Since the trade tides that brought in Willy Adames and since-dealt Trevor Richards also carried away J.P Feyereisen and Drew Rasmussen, the Brewers’ faithful have been talking about the need to add on to the bullpen.
Recency bias could also tell you that the Brewers have a bullpen deficiency. They’ve fallen behind in relief innings during their last two games, both losses against the Kansas City Royals.
Meanwhile, however, the Crew has promoted and brought in (or up) a full cast of capable relievers on their way to the 6.5 game lead they hold at the top of the NL Central.
