Wrap Up
The season was pushed back a day due to weather but today the Brewers and Mets will both kickoff their 2024 seasons. The Brewer’s new ace Freddy Peralta looks to shut down the Mets bats in game one. The Brewers will look to get their bats off to a hot start against veteran left Quintana. This series should provide plenty of offense while both pitching staffs try, and figure themselves out after a series of injuries and offseason departures.
