Marcum is a much better pitcher statistically but backign him in NY is tough to do. Brewers are one of the worst road teams in the league and Marcum has an ERA of 6.47 and WHIP of 1.6 against the Yankees. He is 1-4 in those games, with this team at 3-6. Marcum did throw a total of 98 pitches in his last 2 starts (4 total innings) due to some sort of a hip injury. Supposedly he's healthy. I think it's best to just watch this one.

The good news was way better than the bad news.  This is complete awesomeness.   

Does bullpen just mean exactly that, bullpen?  Because I am having a hard time believing that the Brewers have the #4 bullpen.  It seems like they have been pretty brutal this year.
