Where in my post did I compare them to the Brewers? You were the one who said they don't have these situations when they do.
Also Darvish is not a #1 or #2 type pitcher anymore he just isn't. He is a #3 type pitcher and on most of the playoff teams that is where he would be.
The only team where Darvish would be the #1 would be the Cardinals. The Cardinals do not currently have a #1 type pitcher on their staff and Darvish would be a clear upgrade. The Mets have Verlander and Scherzer, Braves have Fried and Wright, Dodgers have Urias and Kershaw, Phillies have Nola and Wheeler. So yeah Darvish is a #3 or #4 on most of the playoff teams.
ERA- is also a better stat to use than WAR for pitchers. Darvish was the 20th ranked player in 2022 with an ERA- of 80. The same as Nola so maybe he is the Phillies #2 so a coin flip there. The only team where Darvish is a clear better #1 are the Cardinals.
