  1. Yeah, the story is *technically* correct but it's missing the context of the trade. Thanks for the heads-up, I changed that sentence slightly.

  3. It's a mild bummer that Small wasn't promoted to Milwaukee but it's probably the right decision; with that walk rate, there's a pretty good chance MLB hitters would eat him alive and then you're stuck in the position of a guy unnecessarily sitting on the 40-man roster with no way to undo the move.

  5. I really don't understand the current 40-man situation. Signs point to something being in the works but why so many empty spots? It's barely even late May.
  6. The Brewers strangely have a ton of 40-man space right but it's always hard to add someone before it's necessary, which is what they'd need to do with Small. If his walk rate was lower, maybe this would be a no-brainer decision to add him. I could see this going either way and see legitimacy in both courses of action.
  7. I think I have this fixed now, please let me know if that isn't the case.
  8. A game like Sunday makes it all too easy to ignore the fact the Brewers soundly beat the Nats in the first two games of the series.

  10. I think the point is that these kinds of decisions are best made 5-ish years ahead of time to see it all done by the expiration of the contract/agreement. That doesn't leave a ton of time to hash out which direction is the best path forward.

  12. I'd have to do some digging but I'm relatively confident they couldn't put a roof in that location. Either way, it doesn't really matter that much to me, as my extreme preference is no roof so however they got there is fine with me. Target Field's views would have really suffered with a roof over the stadium, particularly right field.

  14. While partially true, a big component of no roof on Target Field was that they would have needed to build the park elsewhere, as the current location of Target Field did not have a footprint large enough for a roofed stadium. I personally believe baseball parks should not have roofs so I believe this was the correct decision.

  16. You're not the first person I've heard say that this is actually a huge physical issue with their eyes. I wish I had known that earlier and I would have prioritized this before a few days ago.
  17. But hey, at least his... sprint speed... is still good... I'll show myself to the door, thanks.

  19. This has been one of the most-requested features for a long time and I'm happy to announce that Dark Mode is finally a thing you can use across the site! Dark Mode is a new way to use Brewer Fanatic, especially at night or in darkened rooms. Instead of the background being black text over white background, it's the inverse: white text over black background. Some people find sites easier to use and read in this inverted scheme and now it's really easy to toggle back and forth as needed. At the top right of each page, you will see four icons in the blue bar; the first icon is a half-filled circle. Click that to toggle back and forth from light to dark modes on the site. That's it! Now, the site has become quite sprawling and while I tried to check every aspect of how this renders on each page, I surely missed some things. Therefore, dear user, you are my quality assurance team. If you see anything that's hard to read, doesn't work right, or just plain looks weird, add a comment below and I'll get it fixed as soon as possible. For those of you who have been asking for this feature for so long, sorry it has taken this long. What seemed like a pretty simple feature actually turned into an overly-complex problem that I couldn't solve without quite a bit of effort. Once again, I'd like to give a big thanks and shout out to our caretakers of Brewer Fanatic; without their continued support, small-but-important features like Dark Mode would be much more difficult to implement. The added freedom to hire additional staff allows me to spend more time focusing on these types of projects. Thanks again!
  20. Part two of this Bob Uecker-narrated retrospective of the 1989 Milwaukee Brewers focuses on a trio of veterans: Paul Molitor, Jim Gantner, and Robin Yount. While Gantner was injured and struggled for much of the season, Molitor went on a tear late in the season, posting long hitting streaks and absurd batting averages. Meanwhile, Robin Yount was hitting milestones left and right as he set the Brewers home run record, recorded his 1,000th RBI, and his 2,000th hit.

  22. Willy Adames has been sent to the 10-day Injured List for a high-ankle sprain he received on May 15th against the Marlins. Brewers shortstop Willy Adames has been sent to the 10-day Injured List for a high ankle sprain he received on May 15th while attempting to score on a sacrifice fly. The move is retroactive to the following day, May 16th. The injury is a significant blow to Milwaukee's offense, as Adames has a league-leading nine home runs and an OPS+ of 117. He has been a fixture of the middle of the Brewers order since he arrived via trade last season and outside of Yelich, is perhaps the most important offensive piece if the team makes a deep postseason run in 2022. Recalled is much-maligned infielder Keston Hiura, who struggled with contact early in 2022, striking out in nearly 50% of his plate appearances. High ankle sprains are tricky and particularly hard on infielders who rely on twitch reflexes and planting to pivot and dive for balls. It's very possible Adames could miss significantly more time than ten days, which puts the Brewers in a difficult position until his return. View full article

  24. Bob Uecker narratives this 20-year anniversary retrospective of the 1989 Milwaukee Brewers. It was a volatile season with the Brewers bouncing up and down the standings in the American League East division. We see many familiar faces of yore in this video: Paul Molitor, Robin Yount, Teddy Higuera, and more.
