No Reason to Remove Matt Garza from Brewers’ Rotation
The nightmare that is 2015 continued last night for Matt Garza, who was shelled again in his start against the Cincinnati Reds. He lasted just 3.2 innings, allowing 11 hits, seven earned runs (including a home run), with a walk and two strikeouts in a game the Brewers eventually lost 12-9. Garza has seen his ERA now balloon to 5.56, his DRA to 5.38, and his WARP is now at a putrid -0.7 wins. Currently in the midst of the worst season of his career and with September call-ups around the corner, Garza’s spot in the rotation is reportedly no longer a sure thing.
Counsell concedes that "We'll talk about it." when asked about whether he could consider "making a move" with Garza like Lohse.
