At this moment, the Brewers (who started 14-5, against what looked like a formidable early slate!) are barely over .500, and they’re staring up at the Pirates in t...1131Thu, 15 Jun 2023 12:55:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-2-twins-4-land-of-10000-ls-r1134/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Colin Rea - 5.0 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, 90 pitches, 56 strikes (62.2%) Home Runs: Brian Anderson (9), Luis Urias (1) Top 3 WPA: Luis Urias (.070), Hoby Milner (.027), Bryse Wilson (.021)  Bottom 3 WPA: Colin Rea (-.269), Owen Miller (-.112), Willy Adames (-.093...1134Wed, 14 Jun 2023 20:22:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/when-no-news-is-not-good-news-r1130/The real bad news is what Brewers fans haven’t heard anything about: To wit: whether or not the Brewers will be looking for a new manager in the offseason. There is no word on whether Craig Counsell will still be wearing the blue and gold of the Brewers.
