Aaron Ashby's Record-Breaking Wins

On April 21st, Milwaukee Brewer's relief pitcher Aaron Ashby is leading all of Major League

Baseball with five wins early in the 2026 season. That's right, not the big starters like Jacob

Missierowski or Brandon Woodruff, but a reliever topping the charts. And Ashby has been lights out

in short stints, grabbing his fifth win after just one third of an inning on April 16th and his

fourth the day before in one full frame. For relievers, wins are super unpredictable since they

hinge on game situations flipping at the perfect moment. Fans and analysts are buzzing because his

pace projects to 38 wins over a full season if it held up, which it won't. It's just that hot

of a start. The brewers couldn't ask for more from their bullpenays right now. The all-time record

for a reliever sits at 18 wins, set by Roy Face with the Pittsburgh Pirates back in 1959.

On April 20th, Ashby was just 13 shy, but nobody's calling that sustainable reliever wins

can dry up fast or keep flowing. Either way, Ashby's owning these early games,

giving Milwaukee a huge edge as the season ramps up. This has been Milwaukee Brewer's news today,
