Bryse Wilson has some new toys
Bryse Wilson currently leads the Milwaukee Brewers in saves.
Wilson has picked up two saves, and it’s not because he’s getting high-leverage work. Both have come in the form of three-inning relief appearances to finish off blowout victories, including Friday night’s 11-2 romping of the Padres.
Acquired from the division-rival Pirates in January, the Brewers have designated Wilson as the low-leverage long man in their bullpen. Most of his outings have come in that capacity, and he’s done a solid job in that unglamorous role. In nine innings of work, the right-hander has posted a 1.00 ERA and 2.70 FIP, striking out nine and walking three.
