The club announced on Thursday afternoon that associate manager Rickie Weeks will transition out of the dugout, taking on a new role as special assistant in baseball operations and domestic/international scouting. The former Milwa...3933Thu, 06 Nov 2025 23:02:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/mlbs-revenue-sharing-model-has-two-big-problems-how-can-they-be-fixed-r3929/Major League Baseball's revenue-sharing model was created to level the platform all teams play from, without completely removing the incentive for some clubs to seek stronger financial positions and revenue sources. The idea is that the Dodgers and Yankees need a sturdy competitive landscape to...3929Thu, 06 Nov 2025 14:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/jake-bauers-made-big-changes-in-2025-and-his-roster-spot-should-be-safe-for-2026-r3930/Jake Bauers's hitting profile has always been a fascinating one. Bat-tracking models love him for how he can do damage on pitches on which he connects. He generates steep, dangerous attack angles and above-average bat speed. He consistently elevated the ball with hard contact to the outfield, bu...3930Wed, 05 Nov 2025 23:03:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/after-finger-surgery-will-william-contreras-be-ready-to-play-for-team-venezuela-in-the-world-baseball-classic-r3931/Brewers fans can finally stop their hand-wringing about the hand of William Contreras, which caused frustration and worry at many points during his slightly underwhelming 2025 season. Contreras was slowed, especially early in the season, by a fracture in the middle finger on his left hand, which...3931Wed, 05 Nov 2025 17:00:38 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/does-sal-frelick-have-another-leap-in-him-in-2026-r3928/After slashing .255/.326/.339 with five home runs through his first two big-league seasons, Sal Frelick posted a career-best .288/.351/.405 line with 12 home runs in 2025. With a 114 wRC+, it was his first campaign of above-average offense, elevating him from a capable glove-first right fielder...3928Wed, 05 Nov 2025 12:45:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-add-coleman-crow-to-40-man-roster-as-brandon-woodruff-and-danny-jansen-become-free-agents-r3927/As expected, the Brewers declined their half of the mutual option on Danny Jansen on Monday. Equally unsurprisingly, Brandon Woodruff declined his side of a mutual option for 2026. Milwaukee will owe buyouts to Jansen and Woodruff, but the $10 million they'll pay to the latter will be divided ev...3927Mon, 03 Nov 2025 22:37:29 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-offseason-targets-trade-and-free-agent-fits-from-the-san-diego-padres-r3926/It can’t be easy playing second fiddle to the Dodgers every year, especially if you’re as good a team as the Padres are. This year, they won just three fewer games than the eventual World Series champions—enough for a Wild Card spot, but not enough to beat a surging Cubs team in October.  T...3926Mon, 03 Nov 2025 18:48:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/with-buyouts-coming-key-to-understanding-brewers-payroll-picture-is-breaking-free-from-one-number-thinking-r3925/By Thursday, MLB teams and the players with whom they've struck past deals that include options for 2026 have to make their decisions about whether to exercise or decline those options. For the Milwaukee Brewers, this fall, that means five dilemmas—none of them especially difficult, and four of...3925Sun, 02 Nov 2025 17:09:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-offseason-targets-trade-and-free-agent-fits-from-the-philadelphia-phillies-r3924/Despite a disappointing postseason run, the Phillies were (at least on paper) one of the best teams in MLB this year. Aside from winning 96 games, they also posted a combined OPS of .759 (4th in MLB) and an ERA of 3.79 (8th in MLB). With a colossal payroll (a CBT number of $307.8 million for 202...3924Fri, 31 Oct 2025 11:53:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/the-brewers-didnt-challenge-enough-calls-in-2025-and-have-to-adjust-in-2026-r3923/In 24 tries, the 2025 Milwaukee Brewers got calls overturned via replay review 17 times. Only the Arizona Diamondbacks had a higher success rate when they chose to challenge a call—but part of the reason for that was that the Crew challenged many fewer plays than many of their opponents.

His bat speed fell to the lowest marks of his rookie campaign in those months, at 66.9 miles per hour—about 1.5 miles per hour slower than had been his norm until then. Durbin was a good h...3922Wed, 29 Oct 2025 11:39:50 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/if-blake-perkins-attains-arbitration-eligibility-will-he-end-up-as-trade-bait-for-brewers-r3921/  Entering this offseason, Blake Perkins has 2 years, 133 days of official MLB service time. That puts him extremely close to the line between those players in the two-to-three-year service tier who qualify for arbitration eligibility under Super Two rules, and those who don't, according to...3921Tue, 28 Oct 2025 22:16:02 +0000
