Milwaukee Brewers: Why is Jacob Barnes so unpredictable?

Related Topics: Jacob Barnes, Milwaukee Brewers

Overall, Jacob Barnes has a 4.11 ERA. He’s given up 53 hits in 57 innings, and struck out 65 batters. Barnes currently leads the National League in holds with 24, which implies that he’s a solid setup man, but doesn’t tell the whole story.

Barnes has taken four losses this year, and two in the last few weeks. However, in between the two losses, there was a stretch of five scoreless outings from Barnes. His up and down results make it hard to determine which pitcher will show up.

Over his last 10 appearances Barnes has given up 13 total hits, five walks and five runs – three earned – in a total of 10 innings pitched.
