It is a pitchers park but not one of the biggest in baseball and there is no way his expectations should be a high 4 ERA. His xFIP the past 2 years has been 3.96 and 4.17 and it was 3.99 in 2007. He most likely should be a 4.25 ERA pitcher or so. The Brewers also should have an average defense as long as Gamel isn't playing full time at 3B so that shouldn't impact it that much.
If he is listed as a 1 star pitcher that is pretty clearly an error in the data sample.
