With DL Hall's injury trouble, Ort...3307Tue, 29 Apr 2025 15:25:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/3-keys-to-milwaukee-brewers-beating-chicago-white-sox-this-week-r3304/At the end of a road trip marked by errors, walkoffs, and rallies rendered moot, the Brewers find themselves at a crossroads. Sitting one game under .500, they’re now looking up at Cincinnati and the Cubs. At just the right moment, they head to Sox Park, to face a still-undeveloped White Sox tea...3304Tue, 29 Apr 2025 13:22:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/what-has-made-jose-quintana-the-steal-of-the-offseason-for-milwaukee-brewers-r3305/The Brewers didn’t do much this past winter. In fact, they rarely ever do much, when it comes to signing big-name starting pitchers. While the world was busy signing aces to fancy nine-figure deals, Milwaukee took a far more conservative approach. Even after losing franchise titans Colin Rea and...3305Tue, 29 Apr 2025 11:27:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/after-a-rocky-april-can-the-brewers-avoid-worst-case-scenarios-r3300/It's easy to attribute the Brewers' relatively slow start to the team's struggles on the road. Through the first 29 games of the season, the Crew are 9-4 at home against just 5-11 on the road. The whole team seems to just play better in the confines of American Family Field. Before the seas...3300Mon, 28 Apr 2025 11:55:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-week-in-review-tough-road-trippin-r3301/Weekly Snapshot: Record Last Week: 2-5 (Overall: 14-15 ) Run Scored Last Week: 34 Runs Surrendered Last Week: 30 Standing: 3rd in NL Central (3.5 GB) *** Game 18 (4/21) | SF 5, MIL 2 Game 19 (4/22) | MIL 11, SF 3 Game 20 (4/23) | SF 4, MIL 2 Game 21 (4/24) | SF 6, MIL 5 Ga...3301Sun, 27 Apr 2025 22:14:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/pat-murphy-is-pressing-buttons-like-his-team-is-in-big-trouble-and-can-you-blame-him-r3299/  After a series loss in San Francisco disappointing as much because of how it happened as because it happened at all, Pat Murphy held a closed-door meeting to convey his displeasure with the defensive dysfunction on display. On Saturday, after a poor start seemed to be dooming them to a bl...3299Sun, 27 Apr 2025 14:07:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/not-so-wild-now-william-contrerass-worst-to-first-transformation-in-throwing-accuracy-r3297/Over the winter, I wrote about the fact that William Contreras was (at least by the best available metric we have, via Statcast) the least accurate thrower from behind the plate on steal attempts in 2024. It was a major problem, costing him any chance to be an above-average stopper of the runnin...3297Sun, 27 Apr 2025 11:02:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-long-is-vinny-capras-leash-with-the-brewers-r3295/It has already become a disconcerting theme: a left-side Brewers' infielder is off to a woeful start, sparking uncomfortable conversations about that area of the roster in late April. Joey Ortiz's 35 wRC+ is the worst among qualified shortstops. Oliver Dunn fared even worse, prompting the Brewer...3295Sat, 26 Apr 2025 11:52:03 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-weekend-series-preview-three-keys-for-taking-down-the-cardinals-r3291/The St. Louis Cardinals have been a thorn in the side of the Brewers fan base as long as much of them have been able to cultivate memories. Ever since 2007, the shrewd hand of John Mozeliak has steered the Cardinals into a winning lane and kept them there. Almost immediately upon taking control,...3291Fri, 25 Apr 2025 15:32:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/why-specifically-have-the-brewers-forgotten-how-to-defend-r3292/The Milwaukee Brewers' loss on Thursday afternoon was a painful one, but it exposed a series of flaws we have seen since the start of the season from this Brewers defense. The reigning Team Gold Glove winners, led by the premium infield pairing of Joey Ortiz and Brice Turang, have made poor deci...3292Fri, 25 Apr 2025 11:27:12 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/mlb-announces-2025-draft-2026-international-signing-period-bonus-pools-r3289/This week, MLB released bonus pool allocations and pick values for the 2025 MLB Draft. Additionally, MLB released international signing bonus pools for the 2026 signing period. Despite making the playoffs in 2024, the Brewers are well positioned in the 2025 MLB Draft.

That pattern continued Thursday, as the team returned Tobias Myers from his rehab assignment and restored him to their starting rotation—but sent down struggling southpaw reliever Bry...3290Thu, 24 Apr 2025 18:39:16 +0000
