ST. LOUIS -- A.J. Burnett gave up four runs on his first six pitches Wednesday night.


And it got worse from there.


Burnett surrendered a career-high 12 earned runs in 2 2/3 innings as the Pirates dropped a 12-3 decision to the Cardinals in front of 35,987 at Busch Stadium.


St. Louis outfielder Carlos Beltran ripped a pair of three-run homers off Burnett. The Cardinals scored four in the first, three in the second and five in the third to chase Burnett, who fell to 1-2 with an 8.04 ERA.

I can actually picture this game in my mind.  I think I watched it four or five times last season.

AJ needed a change of scenery although he will continue to be inconsistent. Just to be fair minded though you failed to mention that in his previous 2 starts he had pitched 13 innings and gave up only 2 runs. To put it in perspective that is 2 starts better than Hughes and Garcia combined have given us this year and his 13 innings is almost the same that Garcia has pitched all year in all his starts.

In short, Garcia, Hughes, and AJ all stink.
