Some of you are just old enough to remember how Dave Duncan, pitching coach for the Cards, turned guys like Fedde into productive pitchers again.
Wouldn’t it be great if the Brewers coach could do that for Fedde now.
Fedde didn’t “lose it” in a year. He is better than this.

Maybe the problem is that they just don't make them like Dave Duncan anymore.
Then again, maybe the problem is that Fedde is more Sidney Ponson than Kyle Lohse.

When a guy with a 5.80 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP shows you who they are, believe it.
Perhaps he could reset for 2026-as has been noted, someone will give him a shot. But he is burnt toast this year.
The Milwaukee move is perplexing.

didn't see that one coming.
Can you see the shutout against the Cards coming from 2 weeks away?
And then there will be the posts saying how dumb are the cardinals to let this guy go he’s talented!
Yeah, for beating one of the worst teams in baseball. You bet

He's pitching in relief currently.

Makes sense. They can give some starting pitchers some needed rest heading into the playoffs.

Bizarro world move. The Brewers don't have anybody in their vaunted development system to cover innings for September? In a playoff run?? They signed Fedde for 1 year???
It’s just for the remainder of the season. Contracts signed mid-season are “1-year” contracts, but the salary is prorated.

You overestimate CT rationality. There's literally a Fedde thread right now on p.1 or 2 saying we were too hasty in dropping him.
