While it feels as though the Brewers are in the midst of a tough stretch with their pitching staff, the Brewers hurlers closed June with a better than average performance once again. The performance simply was not as great as previous months’ production: the Milwaukee arms prevented approximately 14 runs in June based on the current National League / Baseball Reference multi-year park factor. So, it’s time for the second Runs Prevented Ranking worksheet for the 2018 season at BPMilwaukee.
Currently, the Brewers have four Top 100 pitchers:
| Top 100 | Average Runs Prevented | Standard Deviation |
|---|---|---|
| (23) Jeremy Jeffress | 13.5 | 0.51 |
| (24) Josh Hader | 13.1 | 0.66 |
| (37) Junior Guerra | 10.9 | 1.17 |
| (84) Freddy Peralta (!!!) | 6.5 | 0.26 |
