MILWAUKEE – Seventeen games into their season, the Brewers are on pace to churn through 76 starting pitchers in 2024. The record, in case you’re wondering, is 24, a mark shared by the 109-loss Philadelphia A’s of 1915 and the 112-loss Oakland A’s of 2023. This year’s Brewers aim to stabilize things well before they flirt with that kind of company.
But going into Wednesday’s 1-0 win over the Padres at American Family Field, that long-term goal was less important than the immediate ones: Cobble together nine innings on a bullpen day, and beat San Diego to avoid getting swept.
