There have been more go-ahead home runs than that, of course, but it's easy to forget just how many of them came with th...2739Sat, 26 Oct 2024 07:15:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/yankees-vs-dodgers-previewing-the-2024-world-series-r2736/Why does it affront so many fans when big-market teams succeed? That question is rhetorical, but not sneering, because once you think about it a bit, the reason is both obvious and reasonable: it makes us all feel small. Every baseball fan holds equal worth, and no team's worth and value depends...2736Fri, 25 Oct 2024 14:15:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/sal-frelick-jake-bauers-back-to-back-homers-wild-card-series-swing-data-barrels/Look, I know it’s bleak. The season ended in abrupt, heartbreaking fashion. I’m sure you’re crushed. Everyone is crushed, and everyone will stay crushed for a while. If only there were some magic potion that could make us all feel better. Some elixir we could drink that would make us feel light...2695Mon, 07 Oct 2024 15:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/hear-me-out-the-brewers-should-sign-rowdy-tellez-for-the-last-game-of-the-season-r2666/It’s a long season. Somebody has to be dinged up. You mean to tell me that Rhys Hoskins couldn’t use a day to rest his aching knee? If not Hoskins, then surely somebody’s back is acting up. Somebody’s dogs are barking. Jake Bauers has looked a little slow lately, and he’s normally so speedy! It’...2666Fri, 27 Sep 2024 13:07:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/the-brewers-most-entertaining-bunts-of-the-season-r2602/Anyone who’s watched the Brewers even a little bit this season won’t be surprised to learn that they lead all of baseball with 24 bunt hits. They’ve got an outside shot at tying the 2022 Giants at 28 for the most in this decade. Milwaukee has bunted 57 times in total, third-most in the league, a...2602Mon, 09 Sep 2024 13:10:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/breaking-down-the-brewers-first-base-breakdown-r2509/“You don’t have to squint to see the fit here." That’s what I wrote when the Brewers signed Rhys Hoskins back in January. The move made too much sense to deny: Hoskins needed a soft landing spot after missing the entire 2023 season with a torn ACL, but he was a remarkably consistent slugger...2509Mon, 12 Aug 2024 13:16:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/can-the-brewers-lead-the-league-in-stolen-bases-yes-they-can-r2418/The Brewers last led the league in 2016 (just four years after taking the title in 2012), and they’re in great position to do so again this year. As things stand over the All-Star break, there are three horses in the race. The Reds, fronted by the fearless and fearsome Elly De La Cruz and his 46...2418Sat, 20 Jul 2024 11:58:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/blake-perkins-straightaway-rate-brewers-batters/Coming into the season, the depth charts at FanGraphs saw Blake Perkins as Milwaukee’s fifth option in center field, penciling him in for just seven plate appearances at the position and no more than a few games at the big-league level altogether. It was understandable. After all, the team alrea...2331Mon, 01 Jul 2024 15:11:33 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/caretakers/an-offseason-look-at-the-brewers-2024-rookie-class-r1691/This is an excerpt from the 2024 Brewer Fanatic Offseason Handbook, you can find a link to download the entirety of Week Three of the handbook at the bottom of the article.
