Now sitting with the fourth-best record in baseball, Milwaukee...4557Sat, 23 May 2026 13:49:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/david-hamiltons-little-league-home-run-showed-something-significant-r4556/David Hamilton just broke out in the Milwaukee Brewers’ three-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. This is somebody with a unique but beneficial skillset, so today, we’ll dive into what kind of role he could play for Pat Murphy’s squad when he’s at his best.  Background Real q...4556Fri, 22 May 2026 15:15:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/forum-friday-contract-extensions-out-getters-and-needle-movers-r4559/What a difference a week makes! Last Friday, Milwaukee was 2.5 games behind Chicago for the division lead. Today, the Brewers enjoy a 1.5-game lead over the Cubs. Come join the discussion with three of the best thread topics on Brewer Fanatic. Brewers: Harrison Extensio...4559Fri, 22 May 2026 14:19:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/abner-uribe-hasnt-found-his-slider-and-its-limiting-his-effectiveness-r4558/He has pitched better than his 4.42 ERA suggests, but even from a process standpoint, Abner Uribe hasn’t been the dominant late-inning force he was last season. His 3.60 FIP, 3.37 SIERA, and 92 DRA- look more like the ERA estimators of a solid middle reliever, not a high-leverage arm. His 25.3%...4558Fri, 22 May 2026 11:56:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/william-contrerass-power-isnt-back-where-has-it-gone-r4555/William Contreras played a portion of 2024 and all of 2025 with a fracture in his left middle finger, causing discomfort that affected his game. We know that. He underwent surgery in November to address it, because he and the Brewers felt that the injury had lingered and prevented him from being...4555Thu, 21 May 2026 22:12:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/is-there-any-hope-left-for-joey-ortizs-offense-r4551/Joey Ortiz still plays defense well enough to justify meaningful innings in Milwaukee’s infield. His hands remain quick, his versatility still carries value, and there are managers who would live for years with a light bat if the glove compensates for it at a premium position. The problem f...4551Thu, 21 May 2026 15:45:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/a-risk-averse-garrett-mitchell-is-not-finishing-the-job-in-center-field-r4553/Garrett Mitchell owes many of his continued opportunities as the Brewers’ starting center fielder to his high ceiling. When he’s clicking, no position player on the 40-man roster has the potential to be a more explosive player. Part of what makes Mitchell so polarizing is that his shortcomings a...4553Thu, 21 May 2026 11:39:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/what-has-led-to-kyle-harrisons-breakout-season-r4536/The Milwaukee Brewers' pitching lab strikes again. Stop me if you’ve heard that one before. Mere months after they traded for Kyle Harrison in a deal that involved Caleb Durbin and the rest of this team’s former third base depth chart, they've watched the young left-hander emerge as a vital part...4536Wed, 20 May 2026 20:08:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/pat-murphy-wants-to-have-one-position-open-for-jett-williams-its-pretty-clear-which-one-r4552/It's starting to wear on Pat Murphy. He can't let it show, but when you ask him about Jett Williams, you can see him working not to betray the eagerness he feels for the arrival of his next dynamic two-way weapon. It's just a question of when and how to best introduce him to the majors—and what...4552Wed, 20 May 2026 16:03:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/say-hello-to-gravitron-kyle-harrison-is-flattening-hitters-with-tilt-r4550/When people ask Chris Hook about Kyle Harrison, he talks up the fact that Harrison has a low arm angle. He says it gives his pitches deceptive movement, especially when he can find lift on his fastball. But Harrison had a low arm angle (27°) last year, when he was an up-and-down guy and was trad...4550Wed, 20 May 2026 11:58:17 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/aaron-ashby-and-the-pursuit-of-quirky-baseball-history-r4545/When a starter builds an 8-0 record, it usually signals a Cy Young contender. When a reliever does it, the achievement carries a different tone. It's usually a mildly interesting statistical aberration, because it's usually a reliever's record at the end of a full season. Only five relievers hav...4545Tue, 19 May 2026 22:13:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/shane-drohan-goes-to-splitsville-r4548/Although his debut in Boston went pear-shaped, Shane Drohan has been pretty darn good ever since. He got the win after pitching 4 1/3 strong innings of relief Monday night at Wrigley Field, and now has a 1.47 ERA in seven appearances since his return to the majors on April 24. In that span, he's...4548Tue, 19 May 2026 17:29:54 +0000
