Megill's Struggles: Brewers Manager Open to Bullpen Shakeup

0:00It's April 15th. This is Milwaukee Brewer's news today, powered by AI your team, your update. Milwaukee Brewer is closer. Trevor McGill is off to a rough start this season, and manager Pat Murphy is now open to shaking things up in the 9th. Inning. McGill got hit hard Tuesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays, giving up three runs in the 9th during a 9-7 loss in 10 innings. But Bunt has earned run average to 14.40 over just five innings pitched. Fans at American Family Field booed him off the field, but Murphy jumped to his defense, calling it poor taste and reminding everyone, these are, humans, not machines. McGill owned it too, saying his pitch execution needs work, and he's way better than this. Last year, McGill was an all-star, with 30 saves and a 2.49 earned run average, even closing out a playoff win. The brewers lost their sixth straight, their longest skid since 2023, and the bullpen lacked strong backups with Avner Urbe struggling, and Jared Kohnig hurt.

1:03Murphy feels for McGill, but says he hasn't earned the role lately, though he can win it back with better stuff, especially since his velocity matches.
