Kelly Seeks Rebound in Milwaukee

It's April 28th, Milwaukee Brewers news today starts now, AI powered and ready for kickoff.

Diamondbacks rolling into Milwaukee for the series opener against the Brewers with

Merrill Kelly on the mound facing Chad Patrick.

Adrienne Del Castillo is back in the lineup at designated hitter after dislocating his

finger down in Mexico, but Gerardo Predomo sits with a twisted ankle from that same

trip.

Jose Fernandez slides over to shortstop for his second straight start there, drawing

on his minor league days at the position even though he's been at.

First face lately, he racked up 22 errors over 104 games last year in Amarillo, so it's

not his strongest spot, but the team needs bodies.

Predomo was out there taking grounders today, which is a good sign he might not be out too

long.

Meanwhile, Kelly's looking to shake off a nightmare start against the White Sucks, his first

time ever coughing up eight or more earned runs, plus double-digit hits in just 4.1 innings.

That outing tied his third worst game score and was the ugliest of his career.

At Chase Field, with 13 base runners via 10 hits and 3 walks.

Brewers sit dead last in the National League Central, despite a winning record more than a

month in, thanks to barely any divisional matchups only.

20 out of 141 games among the five teams.

This inner league series won't budge those standings, but it sets up some fun watching

Kelly rebound.
