So far, through the first three names revealed on this countdown, we’ve seen three relief pitchers. The trend will continue with No. 47 on our top Milwaukee Brewers of the decade list.
How We Ranked Them
We created an initial list of the top players by combining their Fangraphs Total WAR from each year they were on the Brewers and ranking them from highest to lowest.
However, this wasn’t going to be list of simply who had the highest WAR while they were here and that’s it. So we adjusted the list based on postseason contributions, overall quality of player, and general importance to the franchise.
