Gasser also recorded a season-high seven strikeouts across six scoreless innings. That more than doubled his...2193Wed, 29 May 2024 15:17:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/though-overpowered-tuesday-night-brewers-hitters-handle-high-velocity-very-well-r2197/To win anything important in MLB these days, you have to hit well against high-velocity fastballs. They're everywhere, but they're especially prominent when the game is on the line. The best pitching staffs have many pitchers who throw hard, and even the bad ones have a couple of guys who throw...2197Wed, 29 May 2024 14:32:05 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-potential-trade-partner-the-chicago-white-sox-r2194/It’s never too early to make a trade in hopes of bolstering your team. Just look at the Padres, who were able to trade for the Marlins' Luis Arráez earlier this month. For the most part, though, teams wait several weeks into each campaign before choosing and acting on a path forward, to find out...2194Wed, 29 May 2024 13:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/monday-was-a-great-glimpse-of-how-robert-gasser-can-be-a-star-r2192/Of the 186 pitchers who have faced at least 60 batters as a starter this year, only two have thrown a higher percentage of their pitches on the inner third of the plate (or off the plate inside) than the Brewers' Robert Gasser, who owns a dazzling stat line (1.96 ERA, no home runs, 13 strikeouts...2192Tue, 28 May 2024 16:25:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/should-tyler-black-be-milwaukees-left-fielder-of-the-present-and-future-r2190/Tyler Black has been a man without a position he can call home. Originally drafted as a second baseman and playing there in 2021, he split time between second base and center field in an injury-plagued 2022 season, before moving to the hot corner in a breakout 2023. He slid over to first base in...2190Tue, 28 May 2024 15:20:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-soul-snatchers-bryan-hudson-latest-brewer-to-bust-out-backdoor-sweeper-at-crucial-time-r2191/Only three other teams in baseball throw sweepers to opposite-handed batters with the same frequency as the Brewers. By both conventional wisdom and every available macro-level adjustment, the sweeper (which relies primarily on horizontal movement, taking it toward an opposite-handed batter and...2191Tue, 28 May 2024 11:58:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/welcome-craig-is-it-cubs-at-brewers-may-27-30-r2187/Milwaukee managed a bit of redemption on their way out of Boston, stealing two out of three against a very good set of pitchers and managing to have only one benches-clearing incident. Despite the lousy overall road trip, they return home to face the team closest to them in the division, with a...2187Mon, 27 May 2024 11:49:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/week-in-review-still-churning-still-chugging-along-r2186/Weekly Snapshot Record Last Week: 3-3 (30-21 Overall) Runs Scored: 23 Runs Surrendered: 16 Standing: 1st in NL Central (3.0 GA) *** Game 47 | MIA 3, MIL 2 Game 48 | MIL 7, MIA 5 Game 49 | MIA 1, MIL 0 Game 50 | MIL 7, BOS 2 Game 51 | MIL 6, BOS 3 Game 52 | BO...2186Mon, 27 May 2024 10:12:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/jared-koenig-is-an-insanely-valuable-luxury-for-the-brewers-bullpen-r2184/That Jared Koenig even made it back to MLB this year with the Brewers is a great story. That he's now established himself with solid performances, such that (while he remains one of the optionable arms who can occasionally be shuttled to Nashville to keep the bullpen fresh) he's a familiar and v...2184Sun, 26 May 2024 13:13:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/freddy-peraltas-keys-to-success-r2182/After a slew of rough outings, he was outstanding in seven innings against the Marlins. What did he do differently, and how can he keep it up? Most fans know how good Freddy Peralta can be when he’s at his best. 2021 was the best year of his career and saw him post a 2.81 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, an...2182Sun, 26 May 2024 11:55:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/episode-8-road-trip-blues-r2180/Jack and Spencer recap a tough start to the road trip, Pat Murphy’s decision-making in the Marlins series, Robert Gasser’s outlook, and more.

He's never broken out of that pattern. Last year, Contreras...2178Fri, 24 May 2024 11:55:02 +0000
