Mon Aug 6 201803:31Assessing the bullpens after a wild trade deadline
Now that the dust has settled after the trade deadline, here's some quick trivia:Which team does Zach Duke pitch for?How about Darren O'Day? Or Seunghwan Oh?It seemed like every contender wanted to add another arm or two in the bullpen, making the hours and days leading up to last week's non-waiver trade deadline feel like a giant game of musical chairs for relievers. The importance of relief pitching in the postseason has been obvious for a while now. Last year, the Yankees got just one out from their starting pitcher in the American League wild-card game against Minnesota, but four relievers went the rest of the way, and New York was able to advance.With so many off days built into the schedule in the playoffs, teams can push their top relievers more. Here are a few bullpens to watch down the stretch.(But first, the trivia answers: Duke was traded to Seattle, O'Day was dealt to Atlanta, and Oh is with Colorado now.)Chicago Cubs: If you made a list of the absolute top relievers in baseball,...

Guerra gave up two hits and three runs, walking two and fanning four. The Opening Day starter for Milwaukee, Guerra had a lost season because of two injures and ineffective pitching, going 1-4 with a 5.12 ERA.

RHP Junior Guerra was named as Saturday's starting pitcher after Milwaukee's 5-3 win on Friday night. Guerra was the team's Opening Day starter, but he is just 1-4 with a 4.90 ERA in a season that has seen him take two turns on the 10-day DL with right leg injuries.

RHP Junior Guerra returned to Milwaukee on Friday when rosters expanded to 40 players. The Brewers' Opening Day starter has not been able to replicate his 2016 success; he suffered a calf injury three innings into his first start and didn't return until May 26 but never got into a groove and was sent down to Triple-A on July 30 after going 1-4 with a 4.96 ERA in 12 starts.

RHP Junior Guerra, the team's ace a year ago, may be in danger of losing his spot in the rotation. Guerra was pulled after three innings Saturday night despite not allowing a run. He walked four batters and threw just 31 strikes in 61 pitches. "It is the trouble he is getting in by falling behind in the count," Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. "He got out of some jams, but if it is 2-0 or if you have four walks or if you are throwing as many strikes as balls, it is going to bite you eventually."

He was lifted after 51-minute rain delay but because Guerra sustained a right shin contusion fielding a comebacker before the stoppage.

RHP Junior Guerra still is trying to harness his command after missing most of April and a portion of May with a calf strain. In Tuesday night's 8-6 loss at Cincinnati, Guerra didn't make it out of the fifth after allowing the first four batters to reach. He allowed eight hits, half of which were homers. "I was getting behind in the count most of the game and missing spots," said Guerra, according to interpreter Carlos Brizuela. "All of the home runs were on fastballs with bad location. The velocity is still lower than last year, but at the same time, you've got to hit your location."
