The Milwaukee Brewers will have a lot of obvious names in their post season bullpen, but they may make a few strategic changes. Which relievers should they keep active, and who gets left off the roster when the post season starts?
How many relievers should the Brewers carry?
The biggest decision is whether the Milwaukee Brewers go with eight relievers or nine. Assuming they switch to a four-man rotation, the Brewers could carry as many as nine relief pitchers or go with their ‘normal bullpen’ plus the starter who was pushed out.
Knowing manager Craig Counsell, nine relievers are probably what we’ll see in the post season.
