So what about this starting pitching staff that had done so well for the Brewers this season and kept them in the race. Who are these guys?
Well, they are led by a trio of veterans, with the outspoken elder statesman, Jason Lawson the ace of the staff. Workhorse lefty Alex Burley provides valuable consistency. Jeff Burdick, who was the Brewers very first pick in the inaugural draft (16th overall), has been a disappointment and it now seems his best year are in the past, but he does provide smarts and another lefty arm in a park that favors left-handed hitters.
