At age 28, San Antonio close Adam Vane has his breakout season, winning his first Reliever of the Year award.
Three former Brewers- Justin Bismark, Jordan Stephens, and Sam Pruiett- also received votes but Vane took all the first place votes to easily win the honor.

Wow, here's a shocker! (Sarcasm alert.)
Jamel McNeil has now won the Reliever of the Year award 8 times in his storied career, 4 times apiece in each league. He is the gold standard at his position and likely in the future this award will be known as the Jamel McNeil award.
Among the 3 other pitchers getting first place votes for this award was the Brewers Ben Flynn, who finally started to live up to his great potential this season.
