The Milwaukee Brewers won the World Series, and their pitching staff was unreal during the run.
The Brewers' pitching staff had a 1.86 ERA in the postseason, and according to Just Baseball, they are the only team that has allowed a sub-2.00 ERA in a postseason since 2000. The Brewers allowed 33 runs across 13 postseason games.
They are the first team in over 25 years to get through an entire postseason with an ERA that low, and it's a testament to the talent they have. Going into the postseason, everyone was expecting Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson to be huge contributors.
However, neither one had a six-inning outing. There were question marks about what the Brewers would do after their turns in the rotation, but Robert Gasser and the bullpen stepped up big time. Gasser was arguably the team's best starter in the postseason, but the real story is the bullpen.
Aaron Ashby threw 18 innings in the postseason and did not allow a single run. Abner Uribe, Trevor Megill, DL Hall and JoJo Romero all pitched in big spots and were borderline untouchable.
Ashby had a strong case to be World Series MVP, but really, the bullpen as a whole might be the team's postseason MVP as a whole. In the World Series clinching game, Misiorowski finally looked to be on his way to an outing that goes into the seventh inning.
However, he was knocked out with leg cramps. Luckily for the Brewers, their bullpen came up clutch one last time and brought a title back to Milwaukee.
