Part of that, to be sure, is Murphy's willing...1918Tue, 12 Mar 2024 11:33:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-position-season-preview-gary-sanchez-willson-contreras/With Carlos Santana and Mark Canha gone, the Brewers are trying to figure out how to use their designated hitter throughout the season. Just about anyone can fill that role on the Brewers roster. After a long offseason of searching for power bats, one late edition, though it took a long while fo...1897Mon, 11 Mar 2024 14:18:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/jakob-junis-aims-for-unpredictability-by-emphasizing-glove-side-sinkers-r1916/The Brewers hope that what they saw from Jakob Junis on Sunday was a preview of what they can expect in the regular season. Junis worked four hitless innings against the Colorado Rockies. The pitch mix he used to get there mirrored the game plan he deployed as a San Francisco Giant last yea...1916Mon, 11 Mar 2024 11:51:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-rotation-preview-jakob-junis-aaron-ashby-robert-gasser-dl-hall/“Don’t cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.” Surely, the author of that quote wasn’t addressing the Brewers’ three-headed monster in the rotation, but they might as well have been. Corbin Burnes now resides in Baltimore, while Brandon Woodruff will spend most of his time o...1915Sun, 10 Mar 2024 12:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-free-agent-pitchers-mike-clevinger-michael-lorenzen/We are just a few short weeks away from opening day, and the 26-man roster is becoming more apparent by the day. Yet we’ve learned the Brewers are monitoring the starting pitcher market. The other day, we looked at a few players that fit the bill Robert Murray suggested on his Baseball Insi...1912Sat, 09 Mar 2024 15:15:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-right-way-to-project-milwaukee-brewers-opening-day-roster-is-to-stop-trying-r1914/We've already run a couple of Opening Day roster projections for the Brewers on this site. I like doing those. I have scribbled down about 100 lineups for the 2024 Brewers, over the long time desert of this winter--killing time while on hold to pay a bill, or during halftime of a Packers game, o...1914Sat, 09 Mar 2024 12:28:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-third-base-2024-andruw-monasterio-tyler-black-joey-ortiz/The “Incumbent” Starter: Andruw Monasterio 2023 Stats: .258/.330/.348, 14 2B, 3 HR, 1.3 WAR, 87 OPS+ 2024 Projection: .260/.333/.382, 16 2B, 7 HR (Baseball-Reference.com) Andruw Monasterio is one of those unheralded prospects who became a cult hero to Brewers fans. In 2023, he got the call-up...1878Fri, 08 Mar 2024 16:14:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/dl-hall-made-a-key-slider-adjustment-last-summer-and-perhaps-another-one-this-spring-r1911/In the first half of 2023, DL Hall was a pretty good pitcher, but he wasn't at full strength. After coming to spring training with an injury to his lower back that required careful maintenance, he was handled with kid gloves early in the Triple-A season, then sent back to the team's complex in F...1911Fri, 08 Mar 2024 14:07:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-spring-breakout-roster-who-will-become-a-star-r1913/In case you haven’t heard, Spring Breakout is a new minor league showcase that aims to spotlight the game’s most exciting up-and-coming talent. Over the course of four days, each major-league team will field a roster of its top prospects to play against each other, on the same day and at the sam...1913Fri, 08 Mar 2024 12:10:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/5-mid-tier-starting-pitchers-the-brewers-can-add-before-opening-day-r1909/Just when you thought the Brewers could be done this offseason, another rumor rose to the surface. After a busy offseason, the Brewers' rotation will have a new look. Corbin Burnes is out, and DL Hall is in. Even after bringing back Wade Miley, Colin Rea, and Brandon Woodruff, adding Jakob...1909Thu, 07 Mar 2024 14:17:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/why-sal-frelicks-infield-experiment-could-end-in-the-regular-season-r1910/Since the Brewers revealed at the beginning of spring training that Sal Frelick would receive reps as an infielder in exhibition play, there’s been more and more evidence suggesting the club wants him to be a legitimate option at third base--rather than an in-case-of-emergency choice. Freli...1910Thu, 07 Mar 2024 12:49:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/an-assemblage-of-imperfect-pieces-the-brewers-strive-for-completeness-r1908/The greatest sin in baseball managing is to be confined to a single plan. If you don't know what you're going to do when the thing you most want to do doesn't work, you're doomed, before the game even begins. Pat Murphy cuts a sometimes comic figure, and his age militates against anyone thinking...1908Wed, 06 Mar 2024 14:13:02 +0000
