MILWAUKEE — Perhaps the biggest addition any contender received around the trade deadline came when the Milwaukee Brewers welcomed back their own star closer from the injured list. Devin Williams made his 2024 debut July 28 after missing four months due to stress fractures in his back. He already is providing the NL Central-leading Brewers as much of a lift as any team received from players acquired in trades over the last month. Williams retired the side in order in the ninth inning each of the last two days to help the Brewers earn a four-game split with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
