Blue Jays (Corbin) vs Brewers (Sproat): 4/16/26, 12:40pm

[Frisbee Slider]

36-year old left-hander Patrick Corbin makes the start for Toronto. Corbin was signed on April 3 and is not expected to keep a rotation spot for long. Corbin's first start of the season was April 10 against Minnesota allowing four runs over 4 IP. Patrick makes his 14th career start against Milwaukee today. source

Brandon Sproat deserves credit for lowering his ERA below Trevor Megill. Sproat is striking out a batter per inning but also walking a batter per inning, too. Sproat allowed only one run over 3.2 IP last time against Washington on April 11. 

Milwaukee definitely has hit RHP better this season compared to LHP. However, the Brewers have produced a .738 OPS against LH starters in 2026. source

I saw there was flash flooding all around the stadium last night and a lot of fans were stranded.  I'm coming down from the Fox Valley for today's game, anyone know how the roads are looking this morning?  Will there be issues getting to the stadium and parking?

[Frisbee Slider]

Do we get a Lockridge, Perkins, Jones outfield today? Or, Matos? I assume Rengifo at 3B. Sanchez at 1B or is that experiment over?

[Outlander]

Interesting matchup with a not very good LHP against a team not very good against LHP.

[RobertCrawley]

Cy Sproat on the mound today. Let's get it done.

WIN A GAME

Wow Jones and Matos. Can't be worse than what we have been doing I guess. Trying to stay positive. It's early.

[Frisbee Slider]

Luis Lara could be a fun boost. A reminder to the roster that younger players are soon ready to acquire roster spots. 

[owbc]

I predict we'll surpass yesterday's total runs scored. Probably by the 2nd inning.

Should, that 5-9 in the lineup looks like quite the murderers’ row.

[adambr2]

Going to be a lot of head tapping today if the zone is as bad all game as it was so far.

[MilwaukeeBeers]

The raw stuff is nasty. Has to dial in the command. Thats a good start though

[adambr2]

This ump doesn’t know the zone.

[adambr2]

That’s about the best you’re ever going to get out of Rengifo.

[CheezWizHed]

Wow, 2 starters and 7 backups. woof. 

[Bulldogboy]

This is the worst lineup i have seen in my life. Hopefully it's still enough to win a ballgame but injured or not this is a shame. Mitchell not being given a shot to hit lefties is bad look.

[igor67]

I mean I did get a note that there was a JV baseball game today during announcements...

[adambr2]

Rengifo can’t hit, but at least he’s got that wicked range at 1B.

You missed the 94 to early 00 brewers

[igor67]

A lot of those lineups could hit, it was the rotations of #7 starters and no one in the bullpens outside of closers that were the main issue

Even those lineups had a Jaha here a Greg Vaughn there. Dave Nillson maybe. This is the absolute worst. 7 minor leagues and Turang and Contreras. Even the pitching is minor leagues caliber.

Sanchez can hit.

[adambr2]

Lockridge leading off is about as unserious as you can get setting a lineup.
