Last year, Dunn's audition for the job we...3171Thu, 20 Mar 2025 22:09:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/once-convoluted-milwaukee-brewers-roster-picture-is-coming-into-focus-r3170/Pat Murphy succinctly summarized the challenges he and the front office face in crafting the Brewers’ initial 26-man roster. “It’s hard,” Murphy said on Tuesday, minutes after meeting with Matt Arnold and other Brewers executives to discuss precisely that. “We sat and went over every scenar...3170Thu, 20 Mar 2025 11:29:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/seeking-more-ways-to-get-outs-bryan-hudson-is-experimenting-with-a-sinker-r3166/It’s a tale as old as baseball’s modern era: a pitcher using spring training to develop a new pitch. Even in an age when hurlers can visit high-tech pitching labs to develop and refine a new offering off the field, the ultimate litmus tests are whether they can execute it in games and the o...3166Wed, 19 Mar 2025 13:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/it-made-the-most-sense-almost-all-along-joey-ortiz-named-brewers-primary-shortstop-r3167/Having Joey Ortiz slide from third base to shortstop in the stead of departed ex-Brewer Willy Adames always made the most sense. Brice Turang won the Platinum Glove in 2024, as the best of the Gold Glove winners in the National League, all at second base.

With his final pitch of a perfect inning, Yoho landed a back-door breaking ball to strike out Cincinnati Reds prospect Car...3163Tue, 18 Mar 2025 17:11:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/best-and-worst-case-scenarios-for-the-brewers-in-right-field-r3159/The Roster Situation Sal Frelick was the Crew’s primary right fielder in 2024, with Jackson Chourio and Garrett Mitchell also seeing significant playing time in that spot.

No? Too bad. Here it is, anyway. Contreras Yank.mp4 At the time, you'd never have guessed that he wouldn't pull a ball in the air again all season.

For the first time since Sept. 23, 2023, the right-hander toed the rubber in a big-league game, tossing a scoreless inning. The obvious highlight was his velocity.

This year, they have very good depth behind their MVP candidate and starter. In fact, not only do they have a solid set of guys at the big-league level, but there’s...3161Mon, 17 Mar 2025 15:13:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/best-and-worst-case-scenarios-for-the-brewers-in-center-field-r3157/The Roster Situation Garrett Mitchell, Sal Frelick, and Blake Perkins saw action for the Brewers in center field in 2024, with Perkins, a Gold Glove finalist, as the primary center fielder.
