The ignored strength of the Brewers' 2026 roster that will carry them in the postseason

The Brewers' bullpen has been a strength during their recent playoff runs, posting a 1.80 ERA last season and continuing that excellence into 2026. Key contributors Trevor Megill, Abner Uribe, Chad Patrick, and Jacob Misiorowski all return, with Misiorowski now functioning as an ace contending for the NL Cy Young Award while the others remain in relief roles. Megill is fully healthy this season after missing September last year with an injury, and has converted his last 20 save opportunities, while Aaron Ashby is performing better than he did a year ago. Manager Pat Murphy has access to a versatile mix of right-handed and left-handed relievers, with the bullpen posting an MLB-best 2.22 ERA in August.
