The impending free agent has attracted a vast number of suitors, due to his paltry $8-million salary in 2026 and off the back of his third straight...4099Tue, 20 Jan 2026 12:55:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/the-brewers-are-right-in-giving-joey-ortiz-another-chance-r4094/While Joey Ortiz may have tested his manager’s patience with his poor plate discipline throughout a trying 2025 season, the Brewers continued to give him a long leash as their everyday shortstop. It seems there’s still plenty of slack left on that leash, as president of baseball operations Matt...4094Sun, 18 Jan 2026 13:16:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/looking-back-here-are-the-top-5-brewers-transactions-of-the-2025-season-r4086/The Brewers' offseason has been - in a word - quiet - as we wait in anticipation for the Freddy Peralta trade that feels inevitable. The Brewers are masters of improving on the margins and making seemingly small (or even tiny) moves that result in acquiring players with an outsized impact on the...4086Sat, 17 Jan 2026 12:53:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/will-brewers-sign-a-veteran-backup-catcher-while-they-still-have-the-chance-r4088/But for a devastating shoulder injury, Jeferson Quero would already have made his major-league debut. He would even be a natural fit as the Brewers' backup catcher for 2026, and perhaps he'd have done enough that the team would have more seriously considered trading William Contreras this winter...4088Thu, 15 Jan 2026 23:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-swing-path-analysis-should-inform-brewers-plans-for-playing-matchups-at-first-base-r4085/One way or another, Andrew Vaughn and Jake Bauers will divide time at first base for the 2026 Milwaukee Brewers. In 2025, each was a productive hitter. Vaughn batted .308/.375/.493 in 254 plate appearances after joining the team in early July. Bauers played a much smaller role and didn't enjoy t...4085Wed, 14 Jan 2026 23:03:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/after-yankees-trade-for-marlins-starter-ryan-weathers-what-suitors-remain-for-freddy-peralta-r4083/The New York Yankees wanted to use outfield prospect Dillon Lewis as the centerpiece of a trade to bolster their starting rotation, but the Brewers were never going to accede to a deal focused on Lewis in exchange for Freddy Peralta. Thus, New York circled back to the Miami Marlins Tuesday, afte...4083Wed, 14 Jan 2026 12:20:42 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/milwaukee-brewers-invite-six-more-to-spring-training-r4082/Spring training invitations serve two purposes. For the team, the players invited to big-league camp serve mainly as extras for drills, or to make sure certain positions (like catcher) have bodies to handle all the pitchers. But for the players—the prospects who have a hope of one day reaching t...4082Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:07:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-william-contrerass-second-season-of-arbitration-differs-from-his-first-r4081/For the second year in a row, the Brewers exchanged salary figures with William Contreras, rather than agreeing to a new contract ahead of baseball's filing deadline for arbitration-eligible players. It's been unsurprising both times. Contreras is the closest of Milwaukee's position players to a...4081Tue, 13 Jan 2026 00:03:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/sources-brewers-moving-toward-freddy-peralta-trade-with-yankees-in-lead-r4077/The Milwaukee Brewers are "moving toward a deal" that would send starting pitcher Freddy Peralta out of town for the final year of his team-friendly contract, according to a source familiar with the team's talks.
