Obviously, it's not ideal to lose a start or two by Corbin Burnes, who seems to be rounding back into Cy Young form just in time for the stretch run. On the other hand, keepin...1260Sat, 15 Jul 2023 13:00:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-1-reds-0-milwaukee-takes-round-one-of-central-showdown-r1259/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Corbin Burnes - 6.0 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 2 BB, 13 K, 102 pitches, 64 strikes (62.7%) Home Runs: None Top 3 WPA: Corbin Burnes (.374), Devin Williams (.223), Joel Payamps (.152)  Bottom 3 WPA: Andruw Monasterio (-.181), Christian Yelich (-.121), Brice Turang (-.110) ...1259Sat, 15 Jul 2023 11:03:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/3-brewers-second-half-storylines-that-may-make-or-break-october-r1257/Standoff In The NL Central Ever since Cincinnati called up Elly De La Cruz and brought Joey Votto back from the IL, they've gone on a tear, having an incredible month of June that included a 12-game win streak.

Elvis Peguero, Joel Payamps and Devin Williams have vastly exceeded expectations, and been lights out in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings.

This isn’t success due to batted-ball luck (a BABIP of .311 is more than reasonable), and his xFIP of 3.07 is brilliant...1252Wed, 12 Jul 2023 16:11:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/some-positive-stats-for-each-milwaukee-brewers-position-player-r1246/Christian Yelich - Outs Above Average 2023 OAA: 3 (85th percentile) 2022 OAA: -5 (12th percentile) Christian Yelich isn’t quite a defensive mastermind.

When extreme power is shown in the lower minors, that can get caught out at higher levels, because of huge, hacking swings at the ball.

Earning a 60-grade from MLB scouts, it boasts a spin rate of ~3,000 RPMs and will continue to develop.
