MILWAUKEE • When he warms up for an appearance, whenever that might be, Cardinals reliever John Brebbia has to cycle through all of the five or six pitches he throws to see which of the group will work for him that day.
Sometimes it’s all of them. Sometimes it’s only two or a few.
“I think not having (one pitch) that I can fall back and rely on is the best thing for me because I have to try a lot of different stuff, and I have to talk to a lot of different people, and I have to try new things I’ve never done before,” Brebbia explained.
