Murphy was interviewed during the 4th inning of the Brewers & Cubs game today. His comments regarding Priester didn’t sound encouraging. Apparently, he has some lingering issues dating back to end of 2025 season. Murph referenced Quinn having discomfort that started at his wrist & went up his arm. Am I overly concerned or should we all be concerned?
I love the Bible … so many interesting verses. This one - from my morning Bible reading - made me think of the Brewers stacked bullpen & rotation!
Judges 20:16 - Among Benjamin’s elite troops, 700 were left-handed. Each one could sling a rock and hit a target within a hairsbreadth without missing.
I’m so glad baseball season is back!

I posted this “bold” prediction following our trade with the NYM …
Chad Patrick will have a better 2026 season with the Brewers than Freddy Peralta will have with the Mets
Confession: I haven’t read any of the comments in this thread yet … I plan to do so once I get “free” from work later today.
I must admit, I am a HUGE Caleb Durbin fan so I’m initially quite sad & a little perplexed by this trade. In one way it makes sense with so many dynamic prospects knocking on the major league door.
It seems odd to me that we traded all of our major league options at 3B. I’m disappointed that Mayer wasn’t included - Hamilton hit .198 last year. He’s fast as lightning but already 29 years old.
I’m sure members of this board who are more knowledgeable than me will help clarify “why” this trade makes sense.
Color me confused & a little sad. Curious to see who makes the Opening Day roster & especially who is playing 3B.
I do trust Matt Arnold … so it is wait & see for me. I wonder if another trade is in the works.
I gladly pay the $120 annual MLB.com app fee to have access to the Brewers & all other baseball teams.
Additionally, I happily pay $60 annually for ad-free access to this website & the game day forums.
These may be my best expenditures of the year as a diehard Brewers fan.
All of the minor league “season summary” podcasts have been exceptional! Grateful to those (Spencer, Joseph, others) who spend hours preparing & sharing their insights & player analysis/projections. 💪👏
What catchers are likely to begin the season with:
Nashville
Biloxi
Wisconsin
Wilson
Surely we will add catchers before Spring Training … possibly in Milwaukee as well
POST TRADE PREDICTION:
Chad Patrick will have a better year for the Brewers than Freddy Peralta has for the Mets
POST TRADE QUESTIONS:
Is Jett Williams a candidate to move to CF? If so, how does he project there defensively?
Since the Brewers have several top prospects who play SS - Which ones are projected to stay there & which ones are likely to move?
Which middle infield prospects are most likely to become trade candidates (because of redundancy)?
Can Baty play LF? If so, he & Tong would be a great trade for Peralta. I assume he would be able to work an extension with the Mets before the trade would be finalized.
