Brad Boxberger will be back in the Milwaukee Brewers’ bullpen this seasonMARCH 14, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Back with Brewers on one-year deal Boxberger agreed to a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Brewers on Sunday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Coming off a strong season and with 81 career saves under his belt, Boxberger could have been a closer had he landed on a different team in free agency. However, he should reprise his role as a setup man in Milwaukee, barring any trades or injuries to Josh Hader and/or Devin Williams. Boxberger logged a 3.34 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 21.8 K-BB% in 64.2 innings last season. He also chipped in five wins and four saves across 71 appearances.

He's seen a more significant role lately with Josh Hader on the COVID-19 injured list.

Records two-out save Boxberger picked up his fourth save of the season Monday against the Pirates after tossing a scoreless outing, allowing one walk and striking out one in two-thirds of an inning.

This was Boxberger's fourth save of the season, but he has gone 4-for-6 in save chances this year and only got the nod since Josh Hader is out on COVID-19 protocols.
