89-73, good enough to get into the playoffs MVP: William Contreras CY: Kyle Harrison ROY: Brandon Sproat Surprising player: Mitchell stays healthy enough to put up decent numbers in CF. Don't know if it counts as a surprise, but Bauers continues to hit and thus continues to find spots in the lineup Disappointment: Koenig regresses but Zerpa picks up the slack so that few notice

March/April Record Predictions (2026)
bensheeps replied to RobDeer 45's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Give me 16-14 -
I start by saying I'm a HUGE Garrett Mitchell fan and often evaluate on my heart rather than my head when predicting his outcomes. There's just too much ceiling in there for him not to eventually "get it". Got to hope that just as we can't read too much into great spring results, we can say the same on the other end of the spectrum. Even with that all said, I expected him to be in Nashville for some consistent at bats early in the year with how his spring training has looked. Will be interesting to see how many early at bats the combination of Lockridge and Bauers get in the outfield (playing the hot hands from spring).
-
Agreed that the most likeliest is Lockridge moving ahead of Perkins with a hot spring (although with the way that Murph speaks about Perkins, it could take a lot). Before the late winter trades, I would have said Eddys Leonard. The reasons: signed early in the fall (showing real interest from the Brewers), out of options, versatility on defense, some pop in the minor leagues. But, the powers that be have really spoken highly of David Hamilton so it would be a surprise to see that switch.
-
Agreed. Best case scenario is he fills 3rd base well enough to start the year until Wilken or Jett proves to be ready in AAA. Also that he plays well enough to fill the backup role after the middle of the year.

-
My heart and head are fighting over posting something like this. I truly believe Mitchell either does this for us this year or we lament after he does it for some other team next year.
-
Agree with this take completely. (Just hoping that the result of early season 2026 is a little better than early season 2025).

Does the move today make non-roster invitee Eddys Leonard (and his 20 HR power at AAA last year) a more intriguing Spring Training option?

2025-26 Offseason Around the League Thread
bensheeps replied to sveumrules's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Waiting to hear money, but if reasonable this is one that I thought could fit with the Crew. -
Any interest in a flyer on Jhonkensy Noel? Power is off the charts but stats were ugly last year (and I think he out of options).
-
Sung-moon Song is someone I've thought of as well. A LH bat to complement RH Durbin might make for a nice fit if the money is right. His posting period is shorter than the Japanese stars so we would have an answer within the next week.

Ha-Seong Kim a no-brainer off-season signing?
bensheeps replied to Scooterfletcher's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
From The Athletic today talking about Boras' top 10 free agents was this nugget. I know the source is Jim Bowden, but at least the Brewers get a mention during hot stove time. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6855991/2025/12/03/scott-boras-free-agents-ranked-mlb-winter-meetings/ 8. Ha-Seong Kim, 2B/SS/3B Kim’s best year was with the Padres in 2023 when he slashed .260/.351/.398 with 23 doubles, 17 home runs and 38 stolen bases to go along with Gold Glove defense for his work at second base. However, a serious shoulder injury ended his 2024 season early. It also derailed his 2025 season, allowing him to play in just 48 games combined with the Rays and Braves. He’s healthy now and there is tremendous interest in the 30-year-old, including from both the Braves and Brewers, and he would immediately be an upgrade at shortstop for either of them, assuming his arm strength is fully back in 2026. -
As a huge Woodruff fan, this is great news! Hoping they explore a longer deal that works for both team and player and Woody becomes a "life-long" Brewer.
-
Wasn't sure where to put this, but a little more clarity on Saturday's start time.
-
How does playoff roster construction work with regard to options? For example: The Brewers decide they don't need to carry Erick Fedde on the NLDS roster but would like to add him for the NLCS roster. In this example does moving Fedde off the active roster when he doesn't have an option remaining mean he has to be DFA'd and could then be grabbed by someone else?
-
I've decided that I'm going to take this news as completely positive and live in more own little perfect world until proven otherwise.
-
Fell to 10-8 today. (one more to go before the playoffs)
-
I love this analysis! Does this mean we could see Isaac Collins at the hot corner on Wednesday vs. Merrill Kelly (arm angle = 24degrees)?
-
Seeing Fedde and Rob Z get through scoreless means I won't be as nervous the next time they are asked to do the same. Right? (Yeah, I didn't think so)
-
So were the 8th inning AB's for Siegler and/or Bauers their last appearances in 2025?
-
Contreras the early favorite for Murph's taser today.
-
Rookie of the Year! (Will be nice to go along with the 2-time manager of the year and possible Cy Young - if the board can agree on if Freddy is an ace or not)
-
Gotta like sending the message to the Jays closer so it pays dividends in the World Series.
