Luis Rengifo, a versatile defender who stole 24 bases in a limited 2024 season, has agreed to a one-year, $3.5 million contract with the...4174Fri, 13 Feb 2026 22:30:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-return-of-el-gar-gary-sanchez-brings-power-to-brewers-bench-coverage-at-catcher-r4167/There was a time when Gary Sanchez was only valuable because of his ability to hit home runs. When you hit at least 30 homers twice for the New York Yankees, your hype train will be out of control. But Sanchez, who returned to the Milwaukee Brewers as a backup catcher on a one-year, $1.75 m...4167Fri, 13 Feb 2026 12:50:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/william-contreras-brewers-avoid-arbitration-hearing-with-94-million-deal-r4170/For the second year in a row, the catcher William Contreras and the Milwaukee Brewers came to a last-minute deal to avoid an arbitration hearing. Contreras and the Crew settled on a one-year, $9.4 million contract for 2026 with a $14,5 million club option for 2027.

Like fellow top-5 vote-getter Isaac Collins, Durbin is now gone. The Brewers included him in a trade, along with...4153Thu, 12 Feb 2026 15:35:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-brewers-are-buying-into-shane-drohans-upside-at-the-right-time-r4169/Kyle Harrison is the more recognizable of the two left-handed pitchers the Brewers acquired from the Red Sox in the Caleb Durbin trade earlier this week.

As they opened camp to pitchers and catchers Wednesday, the team answered the question more forcefully than they had to that point, signing old friend Gary Sánchez to a one-year deal wort...4166Wed, 11 Feb 2026 18:51:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/pecota-hates-the-brewers-again-and-is-especially-rude-to-brice-turang-r4164/Baseball Prospectus posted their PECOTA projections for 2026 on Tuesday, including projected standings and playoff odds.

That came with Monday's trade, in which the Crew shipped three infielders (led by starting third baseman Caleb Durbin) and a draft pick to the Bosto...4161Tue, 10 Feb 2026 23:03:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-trade-of-caleb-durbin-raises-more-questions-than-it-answers-r4160/Caleb Durbin’s long-term future with the Brewers was likely to be a supporting role, rather than a multi-year residency as the starting third baseman. While his 105 wRC+ and 2.6 fWAR as a rookie demonstrated his high floor, Durbin was unlikely to improve upon that production.
