Let’s tackle left field, simultaneously the simplest and the most complex spot for the team in the coming year. Only five players in MLB will take up a higher percentage of their team’s Opening Day payroll th...801Mon, 13 Mar 2023 12:30:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-world-baseball-classic-notes-rodr%C3%ADguez-shines-against-puerto-rico-frelick-rakes-r800/The Milwaukee Brewers’ delegation to the World Baseball Classic has already yielded some impressive performances, headlined by a prospect who made the most of a rare opportunity Saturday. Last year, Carlos F. Rodríguez pitched very well in the Brewers system. After being a sixth-round pick f...800Sun, 12 Mar 2023 12:04:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2023-positional-previews-third-base-r794/Today, we finish out the week by completing a trip around the horn. Our position-by-position preview of the 2023 Brewers is headed for the hot corner.  Though they don't directly or solely model themselves on the Tampa Bay Rays, the Brewers do emulate their small-market brethren in their app...794Fri, 10 Mar 2023 13:28:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/2023-mlb-playoff-odds-tiers-by-the-numbers-part-three-r786/It's time to talk only about the best of the best. Here are the teams the projections think stand the best chances of playing right through Halloween. Let's quickly rehash this. I went through the FanGraphs and Baseball Prospectus projected standings and Playoff Odds, and have placed the tea...786Thu, 09 Mar 2023 15:18:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2023-positional-previews-shortstop-r791/The Brewers have questions, platoons, and guys competing with each other in camp at almost every position this spring. Shortstop, however, is a beacon of stability. Almost since the moment the Brewers traded for him in 2021, Willy Adames has been an impact player. While his profile has the k...791Thu, 09 Mar 2023 13:05:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/2023-mlb-playoff-odds-tiers-by-the-numbers-part-two-r785/We're back, with more of our team-by-team tiered tour of the projection systems and playoff odds for 2023. As a reminder, the win totals and Playoff Odds listed below represent an average of the projections at FanGraphs and Baseball Prospectus. The payroll figures are drawn from Cot's Contra...785Wed, 08 Mar 2023 17:29:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2023-positional-previews-second-base-r790/As we continue to tour the diamond in the runup to Opening Day, second base now comes under the microscope. There are two very good options available, but choosing the right one won’t be easy for the Brewers. Last week at FanGraphs, Jay Jaffe wrote about the weakest position groups on each c...790Wed, 08 Mar 2023 12:22:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/2023-mlb-playoff-odds-tiers-by-the-numbers-part-one-r784/The major playoff odds reports are out, from both Baseball Prospectus and FanGraphs. Let's take a tour of them, to get a sense of the landscape as Opening Day appears on the horizon. For each of these teams, I found the mean of their projected win totals and Playoff Odds on both Baseball Pro...784Tue, 07 Mar 2023 16:18:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2023-positional-previews-first-base-r783/In the second installment of our position-by-position preview of the 2023 Brewers, we migrate from behind the plate to first base. Led by the third straight successful veteran reclamation project at that position, Milwaukee appears set to enjoy solidly average or better production again this yea...783Tue, 07 Mar 2023 13:34:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/milwaukee-brewers-2023-positional-previews-catcher-r782/Three and a half weeks out from Opening Day, we’re ready to start previewing the Brewers for 2023 on an in-depth, position-by-position basis. That begins today, with the high floor and exciting upside of the team’s catching corps. With the acquisition of William Contreras, Matt Arnold filled...782Mon, 06 Mar 2023 13:17:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/could-blake-perkins-make-the-opening-day-roster-r781/Way back in November, the Brewers signed outfielder Blake Perkins to a split contract, after he'd become a minor-league free agent at the end of the 2022 season. After his Cactus League homer Saturday, and in light of the injuries plaguing the team's outfielders, he might make the club,.

March 3rd, 2023, is the day we saw the shift return to Major League Baseball after restrictions were implemented after the 2022 season. New rules stipulate that four fie...779Sat, 04 Mar 2023 22:14:01 +0000
