Angel Zerpa has been exclusively a reliever the past three years in Kansas City. Could the Brewers use him as a starter?

The Milwaukee Brewers made a big trade for left fielder Christian Yelich nearly eight years ago. In hindsight, it has been a great move.

There has been a great deal written regarding the Milwaukee Brewers and their search for a multi-year starter at first base. After Prince Fielder left Milwaukee following the 2011 season, the Brewers had 11 different Opening Day starters at the position in each of the following 11 seasons.

Danny Jansen, the Appleton high school alumnus who closed the season with the Brewers, will reportedly play for the Texas Rangers next season.

After a defensive-led duel resulted in a narrow 2-1 loss for the Brewers in Game 1, they were unable to score more than one point in each of the games the rest of the way. By the end of the series, Los Angeles had outscored them, 15-4.

The Brewers face a Craig Counsell-like decision as Pat Murphy’s success and NL Central titles raise familiar contract questions.
