That could have huge implications for the team. It sounds like, for the moment, Sal Frelick is only taking reps at second and third base...1861Sun, 18 Feb 2024 16:57:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-2024-season-breakouts-sal-frelick-joey-wiemer/There are strong reasons why both Sal Frelick and Joey Wiemer may be poised for big breakouts in 2024. Here's why you need to keep a close eye on these two young freshmen: The "Freshmen" were a much-vaunted portion of the Brewers system early last season, with video on Brice Turang, Sal Frel...1859Sun, 18 Feb 2024 13:18:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2024-spring-training-position-battles-fifth-starter-r1858/Today, we continue our fledgling series about the spring training position battles that might unfold for the 2024 Milwaukee Brewers.

Today, we'll focus on the keystone position.

The question is, what would make trading Adames worth it? The most natural destination for Willy Adames...1856Thu, 15 Feb 2024 12:08:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/william-contreras-batted-ball-data-approach-changes-2024-stats/The Milwaukee Brewers made a savvy trade in December 2022, but it went from good to great thanks to their player development work. Can their star catcher take yet another step forward in 2024? Much was made of William Contreras's night-to-day transformation from fringy backstop to pitch-fram...1855Wed, 14 Feb 2024 14:55:16 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/bullpen-trade-candidates-williams-payamps-peguero-vieira-bukauskas-more/The Milwaukee Brewers are absolutely stacked in the bullpen; too few of their strong relievers have options. A trade seems imminent to unclog their depth chart, but who could we see go? Coming into the offseason, it appeared as though the Brewers' young outfield crop would be thinned down in...1853Wed, 14 Feb 2024 12:37:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/projected-lineup-christian-yelich-batting-order-batted-ball-data/After a fairly busy winter, the Milwaukee Brewers have a more functional lineup going into 2024 than they had for most of 2023. There’s still a weird fit to figure out near the top of that batting order, though. Look around the internet a bit, and you’ll find some projections of the Brewers...1852Tue, 13 Feb 2024 14:48:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/william-contreras-trade-potential-return-red-sox-marlins/For the price of Esteury Ruiz, the Brewers got an All-Star bat-first backstop and coached him into a superb all-around catcher. But should they extend him, or deal him? Suddenly, it's not as crazy a question as it could have seemed. This is a very tough question for the Crew, and there are s...1848Mon, 12 Feb 2024 19:34:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/is-bryse-wilsons-2023-success-sustainable-r1849/Bryse Wilson was one of the most underrated relievers in baseball last year. Will we see him repeat his success, or has he flown too close to the sun? Bryse Wilson wasn’t supposed to be anything close to an elite bullpen arm.

This signing fits with how the Brewers see the process of roster development. Player acquisition is about winning each plate appearance, not about filling positions.   November through February is the initial asset development phase for the...1846Sun, 11 Feb 2024 13:14:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/destination-the-show-episode-23-ben-badler-interview-r1843/Draft tandem Jeremy Nygaard and JD Cameron team up for a podcast to discuss prospects on their way to the big leagues and the MLB draft, produced by Theo Tollefson In episode 23 of Destination: The Show, Jeremy and JD are joined by Ben Badler of Baseball America.
