Peavey, you're such a dumbass.

 

Wow, that's classy. This guy's a moderator?

 

Seriously, folks, let's get a little perspective here.

Can we hire Dean Taylor to put a bullpen together? IIRC, that was the only strength the Brewers really had during his tenure here.

I mentioned before the season even started it was a mistake to rely almost exclusively on young, unproven pitchers to carry the bullpen. It seems obvious to me that the best bang for the buck with a small payroll team is to pay a couple of decent bullpen vets. Doesn't cost much, but you get a lot of mileage (and some wins.) And you can still have 2 young guys there as well, but don't rely on 4 of them!
