Corey Knebel, Brewers

The 25-year-old right-handed reliever began the season as Milwaukee’s primary setup man. However, when veteran Neftali Feliz was released June 14, Knebel moved into the closer’s role and wound up being the Brewers’ only selection to the All-Star Game. He has kept them in the National League Central and wild-card races, converting 29 of 34 save opportunit­ies, and had a 1.31 ERA through 62 games.
