Through the first two weeks of the season, the Brewers bullpen struggled. In 42 innings, Milwaukee’s relief corps limped to a 4.75 ERA and 5.17 FIP. The group has experienced a turnaround in the weeks since, holding the line with a 3.67 ERA in 76 innings. There are a few reasons for the improved performance. Josh Hader is looking more like his vintage self, J.P. Feyereisen continues to put up zeros, and Devin Williams and Drew Rasmussen have pitched much better lately. However, one of Milwaukee’s best relievers has been one who gets little attention.
Brad Boxberger has fired 11 innings for the Brewers on the young season.
