4 years agoMilwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes (2-0) was charged with one unearned run on three hits over six innings in a win over Cleveland on Friday. He struck out seven and issued two walks. Burnes has excelled since stepping into the starting rotation. He's been especially good over his last two starts; six hits, zero earned runs and a 17:3 K:BB over 12 innings. The 25-year-old right-hander is throwing an elite fastball and the cutter has helped him neutralize lefty hitters. With that, Burnes seems to be blossoming into a legitimate frontline starter and will look to keep it going next weekend at home against the Cubs. He's been extremely effective as a starter -- roll him out with confidence.--James Stokke
