By now, Milwaukee Brewers fans have said or heard everything when it comes to Milwaukee’s pitchers. The starters aren’t good enough. The bullpen will never survive without Corey Knebel and a less effective Jeremy Jeffress. GM David Stearns didn’t do enough at the trade deadline to improve the pitching staff.
And some of the concerns obviously haven’t been entirely without merit. Apparently in September, though, none of that matters anyway. Because once it’s time for the rosters to expand, that’s when Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell goes to work.
Once again, Counsell has used the additional players on the roster to catapult the Milwaukee Brewers toward the postseason.
