Hopper.

[adambr2]

Actually there was a pretty big rumor/discussion in the offseason about Burnes being traded to the White Sox. Never went anywhere of course. As you might remember he was the guy the Orioles really wanted for Manny Machado in '18.

 

There are very few names in MLB that I would straight up trade Burnes for 1 to 1 for right now. Acuna comes to mind. Not many others.

[Eye Black]

I guess this what they mean when they say “well at least he’s consistent.”

Absolutely. Burnes, DeGrom and Tyler Glasnow are on my TV every time they start. Just incredibly nasty.
