Milwaukee Brewers: What happens when Corey Knebel returns?

The Milwaukee Brewers wouldn’t have been as close to a playoff spot last year if it wasn’t for Corey Knebel in the ninth inning. However that was last year. In 2018, Knebel went from mediocre to hurt. In that time, multiple members of the Brewers relief corps stepped up in the ninth inning. Josh Hader, Jacob Barnes, Matt Albers, and Jeremy Jeffress have earned saves this year.

Are the Milwaukee Brewers better served by sticking with the ‘closer-by-committee’ or does Knebel deserve his job back?

Why is the committee working?
