Brett Anderson is one of the Brewers’ forgotten starters. So much is made of the Brewers’ big three of Freddy Peralta, Brandon Woodruff, and Corbin Burnes, but we forget about the others sometimes. Adrian Houser, Eric Lauer, and Anderson all play important roles. And if those guys are pitching well, Milwaukee is going to be even harder to beat in the postseason. The Brewers will likely need one to be good for the seven-game series in the championship and world series. Anderson is pitching masterfully of late. He continued his fine work on Sunday. Anderson gave up one run on three hits in almost six innings of work while striking out three. After the game, he talked about working quick & getting out of the Atlanta heat.

Looking at the Atlanta weather, I don’t blame Anderson. The humidity this morning is 88% and the dew point is 67%. That is hot. Our good pal Mitch talks all the time about how the dew point is what you need to focus on, not the humidity. Therefore, I don’t blame Anderson for wanting to get the hell out of there. He’s a biggish boy too, so, I’m sure the sweat happens fast with him. Even if you’re a guy from Texas like Anderson, the heat sucks typically.

Good win for the Brewers. Nice that they could take two of three from Atlanta, and five of six on this road trip.
