The Brewers have eight more starting pitchers in big league camp behind those top six arms, four on the 40 man roster and four non-roster invitees. Elvin Rodriguez was signed in free agency following a great season in Japan last year. Henderson and Patrick were added to the 40 man in November to protect them from the Rule 5 Draft.

This year's pitching staff, which sports several new faces like Blake Snell, Roki Sasaki, Kirby Yates and Tanner Scott, was also joined by old friend Clayton Kershaw, who still has yet to officially sign.
