As the Brewers embark on their postseason run, the prevailing national sentiment seems to be that their offense isn't strong enough to carry them very far. We, who have watched them all year (and especially recently), know better.

The Brewers announced their playoff roster for the Wild Card Series this morning. It includes 15 position players and 11 pitchers, and it certainly raises a few questions--but it answers a few, too.

Hours before Game 1, the Brewers announced their playoff roster. See who is on the 26-man roster for Round 1. 

While the Milwaukee Brewers lost four of six contests to their Wild Card Series opponent this year, those games are largely irrelevant. The Brewers and Arizona Diamondbacks have been going in different directions since they last met in June, and particularly since the start of the season's second half. The post-All-Star break stats are staggering, and some home/road splits favor Milwaukee, too.

Today, Brewer Fanatic is handing out more hardware for the players at all levels who distinguished themselves. Who was the best pitcher among those who played in the Dominican Summer League and the Arizona Complex League?

The playoffs have arrived, and the tension is beginning to build. If you want a sneak preview of just how the game may play out, look no further. Brewer Fanatic has you covered. We've got all the information on the hot hitters, probable pitchers, and any other details you need to know before first pitch.

The question is on everyone’s lips: how serious is Brandon Woodruff’s shoulder injury? Will he return later in the playoffs? How big of a loss is he? I’ll try and answer all of these questions, as well as who might now find themselves on the postseason roster as a result.

There are many great things about postseason baseball, but the very best one is this: In the playoffs, everything matters. Details that are hard to unpack or even notice during the long, all-smoothing grind of a 162-game schedule become unmistakable, urgent, and enthralling. Something tiny will determine this series. We just don’t know what yet.

Today we begin handing out our 2023 Brewers minor-league awards. We will start with the top players in the short-season, complex leagues. 

The Brewers would not have claimed their place in the Wild Card Series that starts Tuesday night, if not for a brilliant offseason trade that netted them their catcher of the present and future, plus extra help. Funny: the same is true of their opponents.

Last week, the Arizona Fall League rosters were named. The Brewers are sending eight players, five pitchers and three hitters, to be a part of the Surprise Saguaros. Learn a little more about each. 

Entering the final day of the regular season, it's still not quite clear whom the Brewers will face in the Wild Card Series starting Tuesday. We're down to two options, though, and one is much more likely than the other.

The Brewers' thrilling walkoff win Friday was more than the final nail in the coffin of their closest rival. It was a great start to a final weekend in which fans get a final chance to appreciate some players who helped get the team this far.

It isn’t just the starting nine on which a baseball team has to rely. They also need a deep bench to obtain the necessary postseason victories. Bench players have been heroes in playoffs past. Perhaps one of the more notable performances was that of Mickey Hatcher in the 1988 World Series. Filling in for the injured Kirk Gibson, Hatcher hit two home runs during that Fall Classic. As the Brewers chase the 13 wins needed to become World Series champions, who will be on their bench?

Draft tandem JD Cameron and Jeremy Nygaard team up for a new podcast to discuss prospects on their way to the big leagues.

The 2023 Milwaukee Brewers have earned the right to play on past Game 162. Their hitters will face a stern test, there, against teams whose pitching staffs got them this far. Can they meet that challenge?

The starting rotation takes a unique form in the postseason, often shifting from five men to four. Starters get more rest and miss fewer games. So, who’s getting left behind or sent to the bullpen?

The missing ingredient for a deeper playoff run from the Milwaukee Brewers in 2021 was a sense of preparation and momentum. This time around, with a deeper roster and better health, Craig Counsell will try to ensure that those things are on his side entering the Wild Card Series.
