Amazing we are still in it.

How's your injury list look? I just took a look at Milwaukee's and wonder how the hell we are hanging around. 4 pf the 5 starters at the beginning of the season are out. #2 reliever is out.

Our starters weren't that great to begin with so I'm glad we have some depth of mediocre pitchers to keep us in games.

Nick Markakis is out until September with a broken wrist. He was having another solid season, and was baseball's current iron man before the injury.
Dansby Swanson has a foot issue that has had him sidelined for a few weeks and apparently he's not close to returning.
Austin Riley is out for the season with a torn ligament in his knee.
Arodys Vizcaino was supposed to be our closer, he had surgery that took him out for the season and is now property of the Mariners.
Our ace last season, Mike Foltynewicz started the season on the DL, and was terrible when he got back and was then optioned to AAA. He's made one start since he was recalled when Kevin Gausman was shown the door.

Luckily for us Acuna and Albies are playing the best they ever have, and thank God we had a great June, because we were basically .500 before June and have basically been .500 since.

Our rotation to start the season was:

1. Julio Teheran
2. Bryse Wilson
3. Kyle Wright
4. Sean Newcomb
5. Max Fried

(Gausman and Folty were on the IL to start the season)

Our rotation now is:

1. Mike Soroka
2. Dallas Keuchel
3. Julio Teheran
4. Max Fried
5. Mike Foltynewicz

Wilson and Wright are both in AAA.

Newcomb is now in the bullpen.

Gausman is now a Red.

Not to mention the gold glove center fielder, Inciarte, missed a large amount of time with back issues.
