He wasn't checking those velocity readings, though, and he declined to connect them to any kind of adrenaline rush afterward. "It's alway...4216Fri, 27 Feb 2026 21:44:21 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/offense-in-my-mind-is-a-mindset-how-pat-murphy-is-preparing-brewers-offense-for-sustained-success-r4214/The entire position-player corps departed the Brewers clubhouse in Maryvale early on Friday morning, for a meeting that lasted a full hour. It was a meeting about run production, but the team's trio of hitting coaches barely spoke. The subject wasn't hitting, manager Pat Murphy clarified. It was...4214Fri, 27 Feb 2026 18:30:18 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/spring-temperature-check-whos-hot-and-whos-cold-in-brewers-camp-feb-23-26-r4209/  With a full week of Cactus League games now under their belt, Milwaukee Brewers players are starting to settle into routines. The fake games can beget unrealistic enthusiasm, as starters play a few innings, then give way to the minor-leaguers trying to see if they can hang. The Brewers fi...4209Fri, 27 Feb 2026 14:07:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-grant-anderson-raised-his-game-in-2025-by-raising-his-arm-r4211/He'll be overshadowed all season, by the likes of Trevor Megill and Abner Uribe. He won't always even fit onto the active 26-man roster; being eligible to be optioned to the minor leagues is a mixed blessing. After a 2025 season in which he finally established himself in the majors, though, Gran...4211Thu, 26 Feb 2026 23:03:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-the-2026-brewers-coaching-staff-will-function-without-a-bench-coach-r4210/When Rickie Weeks transitioned from the dugout to the front office over the winter, the Brewers did not hire a new associate manager or bench coach. Instead, Weeks’s responsibilities as Pat Murphy’s right-hand man will be redistributed among the rest of the coaching staff. That's because Murphy...4210Thu, 26 Feb 2026 12:34:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/rotation-bullpen-or-nashville-analytically-breaking-down-chad-patricks-arsenal-r4204/He wasn’t quite as flashy as his 6-foot-7 fellow rookie, but don’t get it twisted: Chad Patrick played a significant role in Milwaukee’s success in 2025. He posted a 3.53 FIP (the best figure of anyone on the Brewers with more than 80 innings pitched) and accumulated 2.6 fWAR, second only to Fre...4204Wed, 25 Feb 2026 17:30:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-slow-playing-brandon-woodruff-affects-brewers-starting-rotation-r4207/Unless you are all about sentimentality, the move makes perfect sense. Brandon Woodruff might not be available to start Opening Day for the Milwaukee Brewers, as the right-hander takes his time ramping up this spring following a strained right lat that prematurely brought his feel-good comeback...4207Tue, 24 Feb 2026 18:48:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/knowing-outs-will-be-there-when-hes-ready-brewers-are-taking-things-slow-with-brandon-woodruff-r4208/Given his recent injury history, Brandon Woodruff and the Brewers are taking things slow this spring. Woodruff, whose comeback from career-threatening shoulder surgery was truncated by a season-ending lat injury last September, is building up more gradually than most of Milwaukee's starters, to...4208Tue, 24 Feb 2026 14:22:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-best-and-worst-case-scenarios-for-2026-bullpen-r4199/When the Brewers held a lead after six innings in 2025, it was almost certain they would come out the winners at the end of the game. The bullpen remains a strength in 2026, especially since, in a way, it feeds off the rotation depth that the Milwaukee organization has built. More than one start...4199Tue, 24 Feb 2026 00:05:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/spring-temperature-check-whos-hot-and-whos-cold-in-brewers-camp-feb-21-22-r4203/Every fan wants to make judgments on the athletes who play for their team based on what they see in action. For MLB spring training, it is a bit more complicated. Starting players, whether position players or pitchers, ease into their springs, playing minimal innings to begin and ramping up...4203Mon, 23 Feb 2026 21:41:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/will-luis-rengifo-be-matt-ericksons-next-success-story-r4196/Editor's Note: This piece was originally an exclusive for Brewer Fanatic Caretakers.

It got so bad that the team dealt minor-league phenom Yophery Rodriguez, a competitive balance A pick, and John Holobetz to Boston for Quinn Priester. By the end of 2025, the rotation wa...4198Sun, 22 Feb 2026 16:15:02 +0000
