Josh Lindblom was among many Brewers to have a disappointing 2020 season. In his return from a fantastic two-year stint with the Doosan Bears of the KBO League, Lindblom limped to a 5.16 ERA in 45 innings. He started ten games and made two appearances out of the bullpen during a brief demotion from the starting rotation. No one was expecting the well-traveled hurler to replicate his performance from his time with the Bears, when he worked 363 innings with a 2.68 ERA and won the 2019 Most Valuable Player Award. However, he was expected to be a productive middle-of-the-rotation starter.
