If they maintain their .559 winning percentage, they will win 90.5 games this year. This is the first of a series of articles expl...2491Tue, 06 Aug 2024 23:15:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/inability-to-steal-first-base-stalling-out-brewers-attack-r2490/In the last 30 days, the Brewers are 10th in MLB in stolen base attempts. They've tried to steal 26 bases, and they've been caught on six of those attempts. Prior to Jul. 7, they were 121-for-143 stealing bases, so both their frequency of attempts and their success rate have sagged over the last...2490Tue, 06 Aug 2024 16:07:11 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-brewers-colin-rea-is-getting-more-outs-and-allowing-fewer-runs-with-less-swing-and-miss-r2489/It's not like Colin Rea was striking batters out at some elite, obviously unsustainable rate in the past. Last season, when he had a respectable but pedestrian 4.55 ERA, he got there with a strikeout rate right around the league average for starters; good control; and a lot of defensive support....2489Tue, 06 Aug 2024 11:53:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/pitch-recognition-issues-plaguing-brewers-brice-turang-r2488/His surface numbers have become really concerning over the last two months, and while part of this is an abnormally low BABIP for someone of Brice Turang's speed, there is some serious concern at this point. He’s not hitting the ball quite as solidly as he did earlier on, with a lower average ex...2488Mon, 05 Aug 2024 23:12:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/why-pat-murphy-was-unequivocally-right-to-remove-tobias-myers-sunday-r2486/It's never a good look when a manager removes a starting pitcher who appears to be cruising, while their pitch count remains low and the game is in the balance. That's what Pat Murphy did on Sunday, and when taking out Tobias Myers after five innings pitched and 64 pitches blew up with an immedi...2486Mon, 05 Aug 2024 11:50:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/week-in-review-stumbling-around-r2485/Weekly Snapshot Record Last Week: 2-4 (62-49 overall) Runs Scored: 27 Runs Surrendered: 27 Standing: 1st NL Central (5 GA) *** Game 106 | MIL 8, ATL 3 Game 107 | ATL 5, MIL 1 Game 108 | ATL 6, MIL 2 Game 109 | MIL 8, WSH 3 Game 110 | WSH 6, MIL 4 Game 111 | WSH 4, MIL 3 *** Tran...2485Sun, 04 Aug 2024 20:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-pitcher-of-the-month-july-2024-r2480/Honorable Mentions Jakob Junis 15.0 IP, 12 H, 4 ER, 2 BB, 9 K Unfortunately for Brewers fans, Junis was hitting a real post-IL stride before being sent off to the division rival Reds. His 2.40 ERA for the month was one of the best in the bullpen, and quite a few people had hoped he would b...2480Sun, 04 Aug 2024 18:20:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-brewers-that-got-away-r2483/At the 2024 All-Star Game, one of the more interesting names to pop up was Cleveland Guardian’s catcher/outfielder/first baseman David Fry. Seeing Fry was a bit of a gut punch. For those that don’t know, Fry was a middling prospect in the Brewers system before being dealt after the 2022 season f...2483Sun, 04 Aug 2024 14:32:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-hitter-of-the-month-july-2024-r2474/Honorable Mentions Eric Haase 31 PA, .345/.387/.655, 10 H, 3 HR, 4 R, 8 RBI, 2 BB, 13 K Haase had a small sample size of plate appearances but I felt that his performance was worth a brief mention. July was the first month he got major league at-bats with Milwaukee, and he made the most ou...2474Fri, 02 Aug 2024 19:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-ace-freddy-peralta-making-mysterious-changes-as-season-progresses-r2476/By now, you should be well aware that part of what makes Freddy Peralta special is his adaptability. The man once known as Fastball Freddy has become solidly four-pitch Freddy at times over the last two seasons. His slider is so manipulable and lethal that it effectively plays as four different...2476Fri, 02 Aug 2024 11:55:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/what-does-their-trade-deadline-say-about-brewers-plans-for-the-final-months-r2470/With many discussions going on behind the scenes, Matt Arnold decided to stick with the players they had offensively, while bolstering their pitching ranks with acquisitions of Frankie Montas, Aaron Civale and Nick Mears in the month of July. Mears is a Stuff+ darling with strong recent results,...2470Thu, 01 Aug 2024 15:07:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/i-was-really-hoping-jake-could-jump-into-this-jake-bauers-has-an-opportunity-to-be-the-left-handed-bat-the-brewers-need-r2471/It was a rough week for the Brewers’ offense to close out July, but one bright spot was a series of notable contributions from Jake Bauers. Starting in left field against the Marlins on Sunday, Bauers erased an early 1-0 deficit with a go-ahead home run in the bottom of the first inning. He...2471Thu, 01 Aug 2024 11:46:01 +0000
