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 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/a-check-on-the-standings-and-the-playoff-scenarios-for-the-brewers-r1540/A wild weekend shook up the race for the final two Wild Card spots in the National League--in feel, if not in fact. The Diamondbacks still hold the second Wild Card position, but their lead over the Cubs is just half a game, after Chicago swept the Rockies at Wrigley Field. Thanks to two days of...1540Mon, 25 Sep 2023 12:53:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/twenty-six-for-october-projecting-the-brewers-playoff-roster-r1536/Based on recent games, call-ups, and demotions, here is one man’s prediction based on the semi-cloudy crystal ball on a dining room table somewhere in Port Edwards, WI. CATCHER William Contreras Victor Caratini This is the easiest position to predict, as iron man Contreras has appeare...1536Sun, 24 Sep 2023 12:57:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-the-evolution-of-freddy-peralta-made-him-the-new-ace-of-the-brewers-r1537/If they don't change anything over the final week, the Brewers will have Corbin Burnes lined up to pitch Game 1 of the National League Wild Card Series a week from Tuesday, with Brandon Woodruff set to go in Game 2 and Freddy Peralta pitching either Game 3 of that series or (if the Brewers win t...1537Sun, 24 Sep 2023 12:53:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-2023-milwaukee-brewers-are-officially-postseason-bound-r1534/  It's not the milestone the Brewers are aiming for. They'll wait until their next win (or the next Cubs loss) to line the clubhouse with plastic and don the ski goggles for champagne sprays and beer showers. They want the NL Central crown, and they'll have it. They want the NL pennant, and...1534Sat, 23 Sep 2023 13:02:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-brewers-defense-is-carving-a-place-in-history-r1530/After their win Thursday in St. Louis, the Brewers distributed a postgame note mentioning that the team has allowed nine or fewer hits in 26 straight games. Not since the 1968 Orioles--the consummate dynasty built on pitching and defense, in the Year of the Pitcher--has any team gone 27 games wi...1530Fri, 22 Sep 2023 15:18:02 +0000
