The Brewers have had the second most save opportunities in the NL this season and are second to last in save percentage. Just a league-average performance in save percentage would have yielded 7 more victories. Remove 14 RS off the Brewer ledger and recompute their Pythag for 701/646/142. That projects to expected wins of 76, a gain of 4 from actual. Those 14 RS, if strategically removed at the tail end of 7 games (2 runs each to turn a L to a W) in terms of boosting the save percentage to league average, adds 7 W's to the Brewer record. What does it all mean? I don't know, but I think it's fair to say that, at only two games back, even a modest increase in bullpen efficiency would have the Brewers in the lead in the WC race with a small margin.
