We can presume, though, that the Brewers' main two pitching options—the candidates...3876Fri, 10 Oct 2025 21:14:17 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-head-into-elimination-game-against-cubs-with-several-advantages-r3874/With a 2-0 series lead heading to Wrigley Field, there was a real hope that the Brewers could put the Cubs to bed in ruthless fashion. That hasn't happened, with the Cubs slugging the Brewers to death in Game 4 while the Milwaukee team couldn't get the big hits to drop. In some ways, this portio...3874Fri, 10 Oct 2025 15:08:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/freddy-peraltas-changeup-eluded-him-early-and-the-brewers-are-suddenly-fighting-for-their-season-r3873/For the fourth time in as many NLDS games, a Brewers starting pitcher failed to contain the Chicago Cubs in the first inning. For the second straight night, it put Milwaukee in an early multi-run deficit that it could not overcome. This time, that early scoring came against Freddy Peralta—in the...3873Fri, 10 Oct 2025 12:46:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-hitters-should-feel-confident-facing-second-half-matthew-boyd-even-at-wrigley-field-r3872/As the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs prepare for Game 4 of the NLDS on Thursday night, the Crew sends ace Freddy Peralta to the mound to face the North Siders' Matthew Boyd. Much of the Cubs' confidence in Boyd stems from his gaudy numbers at Wrigley Field this season, where he is 12-1 with...3872Thu, 09 Oct 2025 20:35:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/pat-murphys-eighth-inning-mismanagement-dealt-a-blow-to-brewers-chances-in-game-3-r3870/The Milwaukee Brewers failed to put away the Chicago Cubs in Game 3 of the NLDS, turning a potential sweep into hope for the North Siders. Though most of the club's opportunities were squandered by poor execution, manager Pat Murphy's decision-making in the top of the eighth inning had a negativ...3870Thu, 09 Oct 2025 14:18:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/tough-first-inning-took-brewers-out-of-drivers-seat-in-nlds-game-3-r3871/The Brewers made the right call in delaying Quinn Priester's first postseason start to Game 3 of the NLDS. While he blossomed into one of their most dependable starters during the regular season, his arsenal does not match up well against the Cubs. By enacting a bullpen game in Game 2, Milwaukee...3871Thu, 09 Oct 2025 11:45:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/nlds-game-3-cubs-start-strong-hold-on-for-dear-life-in-4-3-win-over-brewers-r3869/In front of a crowd that was overwhelmingly made up of Cubs partisans at Wrigley Field Wednesday afternoon, the Cubs gave up one run in the first inning to go down 1-0 early—but followed that with four runs of their own in the bottom of the first. They held off the Brewers, as Milwaukee scored s...3869Thu, 09 Oct 2025 08:22:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/brewers-nlds-game-3-lineup-raises-some-questions-hints-at-answers-to-others-r3867/  The Brewers' starting lineup is out, and Game 3 of the NLDS is just two hours away. This is the first chance the team gets to close out the Chicago Cubs and advance to their first NLCS since 2018. With right-handed starter Jameson Taillon on the mound for Chicago, you figured we'd see a c...3867Wed, 08 Oct 2025 19:25:18 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/dont-let-them-up-brewers-can-afford-aggressive-approach-to-game-3-with-pennant-in-mind-r3866/Quinn Priester is a very good pitcher, but when he's anything shy of his best self, he's not a very good matchup for the Chicago Cubs. That was the truth underlying Pat Murphy and the team's clever strategy for winning Game 2. They wouldn't couch it that way—the more politic and more effective f...3866Wed, 08 Oct 2025 11:57:04 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/one-thing-you-can-do-one-pitch-you-can-do-it-with-brewers-marvelous-specificity-creates-runs-in-bunches-r3864/Covering the fastball and the splitter is for suckers. So, for that matter, is covering the inside corner and the outside corner. Using the whole field? Loser stuff. Seeing it high and meeting it low? Nonsense. Modern pitchers are too good for a big-league batter to dig in and assume their stanc...3864Tue, 07 Oct 2025 15:02:18 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/in-game-2-relief-appearance-jacob-misiorowski-showcased-why-brewers-included-him-on-their-nlds-roster-r3863/Jacob Misiorowski threw fewer than half of his pitches on Monday night in the strike zone, including just over a third of them in his first inning. He issued two walks. He wasn't particularly efficient. It didn't matter. He made enough competitive pitches, and the outcomes of those pitches...3863Tue, 07 Oct 2025 11:31:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-news/brewers/clutch-homers-and-shutdown-relief-help-brewers-cruise-past-cubs-in-game-2-victory-r3862/Pat Murphy's first move of the night backfired badly. After just four batters in the top of the first inning, the Chicago Cubs had three runs on the scoreboard, courtesy of Seiya Suzuki’s three-run blast to deep left field against lefty Aaron Ashby. The visitors' jubilation wouldn't last long, t...3862Tue, 07 Oct 2025 04:16:00 +0000
