He's done everything he can for the 2023 Brewers. To fit him onto a playoff roster would require the team to prefer him to both Adrian Houser and Andrew Chafin, and Elvis Peguero to be unable to return when the playoffs begin next week. It's just roster...1554Sat, 30 Sep 2023 12:07:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-postseason-roster-outlook-the-bench-r1533/Bench construction is not an exact science. Some players will be obvious locks for the bench. Others will be there because they start a fair bit of the time. Still others will be on the bubble. So, who will be filling which role? We are going to assume that the Brewers will take 12 pitchers into...1533Fri, 29 Sep 2023 16:14:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/destination-the-show-episode-7-r1552/In this episode, Jeremy, JD and Theo discuss whether the Twins last World Series was in 1987 or 1991, whether the team is fraudulent, and show some love for an amazing Twins themed YouTube passion project. The fellas walk through the prospects the Twins, Cubs and Brewers sent to the Arizona Fall...1552Fri, 29 Sep 2023 15:15:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/can-two-ground-ball-hitters-be-the-engines-of-a-world-series-champion-r1551/The Brewers are, offensively, a unique team. Their two best hitters, Christian Yelich and William Contreras, are both extreme ground-ball guys. That sounds like a relatively small quirk, but often, power wins out in October. Can a team fueled by two guys who so consistently hit the ball on the g...1551Fri, 29 Sep 2023 14:02:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-postseason-roster-outlook-rotation-r1547/Thanks to a very strange schedule for the NLDS that has three off days in a best-of-five series, there's a way for the Brewers not to need a fourth starter unless and until the NLCS. It's still likely that they need a fourth, but it might be in a limited capacity. Let's dig into the options....1547Fri, 29 Sep 2023 12:18:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/what-can-you-expect-from-the-brewers-now-the-division-is-clinched-r1548/The Brewers sealed their third NL Central title in the last six years on Tuesday night, with the Cubs' sudden and ghastly loss against the rolling Atlanta Braves. It was all but sewn up, but that final nudge makes a huge difference in just how relaxed the Brewers can be over the final few days o...1548Thu, 28 Sep 2023 18:22:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-postseason-roster-outlook-outfield-and-designated-hitter-r1527/We can put those outfielders who are on the 40-man roster into three groups: Those definitely on the roster, those who will be on the bubble, and those who probably will not be in the dugout. So, who falls into which category? Stats are as of the morning of September 20. The Locks Chri...1527Thu, 28 Sep 2023 16:07:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-brewers-should-go-bold-add-a-new-top-prospect-to-the-playoff-roster-r1549/With the opening round of the playoffs featuring a maximum of three games, teams like the Brewers can be creative with their roster construction. With plenty of pitching in tow, they can look to ride the hot hand for an extra stick-swinging weapon on the bench. That guy is Brewers Minor League C...1549Thu, 28 Sep 2023 12:14:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/with-true-team-baseball-the-brewers-claim-a-well-earned-division-title-r1546/One of the unhappy byproducts of the revolution in the understanding of baseball over the last 40 years is that, as the knowledge first shouted from rooftops by outsiders has suffused front offices and ownership suites and trickled down to dugouts, the game has been reduced to fit into the neat...1546Wed, 27 Sep 2023 12:22:08 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-postseason-roster-outlook-infield-r1541/At three of the four around-the-horn infield positions, the Brewers will enter the playoffs with a substantially different situation than we would have projected coming into the season. That they've gotten this far despite some enforced changes of plans is a testament to their organizational dep...1541Tue, 26 Sep 2023 17:11:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/why-a-healthy-christian-yelich-changes-everything-in-october-r1543/Any successful October offense needs a leader--the man who delivers the big hit or just forces the opposing pitching staff into the stretch seemingly every time he comes up. The Brewers' highest-paid player is that kind of guy, when he's right. The question is whether he will be. What He Ca...1543Tue, 26 Sep 2023 14:14:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-grateful-for-the-dh-rule-in-october-because-it-helps-their-elite-pitching-r1545/During the Brewers' last postseason appearance, the National League did not have the DH. For a team that relied on its elite pitching, one would have thought that gave Milwaukee an additional advantage when facing better lineups. On the contrary, though, the lack of a DH came back to haunt the B...1545Tue, 26 Sep 2023 13:00:02 +0000
