He hasn’t been as productive as many hoped, despite lambasting 25 home runs on the year, but it seems important to break the year down into two segments for Hoskins, based on an early season hamstring injury: First 6 weeks - .233/.340/.474, 21% K rate, 1...2654Tue, 24 Sep 2024 14:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/two-out-offense-has-been-a-specialty-for-the-brewers-offense-can-it-be-so-in-october-r2660/In the comment section of a piece I wrote yesterday about the Brewers' power-speed combination and varied means of scoring runs, community moderator and site member @Team Canada made an astute observation: As most Brewer Fanatic denizens are, T.C. was right on the money. No team in MLB ha...2660Tue, 24 Sep 2024 11:31:58 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-five-keys-to-playoff-success-for-the-milwaukee-brewers-r2658/For the sixth time in seven years, the Milwaukee Brewers have had a bite of the apple. However, since their 2018 run to the NLCS, the Brewers haven’t won a playoff series in October. Each variation of the team was unique in its way. Still, it seems safe to say that this Brewers unit is markedly...2658Mon, 23 Sep 2024 23:14:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/wild-card-series-matchups-mets-braves-dbacks-position-battles-rea-myers/The Brewers managed to clinch the NL Central last week, to cap off what has been a dominant season. Their run differential of +124 is the third-highest in MLB, behind only the Yankees (+147) and Dodgers (+133). That's despite Milwaukee not having nearly the same star power, and their biggest nam...2656Mon, 23 Sep 2024 16:25:20 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/no-offense-quite-like-the-2024-milwaukee-brewers-has-ever-graced-october-r2655/It's not really the identity of this Brewers team, but something wild happens when you sit down with the numbers, even for a moment. You realize that, despite their understated offensive profile, this is one of the most explosive teams who have ever reached October. By and large, stolen bas...2655Mon, 23 Sep 2024 13:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-diamondbacks-comeback-rhys-hoskins-blake-perkins-willy-adames/When Frankie Montas left the mound in the top of the third inning, his team trailed 8-0. A couple of hours later, the Brewers’ bullpen and offense had taken him off the hook in a thrilling 10-9 comeback victory. It was the fourth time in franchise history (and first since 2004, and only the...2653Mon, 23 Sep 2024 11:44:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/a-sunday-to-remember-in-milwaukee-r2652/Like many Wisconsinites, I spent the first part of my afternoon tuning into a football game. With the Brewers having clinched only a handful of days ago, and subsequently playing tepid baseball, my sports fandom had shifted elsewhere. I felt vindicated with my decision as the MLB app pinged all...2652Sun, 22 Sep 2024 22:34:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/passed-over-for-the-latest-bullpen-promotion-bryan-hudsons-outlook-remains-uncertain-r2648/When the Brewers added a fresh arm to their bullpen ahead of Friday night’s game, they passed over one of their former high-leverage relievers who has spent much of the month in Triple-A. Kevin Herget, not Bryan Hudson, got the call to replace Enoli Paredes. The Brewers optioned Hudson to N...2648Sun, 22 Sep 2024 11:49:27 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/will-the-brewers-start-the-least-impactful-hitter-in-mlb-for-playoff-games-r2645/During the early weeks of the season, Rhys Hoskins was struggling. Watching him, though, I could still see a lot of what made Hoskins the Brewers' top target in free agency this past winter: the power, the well-organized approach, and the better feel for contact than you expect from the troglody...2645Fri, 20 Sep 2024 11:49:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/%E2%80%9Cthis-is-a-game-about-people%E2%80%9D-how-an-emphasis-on-character-led-brewers-to-success-in-2024-r2644/Baseball as a sport, although it is a team sport, is encapsulated by the individual battles: pitcher vs. hitter. Mano a mano, from 60 feet, 6 inches. As a result, it’s easy to overlook one of the most important functions of any team sport, which is the psychological support players and staff pro...2644Thu, 19 Sep 2024 22:06:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/amid-front-facing-turnover-continuity-behind-scenes-has-kept-brewers-consistently-competitive-r2643/The Brewers secured their third division title in four years, after an offseason of turnover. Brandon Woodruff ultimately re-upped on a two-year deal, but his recovery from shoulder surgery ruled him out for the entire season. Corbin Burnes was traded to the Orioles two weeks before pitchers and...2643Thu, 19 Sep 2024 16:02:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-pitchers-who-sealed-brewers-division-clinching-victory-perfectly-capture-their-brilliance-r2642/A great executive who never worked for the Brewers, named Pat Gillick, was fond of saying that a good team must fish in many rivers to collect enough talent to sustain success. There are lots of ways to find good players, and just as importantly, there are an increasing number of reliable ways--...2642Thu, 19 Sep 2024 11:44:01 +0000
