Via the "Brew Crew Scoop" Podcast: "Brandon Woodruff accepted the qualifying offer for 2026. This likely means the Brewers will be shopping their pitching surplus around the league, including expiring Freddy Peralta. We talked about some potential trade candidates and what it would take to get the Brewers to make a move. Additionally, we talked other offseason predictions, Brice Turang to team USA, the new powder blue uniforms (and lack of blue pants), the news around the league from the Winter Meetings, and the signing of Akil Baddoo."

Sunday 12/14:

Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "The Brewers are on the board with a trade (acquiring Ángel Zerpa for Nick Mears and Isaac Collins) and even a Major-League free-agent signing (granted, it's an under-the-radar player in Akil Baddoo). Where are we at with a possible Freddy Peralta trade? Journal Sentinel reporter Curt Hogg joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the state of the Brewers here in the dead of winter. Topics also include backup catcher, the prospect of stretching Aaron Ashby as a starter, Pat Murphy's long-term future in Milwaukee and Baja Blast Mountain Dew."

Latest Milwaukee Tailgate Podcast - "Steve sat in for Jaymes this week and walked the guys through their thoughts on the Angel Zerpa for Issac Collins and Nick Mears trade, a couple of depth signings in the OF, the release of the Brewers 2026 ZiPS projections and, of course, the cuteness of Christian Yelich's new pooch."

VIDEO via Youth Baseball Midwest's YouTube Page: "Host Brett Graves welcomes one of his Mizzou teammates who is also a pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers Rob Zastryzny who was 2-1 with a 2.45 ERA in 26 games in 2025. Commanding the strike zone as a pitcher is key to success but learning how to command your pitches at the maximum output can be a very difficult task to master. So, we have former MLB pitcher Brett and current MLB pitcher Rob here to break down learning how to command your pitch arsenal to reach the next level."

This extended discussion is for those into pitching nitty-gritty. If you missed Rob Z's October interview which was very Brewers-centric, visit here.
