Devin Williams is the man. Milwaukee Brewers star reliever is having a breakout year. He made a case for Rookie of the Year with how good he has been out of the pen. Williams is nearly unhittable and gave Milwaukee a real second option in the bullpen. It reminds you of when Josh Hader had Williams’ role then he would set up Corey Knebel or another closer. Williams’ change-up cannot be hit. It is one of the best pitches in baseball. There is only one hit on it all year and that is an infield single by Kolton Wong. Last night, he struck out five batters in two innings. Three of those five happened in the eighth inning, and they were all Cincinnati’s best players – Joey Votto, Eugenio Saurez, and Mike Moustakas. It is one of the best innings of the year.

How do you hit that? Seriously, can someone inform me? That seems very difficult. These aren’t low-level Pittsburgh Pirates that he is making look foolish either. Votto is a probable Hall of Famer. Saurez and Moustakas are former All-Stars. These guys are not run of the mill baseball players. They don’t look that fooled regularly. Williams has next to no buzz about him for Rookie of the Year which is a crime. Not sure where the Brewers’ marketing was on that one. They should be gassing him up for voters to think about Williams for ROY in the National League.
