There are three things certain in this life: death, taxes, and the Milwaukee Brewers having one of the best closers in the game.

In the aftermath of the Milwaukee Brewers' historic World Series victory, Trevor Megill has been named a finalist for the Reliever of the Year award. This recognition highlights the team's dominant bullpen, which has consistently been a key factor in their success. Megill, along with Mason Miller and Jhoan Duran, are among the finalists for this prestigious accolade.
The award, named after the late Trevor Hoffman, has been won by Brewers pitchers five times since its inception in 2014. Josh Hader, Devin Williams, and Megill himself have all claimed the title. Despite his stellar performance in the postseason, Megill's regular season stats will not be considered for the award. He finished the 2026 season with 30 saves and a 2.63 ERA.
As the Brewers contemplate their offseason moves, trade offers may be considered for their All-Star pitcher. For more Wisconsin sports news, visit Wisconsin Sports Heroics.
