The club announced on Wednesday afternoon that it had signed left-hander Tyler Alexander to a one-year major-league deal. Alexander, 30, has bounced between starting and long relief t...3052Wed, 12 Feb 2025 21:36:26 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/we-have-new-insight-into-the-conscious-tradeoffs-brice-turang-made-in-2024-r3051/Though it was initially too noisy and buggy to be published, the stat mavens who run Statcast and bring us the delightful toy set that is Baseball Savant smoothed out second-half bat-tracking data from 2023 recently and published those data Wednesday morning.

A depth piece to start the year, shuttled back and forth from Nashville on one occasion, Myers stamped his mark on the season with improving results as the campaign went on. He led the Brewers' rotation (min 100 IP) wit...3049Wed, 12 Feb 2025 12:49:02 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/can-sal-frelick-be-more-patient-and-more-powerful-at-the-same-time-r3050/By now, the profile—and its set of problems—is familiar to you. Sal Frelick is one of the best contact hitters in baseball, and that has formed a strong, high floor for his production over the first 747 plate appearances of his big-league career. He didn't get on base as well in 2024 as he had d...3050Wed, 12 Feb 2025 00:04:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/limiting-the-long-ball-is-the-key-to-a-nick-mears-breakout-r3048/The Brewers could trade former closer Devin Williams in December because they possess an embarrassment of riches in the bullpen. Even with each reliever ascending one notch on the totem pole, the group should remain one of baseball’s best in the coming season.

In that time, it's easy to forget the form some players were in to finish the season, or the shoots of growth they found approaching the playoffs. There are three names, in particular, who have a fascinating year ah...3045Tue, 11 Feb 2025 00:12:00 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/as-brewers-open-spring-training-oliver-dunn-still-has-an-open-lane-r3046/Good swing decisions are the top priority for the Milwaukee Brewers, and that mentality has served them extraordinarily well over the last several seasons. They tend to overachieve at the plate, not only by hitting so well in high-leverage situations but by grinding their way on base in a way yo...3046Mon, 10 Feb 2025 15:08:52 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/how-not-to-have-your-heart-broken-by-freddy-peralta-in-2025-r3044/Last season, I (and many others) fell into the trap of seeing a Freddy Peralta fastball average over 18 inches of induced vertical break with his low release slot and an average velocity of over 95 miles per hour. Combining these three traits would create one of the best heaters in baseball.
