The Milwaukee Brewers had a chance to clinch a postseason berth with a win (and losses from several key NL contenders) on Tuesday night. While that effort fell flat, as the Crew suffered a frustrating loss to the Texas Rangers, dropping the series in Arlington in the process, the Brewers are still just a couple of wins away from officially punching their ticket to the 2025 postseason.
With the postseason on the horizon, the Brewers must start thinking about their personnel, and specifically which group of arms they will carry in October. Selecting pitchers for a postseason roster is a delicate balance between carrying enough starting pitchers to cover each game and not leaving the bullpen too thin.
