By declining his side of a mutual option in the deal he signed with the Brewers prior to 2023, then, he...1636Mon, 06 Nov 2023 15:06:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/what-the-mark-canha-trade-tells-us-about-the-brewers-offseason-plans-r1634/It shouldn't surprise us that the Brewers elected not to pay Mark Canha $11.5 million for 2024. Just under a year ago, they traded Hunter Renfroe (a similarly valuable but limited player who was set to earn a similar salary via arbitration) to the Angels. They believe they can find and acquire a...1634Sun, 05 Nov 2023 12:08:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/news-brewers-trade-mark-canha-to-the-detroit-tigers-for-minor-league-pitcher-r1633/Having clearly decided not to bring back Mark Canha for $11.5 million, the Brewers decided instead to bolster an already strong pitching farm system by adding Blake Holub, who posted a 3.79 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 40 ⅓ innings with the Erie SeaWolves in Double A. He was often used in later inning...1633Sat, 04 Nov 2023 18:05:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-bring-back-colin-rea-stabilizing-back-end-of-2024-starting-rotation-r1629/The deal that will bring Colin Rea back for another season includes $3.5 million in salary, $500,000 in performance-based incentives and a club option for 2025. The club option is worth $5.5 million, with a $1-million buyout. Rea originally joined the team on a minor-league deal in 2023 (after a...1629Fri, 03 Nov 2023 04:47:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/destination-the-show-episode-11-r1627/The World Series concluded while we were recording. What better time to reflect on each organizations top prospects? As we get ready to enter the offseason, JD and Jeremy break down the Just Baseball Top 100 Prospects list in depth, digging into 2023 numbers for Tyler Black, Luis Lara, Jeferson...1627Thu, 02 Nov 2023 15:15:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/hey-want-to-pick-over-the-bones-of-the-world-series-losing-diamondbacks-r1628/As underwhelming as Jordan Lawlar's first cup of coffee in the big leagues was, he's likely to be the starting shortstop for Arizona on Opening Day in 2024. His speed and power are dazzling, and he could be an impactful defender at the most important position on the infield. Since Ketel Marte wa...1628Thu, 02 Nov 2023 11:13:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/does-bringing-back-carlos-santana-make-sense-for-the-brewers-r1625/It wasn't Carlos Santana's glove that made him most attractive to the Brewers at last year's trade deadline. The team needed an infusion of power that didn't come with a nullifying sub-.300 on-base percentage. That's a specialty for Santana, who has spent a decade and a half drifting around MLB,...1625Wed, 01 Nov 2023 12:10:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/should-the-brewers-pursue-a-high-end-starting-pitcher-in-free-agency-this-winter-r1621/With Brandon Woodruff on the shelf for 2024, there is a glaring hole in the formerly formidable Brewers starting rotation. Corbin Burnes and Freddy Peralta were stout on the bump in 2023, and they form the spine of a fine starting corps for next season. Take out Woodruff, though, and a daunting...1621Mon, 30 Oct 2023 13:07:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/who-should-emerge-as-the-brewers-top-outfielders-in-2024-r1619/Obviously, in a perfect world, Jackson Chourio would simply hammer big-league pitching next spring training. Were he relentlessly competent and dominant enough, he could force his way onto the Opening Day roster as the center fielder, leaving the team with clarity at two of the three outfield po...1619Sat, 28 Oct 2023 11:12:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/matching-up-with-the-orioles-in-a-trade-for-a-big-bat-r1617/There are several ways the Brewers and the Baltimore Orioles can fit together well on a trade this winter. Coming off a 100-win season that only led to a disappointing Division Series ouster, the O's will be looking for ways to further shore up their roster for the long slog back through the AL...1617Fri, 27 Oct 2023 11:20:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-craig-counsell-situation-is-coming-to-a-head-r1615/It's no surprise to anyone that the Mets, having so recently officially hired David Stearns to run their baseball operations department, are interested in Craig Counsell. According to reporting by The Athletic, the Cleveland Guardians are at least feeling out Counsell, as well. It sounds odd to...1615Thu, 26 Oct 2023 12:45:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/willy-adamess-fastball-folly-and-the-future-of-the-brewers-lineup-r1612/It was an uneven season for Willy Adames. As much as his consistent defense at shortstop meant to the team, his streaks and slumps at bat added to the Brewers' difficulty in generating runs. Adames hit .217/.310/.407 on the year, which constituted a slight uptick in OBP from 2022 but a major pow...1612Wed, 25 Oct 2023 11:06:02 +0000
