Going into the 2018 season, most believed that the Milwaukee Brewers starting rotation was stopping them from going to the playoffs. Through the first week of games, that concern has been justified.
After five games the Brewers have one quality start. After the great Opening Day start from Chase Anderson, the wheels have come off. The rotation has pitched a total of 24 innings and has given up 17 runs. Collectively, Brewers starters own an ERA of 12.70. The bullpen has pitched almost as many innings as the starting rotation.
