Overall I thought Burnes was perfectly acceptable today. Command was erratic but didn't give up a ton of hard contact. When he's hitting the bottom outside edge of the zone with his slider on righties it is a thing of beauty to watch. Unlocking his full potential is a work in progress but today was a nice beginning to his 2020.
Someone on the Brewers really needs to be a good teammates to Burnes already and tell him he's had a booger hanging the last couple innings. Well, too late now.
Consider this sequence of events: In the last 2 years, we 1) Hired Eric Sogard for a bit over 2 million 2) Fired him because he was so bad at his job 3) Payed him to stay home 4) Hired him back at double his previous salary
The zillion things that are different about this season and we still couldn't figure out a way to get rid of the old dude standing directly behind the catcher getting the calls wrong.
It's like they let a bunch of inebriated 22 year olds at a bachelor party throw 10 names into a hat, and then picked the name that those 10 thought was the most hilarious.
Which is the worst kind of human being? 1) Doesn't say "thank you" when someone opens a door for them 2) Leaves a shopping cart in a parking space instead of returning it to the designated cart area 3) Doesn't give you a wave or acknowledgment when you let them in on the highway or let them go first at a stop sign
