The Brewers’ first baseman has looked calm, cool, and collected up there and is on pace for some career power numbers while being one of the better overall hitters on Pat Murphy’s squad. Today, we’ll dive into what Bauers is doing differently...4589Sun, 31 May 2026 14:04:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/forum-friday-dodger-blues-fading-frelick-lara-is-looming-r4584/Milwaukee swept St. Louis and now enjoys a four-game lead in the division. Just prior to that, however, the Brewers dropped their series against Los Angeles. Are the Dodgers a mental barrier for Milwaukee?

Robert Gasser saw his pitches being highlighted on Saturday by Andy Pages from second base. It appeared that Pages was able to gain an idea of what pitch was coming, giving Teoscar Hernandez all the information he n...4580Fri, 29 May 2026 11:50:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-same-sweep-fifteen-years-later-the-brewers-break-st-louis-again-r4577/There is a particular kind of happiness in baseball that has no equivalent in other sports. It's not the euphoria of a touchdown or a last-second goal. It's something slower and more settled—more like finding an old letter in a drawer you hadn't opened in years. Baseball allows for that luxury:...4577Thu, 28 May 2026 15:10:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-the-brewers-co-aces-are-taking-baseball-by-storm-with-their-fastballs-r4578/As he manages a staff of young starters, Pat Murphy frequently muses aloud about how pitching development and strategy have evolved throughout his time in baseball. "In the old days, guys would come out and throw their heater the first time around because they could locate their heater," Mu...4578Thu, 28 May 2026 11:11:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/baseball-semantics-101-why-the-brewers-cardinals-sore-festered-and-who-if-anyone-is-right-r4575/Abner Uribe is, in one reading of all this, just that loud person at the party who no longer has any desire to let some quiet tensions simmer. Maybe they actually challenge someone to step outside and take care of things, but more often, they say something they know will stir up what they feel h...4575Wed, 27 May 2026 21:41:35 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/william-contreras-is-having-what-could-be-a-historic-season-as-a-preventer-of-stolen-bases-r4572/When Shohei Ohtani took off for second base Friday night, it was hard to like William Contreras's chances. Ohtani has proved to be a very efficient basestealer, and he's very fast. On the mound, rookie Logan Henderson was focused on executing a good pitch, and wasn't very quick to the plate. Giv...4572Tue, 26 May 2026 22:01:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/while-you-sat-in-awe-of-his-fastball-jacob-misiorowski-broke-out-a-true-slider-monday-r4571/It was hard not to give all one's attention to Jacob Misiorowski's fastball on Monday. There's never been such an overpowering arm; he's bullying hitters with an utterly unprecedented heater. He threw 59 pitches with a perceived velocity (the raw velocity, plus an adjustment for his elite extens...4571Tue, 26 May 2026 11:56:09 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/sal-frelick-has-to-get-the-head-back-out-there-r4568/There are lots of ways to get on base, and at his best, Sal Frelick is adept at all of them. He'll take a walk—and, indeed, is walking more this year than in either of his previous two full seasons. He's not exceptional at getting hit by pitches, but nor is he afraid to do so. When he swings, he...4568Mon, 25 May 2026 14:01:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/after-another-uncompetitive-start-robert-gasser-is-out-of-the-rotation-but-brandon-sproat-has-a-longer-leash-r4566/After a trio of young Brewers starting pitchers did not allow a run for three straight games, the tides turned over the weekend in a series loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. In the last two games of the series, Milwaukee pitchers issued 17 walks and hit a batter.

They are building it around an entire laboratory of elite weapons. While much of MLB remains obsessed with pure velocity or extreme “stuff” arsenals, Milwaukee is developing something far more complex: a colle...4562Sun, 24 May 2026 14:00:15 +0000
