Player Profile #115: Shaun Marcum | SP | MIL
It seems that Shaun Marcum has shaken off the injury bug after putting up consecutive, near-200-inning seasons. He was one of my favorites coming into 2011, but I was disappointed with his move to the National League. His walk rate went up (6.9 BB% up from 5.4%), strikeout rate went down (19.2 K% down from 20.6%) and his ground ball rate continued to fall (37.2 GB% down from 38.4...

Is Shaun Marcum Burnt Out?
As Shaun Marcum takes the mound for Game 2 of the NLCS against Milwaukee tonight, the shadow of a 4.2 inning, seven run implosion against Arizona in Game 3 of the NLDS will loom large. But Marcum’s first playoff start is the only recent negative for the right-handed changeup specialist: Marcum has only put together two solid outings since the calendar flipped to September....

2012 Fantasy Baseball: Zack Greinke & the Milwaukee Brewers starting rotation preview

Shaun Marcum Player Projection No. 137
Key Stats: Since missing the 2009 season with Tommy John surgery Shaun Marcum has been ranked in the top 125 in the Yahoo player rater two years in a row. The greatest strength of Marcum statistically is his WHIP. Going back to the season before he had Tommy John surgery, Marcum has finished with a 1.16, 1.15, and 1.16 WHIP each of the last three seasons. Skeptics Say: Marcum had...

Brewers remain confident in Marcum
MILWAUKEE -- Before Monday's Game 2 of the NL Championship Series, Milwaukee Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said starting pitcher Shaun Marcum would pitch again in the series. After Monday's results, it wouldn't be unfair to question whether that decision was set in stone.
Marcum struggled again in his second postseason start, spotting the St. Louis Cardinals an early...

The Brewers lost: WTF RRR
A lot can be said about Ron Roenicke's handling of the Brewers in the 2011 NLCS. I'm sure that much of it will key in on his stubborn decision to start Shaun Marcum in game 6 despite all signs pointing to that not working out very well. Some people will argue that it should have been Gallardo in this spot and that we could have just "figured it out" for game 7 and...

Shaun Marcum Would Be ‘Shocked’ if Teammate Ryan Braun Took Steroids
As baseball fans we have all learned not to be surprised when we hear any name associated with performance-enhancing drug use. That being said, Ryan Braun is one of those names that causes the tiniest raise of the eye brow. You wouldn’t really expect to hear Braun’s name thrown in with the likes of Manny Ramirez, Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Alex Rodriguez, and Jason...

What a difference a year makes? Last offseason, the Brewers traded top prospect Brett Lawrie to the Blue Jays for Shaun Marcum. This offseason, the Jays had the opportunity to flip Lawrie to the Mariners for Michael Pineda—and, according to Jeff Blair of The Globe and Mail, they turned it down.
Pineda was later traded to the Yankees in a four-player deal also involving Jesus...

Marcum gets another chance
Shaun Marcum's third chance to get a victory in the playoffs just so happens to come in the Brewers' biggest game in almost three decades. Marcum figures to have as big a hand as anyone in determining whether the Brewers are able to take advantage of their home-field advantage once more and force a decisive Game 7.

The Cardinals just don't swing-and-miss
With Shaun Marcum getting ready to start Game 6 of the NLCS with the Brewers' season on the line, a lot has been made about Marcum's inability to draw swinging strikes over the past month or so.
