He burst onto the scene with one of the most thrilling and memorable moments of the season, with that grand slam in the home opener against the Mets. In large part, though, he was overmatched during...1601Wed, 18 Oct 2023 11:15:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/is-playoff-craig-counsell-a-lesser-beast-than-the-regular-season-version-r1589/It's a travesty that Craig Counsell hasn't won a Manager of the Year Award to this point. However, his postseason record is equally tragic. Counsell has a 1-5 series record in the playoffs (counting the one-game Wild Card contest in 2019), with his clubs losing nine of their last 10 games overal...1589Mon, 16 Oct 2023 11:13:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewer-fanatic-2023-awards-most-valuable-player-r1592/It’s nearly done to death at this point, but the Brewers acquiring William Contreras in a three-team trade with Oakland and Atlanta may have been one of the greatest trade steals in recent memory. And in his first season in a Brewer uniform, not only did Contreras not disappoint, but he was thei...1592Sun, 15 Oct 2023 11:15:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-josh-hader-trade-may-have-hurt-in-2022-but-its-present-future-are-bright-r1585/August 1, 2022, is a date that will live in infamy for many Brewers fans. The Brewers traded Josh Hader to the San Diego Padres for major league pitchers Taylor Rogers, Dinelson Lamet, and prospects Esteury Ruiz and Robert Gasser.

The operation and the required rehab will sideline Woodruff for all of 2024, which was to be his final season under club control. We should be upfront about that fact...1595Sat, 14 Oct 2023 12:11:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brandon-woodruff-undergoes-surgery-potentially-missing-all-of-2024-r1594/After a subscapular strain sent him to the 60-day IL in April, Brandon Woodruff returned to the major league roster in August, dominating and posting a 2.28 ERA and 0.82 WHIP over the 67 innings he could pitch. It seemed like he hadn’t lost a step, and he gave fans a glimpse of what could’ve bee...1594Fri, 13 Oct 2023 20:48:58 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-2023-milwaukee-brewers-pitcher-of-the-year-r1590/Satchel Paige once said, ‘My pitching philosophy is simple - keep the ball away from the bat.’ And in 2023, the Brewers pitching staff was good at doing just that. Final regular season NL team pitching stats had the Brewers sporting the following numbers: ERA: 3.71 (1st) ERA+: 116 (1st) WH...1590Fri, 13 Oct 2023 13:15:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-2023-milwaukee-brewers-most-improved-player-r1583/Christian Yelich Like the old metal slide at your local playground, Yelich was piping at the beginning of the summer. Despite his inability to sustain it through the remainder of the season, his overall slash line of .278/.370/.447 was a direct upgrade over his 2022 campaign, improving in ever...1583Thu, 12 Oct 2023 13:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-2023-milwaukee-brewers-unsung-hero-r1586/A large part of the Brewers success was due to these contributions, and some haven’t received the credit they deserve. Some key players receiving votes, but not quite cracking the top four, are Julio Teheran, Adrian Houser, Blake Perkins, Joey Wiemer, Joel Payamps and Wade Miley. In Miley’s case...1586Wed, 11 Oct 2023 16:26:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/with-whom-do-the-brewers-match-up-well-in-trades-this-winter-r1587/In today's game, free agency has sapped some of the imagination and interest from the trade market. Everyone goes shopping for their top talent on the open market.

However, injuries to Tyrone Taylor and Luis Urias resulted in rookies getting a lot of playing time very early. Six rookies saw extensive playing time for the Brewers, filling crucial roles...1556Tue, 10 Oct 2023 13:15:01 +0000
