Still, we also have to wonder: why did it come to this? Notably, the Cubs...1641Tue, 07 Nov 2023 13:20:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/what-exactly-have-the-brewers-lost-in-craig-counsell-a-breakdown-r1640/Craig Counsell’s decision to leave the Milwaukee Brewers for their arch nemeses, the Chicago Cubs, had shockwaves rippling through the neighboring states. How valuable was he to the Brewers, and can they replace him--or even upgrade at the position? Let's break down the nitty-gritty of what this...1640Tue, 07 Nov 2023 12:10:59 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/oh-my-goodness-craig-counsell-is-leaving-and-its-for-the-cubs-r1639/For a few minutes Monday afternoon, Brewers fans could exhale with a feeling of relief. The Mets hired Carlos Mendoza, not Craig Counsell, to manage the team in 2024. Then, the other shoe fell. Counsell is gone, to take the helm of (of all teams) the rival Chicago Cubs.  This is an Earth-sha...1639Mon, 06 Nov 2023 18:48:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/wade-mileys-departure-opens-up-many-possibilities-in-brewers-rotation-r1636/In something of a surprise, Wade Miley declined his side of a mutual option for 2024 this weekend. Miley joins a crowded group of free-agent starting pitchers, and the Brewers now have some money to spend and another slot in their rotation to fill. Well into his late 30s and after a second s...1636Mon, 06 Nov 2023 15:06:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/what-the-mark-canha-trade-tells-us-about-the-brewers-offseason-plans-r1634/Saturday saw the first significant news of the MLB offseason for the Milwaukee Brewers, as they traded away a key piece of their division championship team and began charting a course for the winter ahead. It shouldn't surprise us that the Brewers elected not to pay Mark Canha $11.5 million...1634Sun, 05 Nov 2023 12:08:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/news-brewers-trade-mark-canha-to-the-detroit-tigers-for-minor-league-pitcher-r1633/The Brewers have made their first highly notable move of the 2023-24 offseason, trading Mark Canha to the Detroit Tigers rather than picking up his 2024 contract option. Having clearly decided not to bring back Mark Canha for $11.5 million, the Brewers decided instead to bolster an already s...1633Sat, 04 Nov 2023 18:05:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-bring-back-colin-rea-stabilizing-back-end-of-2024-starting-rotation-r1629/After very briefly becoming an official free agent, Colin Rea is officially returning to the Brewers in 2024. This might seem like a minor move, but it's an important one for the club. The deal that will bring Colin Rea back for another season includes $3.5 million in salary, $500,000 in per...1629Fri, 03 Nov 2023 04:47:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/destination-the-show-episode-11-r1627/Draft tandem JD Cameron and Jeremy Nygaard team up for a new podcast to discuss prospects on their way to the big leagues.

Their magic ran out there, though, and now, they might be a prime place for Milwaukee to find infield help for 2024. As underwhelming as Jordan Lawlar's first cup of coffee in the big l...1628Thu, 02 Nov 2023 11:13:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/does-bringing-back-carlos-santana-make-sense-for-the-brewers-r1625/Earlier this week, Sports Info Solutions released the runners-up for their prestigious Fielding Bible Awards at each position. Technically speaking, the Brewers had two players on that list. Should they bring both back in 2024?

Entering this offseason, though, the defending NL Central champions have some high-profile needs. Will those needs compel them to make a splash? With Brandon Woodruff on the shelf for 2024, there is a glaring hole in...1621Mon, 30 Oct 2023 13:07:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/who-should-emerge-as-the-brewers-top-outfielders-in-2024-r1619/We have a pretty good idea of who will play left field for the 2024 Brewers. The other two spots seem fairly wide-open, though, and the huge number of credible candidates for those jobs illustrates that the team really doesn't have a solution yet. Obviously, in a perfect world, Jackson Chour...1619Sat, 28 Oct 2023 11:12:00 +0000
