It wasn't just about advancing in the postseason; it was also about proving that their supremacy in the NL Central was real and complete. It was energizing, for many, to see the team hold up an 'L' flag...4289Mon, 16 Mar 2026 17:33:13 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/spring-temperature-check-whos-hot-and-whos-cold-in-brewers-camp-march-13-15-r4283/The days in Arizona are growing short for the Milwaukee Brewers.

His health and production are critical to the Brewers’ success in 2026, and reuniting him with an old friend as a backup should provide a very...4278Sun, 15 Mar 2026 22:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/spring-temperature-check-whos-hot-and-whos-cold-in-brewers-camp-march-9-12-r4264/When the first night game of the Cactus League happens, you know spring training is starting to wind down and Opening Day is right around the corner. That night game happened Thursday. While wins and losses aren't important in spring training, player performances are.

Sidearmers and submariners are famous for sticking together, but as Waguespack noted, that's because most of them had to relearn to throw—as, for instance, Grant Anderson did durin...4273Wed, 11 Mar 2026 19:21:34 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-big-fellas-luke-adams-brock-wilken-gear-up-for-crucial-campaigns-r4267/In the Brewers' spring training clubhouse in Maryvale, there's a back exit that takes players to the weight room, batting cages and other key areas for morning work.
