It was a catastrophe-ridden year for Brewers' starters, and while the organization had become renowned for its ability to develop pitching, Peralta hardly f...3349Sun, 11 May 2025 11:58:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-designate-vinny-capra-for-assignment-recall-andruw-monasterio-and-bryan-hudson-r3347/Ahead of Friday night's series opener against the Tampa Bay Rays, the Brewers announced an infield shakeup. The club designated Vinny Capra for assignment and recalled Andruw Monasterio from Triple-A Nashville. Bryan Hudson was also recalled to take the spot of Elvin Rodríguez, whom the team opt...3347Fri, 09 May 2025 20:10:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/three-keys-for-taking-down-the-rays-adjust-to-minor-league-park-take-advantage-of-vulnerable-starters-r3343/After a bumpy landing to start their two-series home stand, the Crew found their footing against the Astros, decisively taking games one and two before Houston returned the favor with a 9–1 rout to avoid the sweep. The Crew are now 6–4 in their last ten, a modest step forward from the broader .5...3343Fri, 09 May 2025 16:14:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-jose-quintana-keeps-fooling-opponents-and-putting-up-numbers-r3345/Baseball Prospectus has StuffPro grades on every pitch in each pitcher's arsenal, all the way back to 2020. The number is meant to reflect the number of runs that offering causes to score (or not) per 100 times thrown, relative to an exactly average pitch, so the average is 0.0 and negative numb...3345Fri, 09 May 2025 11:24:37 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/are-the-milwaukee-brewers-losing-their-fans-r3335/The Milwaukee Brewers' attendance figures have consistently been strong, ranking in the top half of baseball of occupancy rates in 2024 (13th, 75%) despite playing in the smallest market in the majors. The fanbase has maintained a strong connection to their club, heightened particularly in 2018...3335Thu, 08 May 2025 22:05:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-manager-pat-murphy-needs-to-stand-up-to-catcher-william-contreras-r3341/William Contreras and his tough approach to baseball have long been a point of pride for Pat Murphy. That goes back to last season, when Contreras started each of the Brewers' first 58 games alongside Willy Adames, 47 of which came at the catcher position. Despite the wear and tear from the posi...3341Thu, 08 May 2025 11:54:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/meet-the-new-brandon-woodruff%E2%80%94coming-soon-to-a-big-league-mound-near-you-r3339/It has been quite some time since we’ve seen Brandon Woodruff toe the slab in the majors. His last outing for the big-league squad was on Sept. 23, 2023, when he pitched five innings against the Marlins to cap an astounding (although already injury-shortened) season. Just two weeks before that,...3339Wed, 07 May 2025 16:19:24 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/after-breakout-last-season-jared-koenigs-atypical-dominance-continues-for-2025-brewers-bullpen-r3338/Jared Koenig was a breakout contributor in last year's Brewers bullpen, authoring a 2.47 ERA, 3.28 FIP, and 88 DRA- in 62 innings, while ascending to a high-leverage role by season's end. It was fair to wonder, though, whether that success would carry into his second full big-league season....3338Wed, 07 May 2025 11:48:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/could-milwaukee-brewers-leverage-their-starting-pitching-depth-to-swing-a-big-trade-r3336/The left side of the Brewers infield has been horrible to start 2025. Joey Ortiz has changed his leg kick, with disastrous results. Vinny Capra won't be long for the major-league roster, and might already be gone, but that Oliver Dunn has been optioned and hasn't even inspired confidence with hi...3336Tue, 06 May 2025 22:06:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-hitter-of-the-month-april-2025-r3334/Honorable Mentions William Contreras 90 AB, .278/.394/.400, 25 H, 2 2B, 3 HR, 18 RBI, 4 SB Contreras has gotten off to a slow start—especially compared to the torrid pace he set in the first month of last year—but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been productive.

Contreras is controlling the strike zone tolerably well, and therefore, he's running a .361 OBP...3332Tue, 06 May 2025 11:18:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/3-keys-for-brewers-to-take-down-houston-astros-r3329/The last couple of weeks have erased much of the positive momentum Milwaukee had built amid this uneven start to the season. A missed opportunity to sweep the White Sox gave way to two dispiriting losses to start a home series against the Cubs—at home, no less. But then came a reminder that...3329Mon, 05 May 2025 17:11:00 +0000
