The Brewers are in a funk at the moment, and seem desperate for the All-Star break to arrive yet again. However, the problem remains: After this five-day respit...2394Mon, 15 Jul 2024 13:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/week-in-review-sliding-into-the-break-r2395/Weekly Snapshot Record Last Week: 2-4 (55-42 Overall) Runs Scored: 26 Runs Surrendered: 27 Standing: 1st NL Central (4.5 GA) *** Game 92 | PIT 12, MIL 2 Game 93 | MIL 9, PIT 0 Game 94 | PIT 1, MIL 0 Game 95 | WSH 5, MIL 2 Game 96 | WSH 6, MIL 5 Game 97 ...2395Sun, 14 Jul 2024 21:15:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/better-days-should-lie-ahead-for-hoby-milner-r2388/Hoby Milner has allowed 13 runs in his last 11 ⅔ innings of work, inflating his season ERA to 4.81.

Can the Brewers go into the All-Star break holding their spot atop the NL Central, or do the Nationals prove...2384Fri, 12 Jul 2024 15:12:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/william-contreras-art-of-framing-setups-signals/Pitch framing was the first huge, game-changing insight we gained when PITCHf/x started capturing data on every pitch thrown in MLB, over 15 years ago.

With a 5.5-game lead over the second-place Cardinals and a record of 54-39, things are looking pret...2379Thu, 11 Jul 2024 14:31:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/undaunted-brewers-continue-pushing-ahead-r2378/The yellow signs adorned lockers throughout the Brewers clubhouse on Wednesday afternoon. Undaunted, read the all-caps heading, followed by a definition beneath the underlined term: Not intimidated or discouraged by difficulty, danger, or disappointment.

It takes the average exit velocity of batted balls within the launch angle band from 10 to 35 degrees (line drives an...2376Wed, 10 Jul 2024 23:05:10 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/willy-adames-has-a-broken-swing-and-worse-he-knows-it-r2375/In an ugly loss Tuesday night, the silver lining was a 1-for-3 night from Willy Adames, including a double and a walk. It was a sign of life, amid what has been a desert of production for the slugger. He's lived a tale of two seasons this year. Through May 31, he was hitting .256/.335/.453, with...2375Wed, 10 Jul 2024 15:15:34 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-pitchers-are-attacking-hitters-with-an-unintimidating-but-diverse-mix-of-fastballs-r2373/After losing co-aces Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff over the offseason, the Brewers entered the season prepared to deploy a mix-and-match approach to their pitching staff.

To replace him, Eric Haase was called back up, and he's performed admirably in Sánchez's stead, slashing .455/.455/.727 over his 11 plate appearances with the team so far.
