Thursday felt like that should have been the last day that Ryan Brasier pitched for the Chicago Cubs in any inning of consequence. During the Cubs' 4-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, Brasier was tagged for 2 runs on 3 hits while walking 1 in an inning of work. Brasier was the first Cubs' reliever to enter the game after Shota Imanaga tossed 7 innings while giving up 2 runs, and it feels like the veteran relief pitcher should no longer be a part of the bullpen circle of trust.
Through 28 appearances this season, Brasier is sitting with an ERA of 4.
