Default Torres has been excellent as closer!

As for criticizing the bullpen, you need to take a look at what torres has done. He has been nearly perfect since becoming the closer. He for some reason is an underrated pitcher and gets no respect. If the brewers had him start there who knows what there record would be. There bullpen is fine and the brewers are the hottest team in baseball. If gagne can regain any of his form, the bullpen will be tough. With him and shouse setting up torres they will be fine. Along with that, the addition of Sabbathia helps the bullpen. He throws late into many of his game and even has a few complete games. The brewers also have one of the strongest minor league systems in the majors and didn't mortgage it all a way in the trade. The huntsville team is loaded with prospects. So don't be surprised if the crew make some other moves. Go crew!
