Description

The Milwaukee Brewers recent trade for left-handed reliever Ángel Zerpa from the Kansas City Royals, in exchange for outfielder Isaac Collins and reliever Nick Mears, has left fans puzzled. Zerpas four point one eight earned run average last season doesnt immediately stand out, but the Brewers see potential in his elite ninety-six point six miles per hour sinker and impressive ninety-ninth percentile ground-ball rate. The team aims to simplify Zerpas arsenal, focusing on his best pitches and increasing spin rates, while also leveraging their strong defensive infield. If the Brewers can help Zerpa lengthen his delivery, his untapped potential could significantly improve.
