I never knew an ERA could go over 99.99.

It can.

2032 eighth round draftee, Juan Sotelo, saw his first action of the 2033 season. He surrendered 3 hits, two walks and five runs.

In 1/3 of an inning.

His WHIP is 15.00

Opponents are hitting 0.750

LOL - I know it's rookie ball and one appearance is a terrible sample-size. I found it funny that a guy's ERA could be 135.00. I always just thought it ran into 99.99 and that was it.

 Yep, apparently that is a thing. My closer gave up 4 in a third of an inning in the season opener for an ERA of 108.00. He got it down to “only” 27.00 in the second game (and has been on the DL ever since), but it was neat to see that the 99.99 is specifically for guys whose ERA should technically be infinite and not just an absolute cap.
