He enters 2025 hoping to have things going right even more often. Inside the Brewers' spring training clubhouse in Maryvale, the team has assigned...3126Thu, 06 Mar 2025 15:06:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/jos%C3%A9-quintana-brings-final-brace-to-revamped-milwaukee-brewers-pitching-staff-r3124/The Brewers confirmed their signing of the former All-Star on Wednesday, completing a gradual but dramatic rotation makeover since last year. Last year, the Brewers opened the regular season with a starting rotation of Freddy Peralta, DL Hall, Colin Rea, Jakob Junis, and Joe Ross.

On Wednesday, the Milwaukee Brewers officially signed left-handed starter Jose Quintana to a one-year deal with a mutual option for 2026.

How well that skill will translate to his new team—and what he gets back in instruction from them on a new level—might help determine whether he makes...3123Wed, 05 Mar 2025 18:11:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/is-andruw-monasterio-losing-his-place-as-the-milwaukee-brewers-de-facto-utilityman-r3121/Last season, the Brewers' utility infielder only found 125 plate appearances over the full season. He didn't play well, and now, the competition for his roster spot is heating up. In 2023, Andruw Monasterio was a fun story, with the Venezuelan notching clutch hits and playing perfectly passa...3121Wed, 05 Mar 2025 15:10:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/eric-haase-on-the-digitization-of-a-human-game-in-ways-good-bad-and-just-different-r3122/The Brewers' backup catcher has considerable experience with the automated ball-strike system, challenges, and PitchCom. He has complicated feelings about them, but very simple ones about his job entering his second season with the Crew.

He doesn't throw the ball hard. He doesn't rack up strikeouts. Who cares? The Brewers can continue his recent success by focusing on the traits he does possess: deception, and pinpoint command. When I mention command, it m...3119Wed, 05 Mar 2025 00:07:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-vision-for-elvin-rodriguez-coming-into-focus-r3117/After reports from camp and a sampling of Statcast tracking, it’s becoming clearer what the Brewers see in one of their few offseason signings. When the Brewers inked Elvin Rodriguez to a split deal in January, it was unclear what role he would play on the 2025 pitching staff. He had an arse...3117Tue, 04 Mar 2025 17:07:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/how-can-the-brewers-get-the-most-out-of-jose-quintana-r3118/He has been a successful, occasionally excellent big-league starter for the past 13 years. Can the Brewers make him even better? Milwaukee’s approach to signing pitchers reminds me of house-flipping. They typically look to acquire someone whose stock is at an all-time low, but who still has...3118Tue, 04 Mar 2025 14:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/bryan-hudson-likes-his-third-pitch-better-than-ever-but-has-added-a-fourth-for-good-measure-r3120/Four-seam heat and a big, lethal sweeper were the calling cards for the huge lefty last season. Entering 2025, he feels like his third pitch is also in a great place—but is excited about the promise of a newfound fourth option. It's excruciatingly hard to be a lefty starter in the big league...3120Tue, 04 Mar 2025 12:30:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/why-aaron-ashby-increased-his-curveball-usage-last-season-and-how-hes-preparing-for-a-move-back-to-starting-r3113/Last year, the hard-throwing lefty finally got back onto a big-league mound after a long injury rehab, and he had some new ideas for using his best weapons. Now, he's gearing up to return to the starting rotation, which means a new round of adjustments. Being sidelined by injury is never fun...3113Tue, 04 Mar 2025 00:03:57 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/news-brewers-agree-to-one-year-deal-with-starting-pitcher-jose-quintana-r3114/The Brewers' starting rotation is on the cusp of a late infusion of depth.
