Scouting Report
Brewers: Gallardo worked seven shutout innings to beat the Astros on Wednesday for his third win in four starts, holding Houston to six hits and never allowing a runner past second base. He also went 1-for-3 at the plate and scored a run, boosting his batting average to .281 (9-for-32). He is nearing the point where Brewers officials are concerned about his innings pitched.
Pirates: With Paul Maholm still sidelined with tightness in his lower back, Bullington will get a second start since being called up. The former No. 1 Draft pick made his first Major League start last Thursday and lasted just three innings while allowing five runs. The Pirates are going to remain very cautious on how many pitches Bullington throws, since it is still his first season off shoulder surgery. Before joining the Pirates, Bullington pitched 150 innings down at Triple-A.
