Having posted a 3.38 ERA in 122 ⅓ innings this year, Rea has deservedly garnered recognition as the Brewers’ most reliable starting pitcher as the team has navigated a sea of injuries and inconsistency. He is, as strange as it feels, the...2513Tue, 13 Aug 2024 11:48:10 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/do-the-brewers-have-a-fip-problem-r2510/After more than 1,000 innings of baseball, the Brewers have a team ERA of 3.74, the fourth-best in baseball and just 0.02 higher than the second-place Phillies. It has been an area of strength for the past few years, and has helped make up for a relatively weak lineup during long stretches of th...2510Mon, 12 Aug 2024 16:19:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/dl-hall-showed-in-return-outing-that-he-can-still-help-the-brewers-r2508/The innings pitched and run columns in DL Hall’s pitching line on Sunday were unassuming: three earned runs in four-and-two-thirds innings. His first big-league appearance since April 20 featured a handful of positives, though. “I thought it was really encouraging,” Pat Murphy said. “T...2508Mon, 12 Aug 2024 11:50:08 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/week-in-review-the-best-yet-r2507/Weekly Snapshot Record Last Week: 5-1 (67-50) Runs Scored: 46 Runs Surrendered: 19 Standing: 1st NL Central (8.0 GA) *** Game 112 | MIL 10, ATL 0 Game 113 | MIL 8, ATL 5 Game 114 | MIL 16, ATL 7 Game 115 | MIL 8, CIN 3 Game 116 | MIL 1, CIN 0 Game 117 | CIN 4, MIL 3...2507Sun, 11 Aug 2024 21:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/in-a-fully-healthy-brewers-playoff-lineup-who-bats-where-r2505/Constructing a lineup isn’t strictly science – and it's not just a numbers game. At times in 2017 and 2018, the Brewers had Eric Thames leading off. Thames could get on base, but he was arguably a misfit for the top spot, both for what he didn’t have (speed) and what he had (power). So, how coul...2505Sun, 11 Aug 2024 15:10:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/four-interesting-stats-helping-the-brewers-to-the-nl-central-lead-r2502/A few bad or average weeks for the offense or the pitching staff can feel like the sky is falling, but then you look up, and the Brewers are still 18 games over .500 for the season. They’ve done it without ever getting white hot. Milwaukee’s longest winning streak is five games, and their best 1...2502Sun, 11 Aug 2024 11:58:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/as-their-offense-surges-the-brewers-defense-keeps-contributing-to-wins-r2503/After weathering their first losing month of the regular season and starting August with a series loss, the Brewers have come roaring back with four straight authoritative wins. The Brewers have scored 42 runs in that span. They’ve scored at least eight runs in each game, the latest of which was...2503Sat, 10 Aug 2024 14:12:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/a-rested-william-contreras-is-back-to-punishing-pitchers-r2501/We can almost break William Contreras' season down into three segments, with total and utter dominance in the first six weeks, followed by a heavy slump over the next two months. Still, he’s been under the radar effectively since the All-Star break, and it may be coming at just the right time.

After a strong series in Atlanta as part of his team’s three-game drubbing of the Braves, Adames is slashing .252/.335/.452, with 20 home runs, 27 doubles, and the best walk-to-strikeout ratio (0.46) of...2498Fri, 09 Aug 2024 11:57:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/decision-time-looms-on-dl-hall-others-but-brewers-have-none-but-champagne-problems-r2496/It could be that, when the Brewers return home Friday to face the Reds and try to oust the last gasps of hope Cincinnati retains to come back in the NL Central, they have at their disposal yet another impressive left-handed hurler. DL Hall has made a number of rehab appearances, on a stop-and-st...2496Thu, 08 Aug 2024 11:07:37 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/can-garrett-mitchell-be-the-lefty-bat-the-brewers-lineup-needs-r2494/The sample is tiny. That's always one problem where evaluating Garrett Mitchell is concerned. He's batting .290/.372/.420 for the Brewers so far this year, but that's in just 78 plate appearances, after he missed the first three months of the season with a broken bone in his hand. If it wasn't f...2494Wed, 07 Aug 2024 14:18:54 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-hitters-made-needed-adjustments-in-repeat-matchup-against-bryce-elder-r2492/The Brewers enjoyed a much-needed blowout win on Tuesday night, opening their series against the Braves in Atlanta with a 10-0 showing behind big nights from Willy Adames and Colin Rea. It was Milwaukee’s first double-digit run output since Jun. 7, and seven of those runs scored against starter...2492Wed, 07 Aug 2024 11:14:01 +0000
