Arizona at Milwaukee

Milwaukee has won four of five while Arizona has dropped three of four. We were on the BNrewers on Tuesday when they got the win. We laid off them last night and they lost. Today we jump back on them as they send top prospect Yovani Gallardo to the mound, in place of the injured Ben Sheets. In six games, he's notched a 2.83 ERA. Not a lot of action, with just 29 innings, but he's perfomed admirably when given the chance. He's opposed by Livan Hernandez who has been average at best. He's got a 5.16 road ERA and 2-4 record. Neither of these two teams has much offense right now but Milwaukee has the better bats. Arizona is averaging just 3.7 per game over their last seven and on the season they get only 3.9 per game on the road. Milwaukee averaged 5.0 per game at home. They also have a killer bullpen (3.16 home ERA). Even after yesterday's loss, the Brewers are 18-3 at home this season vs. NL teams who bat .255 or worse (Arizona hits .248). They are also 14-2 this season at home after having won 4 of their last 5 games.
