That provided a nice blanket of coverage for Chad Patrick, who struggled with his command through five innings, walking five but coming away with the win while only surrendering a single run. Sal Frelick finds the bleachers (+10.5 WP%) Game 29 | Diamondbacks 6, Brewers 2 MIL Starter: Brandon Sporat (4.1 IP, 6 H, 2 BB, 4 ER, 5 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (2 H, 2 2B, RBI) DL Hall (2.1 IP, H, BB, 0 ER, 3 K) Brian Fitzpatrick (1.1 IP, 2 H, BB, 0 ER) Arizona roughed up Brandon Sproat, who, despite a dominant start, coughed up four runs in the 4th inning. Meanwhile, the combination of DBack starter Eduardo Rodriguez and four relievers was able to keep the Brewers' offense in check, keeping the Brewers at just two runs of scoring to even the series. Brice Turang’s RBI double (+10.6 WP%) Game 30 | Brewers 13, Diamondbacks 1 MIL Starter: Brandon Woodruff (1.1 IP, H, BB, 0 ER, 2 K) Top Performers: William Contreras (4 H, BB, 2B, HR, 4 RBI) Shane Drohan (4.0 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 4 K) Brice Turamg (2 H, 2 BB, RBI) It was a short turnaround for the Crew to get back to their hitting ways, as once again, they hung 13 runs on the Diamondbacks to win the series rubber match. There was some bad news, though, as Brandon Woodruff exited the game in the 2nd inning with an injury, souring the Brewers' 13-1 win. William Contreras leaves the yard (+7.5 WP%) Game 31 | Brewers 6, Nationals 1 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (5.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K) Top Performers: William Contreras (4 H, 3 RBI) Tyler Black (2 H, 2 2B, RBI) David Hamilton (2 H, BB) Jacob Misiorowski was at his best as the Brewers traveled to the nation's capital to play the Nationals, twirling 5 1/3 innings of no-hit baseball before a cramp ended his start prematurely. That was plenty for the rest of the team, as William Contreras recorded his second straight game with four hits, while the bullpen closed the door behind the Miz for a 6-1 win. Misiorowski’s dominant outing Game 32 | Brewers 4, Nationals 1 MIL Starter: Kyle Harrison (6.0 IP, 7 H, BB, 1 ER, 5 K) Top Performers: Brandon Lockridge (2 H, 2 RBI) Trevor Megill (1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 ER) Kyle Harrison had a busier day than Misiorowski the day before, but the results were much the same in Saturday’s game. That being the Nationals scoring only a single run, this time to a different tune of Kye Harrison working around seven hits and a walk in his six innings of work, while a three-run first inning made up the majority of the Brewer offense in a 4-1 win. Brandon Lockridge plates a pair (+14.2 WP%) Game 33 | Nationals 3, Brewers 2 MIL Starter: Logan Henderson (6.0 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 8 K) Top Performers: Brandon Lockridge (2 H, 2B) Sunday's game was headlined by Logan Henderson's return to the big leagues, and as he's proven to be in his young career so far, he was effective. Henderson tossed six innings of 2-run ball on just 76 pitches. On the other side, though, Washington was able to avoid the sweep, using five pitchers to hold the Brewers' offense to just 2 runs of their own. Henderson's strong outing Transactions: 05/03/26 - Recalled RHP Logan Henderson from AAA Nashville. 05/03/26 - Optioned RHP Easton McGee to AAA Nashville. 05/01/26 - Placed RHP Brandon Woodruff on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation. 05/01/26 - Recalled RHP Easton McGee from AAA Nashville. 04/29/26 - Sent 1B Andrew Vaughn on a rehab assignment to AAA Nashville. 04/29/26 - Placed LHP Angel Zerpa on the 15-day injured list with left forearm tightness. (Retroactive to April 26, 2026) 04/29/26 - Sent CF Jackson Chourio on a rehab assignment to AAA Nashville. 04/29/26 - Selected the contract of LHP Brian Fitzpatrick from AAA Nashville. Notes Brandon Woodruff left his start on April 30th in the 2nd inning with his velocity down significantly. Tests showed Woodruff avoided any arm damage, and it is believed that his IL stint will be short. Jacob Misiorowski left his start on May 1st with leg cramps. He was not placed on the IL, although his next scheduled start against St. Louis is currently TBA. Angel Zerpa is currently mulling over season-ending Tommy John surgery. Jackson Chourio’s rehab hit a roadblock after Chourio fouled a ball off his foot. X-Rays are negative, but the Brewers need to see how the injury progresses before he is reinstated from the IL. Brice Turang was scratched from Sunday’s game with an illness.

In the end, though, it was the Milwaukee offense that eliminated any need for perfect pitching, as the Brewers' offense notched 16 hits and scored 12 runs, seven of which came in the 8th inning.

That was all that was needed for the team from Motor City; they closed out the game 5-2 to set up the rubber match on Thursday. Jake Bauers knocks in a run d2V3ME5fWGw0TUFRPT1fVjFKWFZRWlZVRllBV2djQkJRQUhVQTRFQUFBTUFsa0FCZ0VNQjFjR1VBcFFWRlpW.mp4 Game 24 | Tigers 5, Brewers 4 MIL Starter: Brandon Sproat (5.1 IP, 4 H, 2 BB, 3 ER, 4 K) Top Performers: Gary Sánchez (2 H, 2B, RBI) David Hamilton (2 H, RBI) Trevor Megill (1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R) It looked as if the Brewers were going to steal the series from reigning AL Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal and the Tigers on Thursday, as the Brewers chased Skubal with the lead. But the Tigers roared back, tagging both Abner Uribe and Ángel Zerpa for solo home runs in the 8th and 9th innings, which flipped the scoreboard and series in the Tigers' favor.

Jake Bauers breaks up the perfecto MTZOYjNfWGw0TUFRPT1fQUFOV1hGRUJYMUFBVzFBQkFnQUhWd1pWQUZsUkFBTUFWbEJVVWdVQ0NRb0RBVlJT.mp4 Game 26 | Pirates 6, Brewers 3 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (6.0 IP, 6 H, BB, ER, 9 K) Top Performers: Tyler Black (2 H, 2B) Aaron Ashby (2.0 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 4 K) Jake Bauers (2 H) Another tough loss felled the Brewers to open the weekend. It saw strong outings from starters Jacob Misiorowski and Mitch Keller, who eventually gave way to the bullpens, and to extra innings. There, the struggling Zerpa gave up the lead and then some. The depleted Brewers offense went quietly to give them their 4th straight loss. Misiorowski cuts down Cruz TUFYMjFfWGw0TUFRPT1fQkZOVFV3QlZWMVFBWGxFS1ZBQUhCMVZRQUZoUkJnTUFVUUZSQ0ZGUUFGVURVd2RV.mp4 Game 27 | Brewers 5, Pirates 0 MIL Starter: Kyle Harrison (6.0 IP, H, BB, 0 ER, 12 K) Top Performers: Jake Bauers (2 H, 2 2B) Brandon Lockridge (H, BB, 2 RBI) It was Kyle Harrison's turn to throw a gem, as his 11th career start on Sunday was not only a bounce-back from his previous appearance, but undoubtedly his best. He got the run support, too, as the Brewers plated five in the fourth inning to chase Carmen Mlodzinski, highlighted by a Brandon Lockridge two-run single. The bullpen behind Harrison was shaky, but they did close the door without allowing any runs. Brice Turnag's leaping grab Transactions: 04/24/26 - Designated RF Luis Matos for assignment. 04/24/26 - Recalled OF/1B Tyler Black from Nashville Sounds. 04/24/26 - Recalled LHP Shane Drohan from Nashville Sounds. 04/24/26 - Optioned RHP Carlos Rodriguez to Nashville Sounds. 04/23/26 - Activated RHP Craig Yoho from the 15-day injured list. 04/23/26 - Optioned RHP Craig Yoho to Nashville Sounds. 04/22/26 - Signed free agent OF Mark Coley II to a minor league contract. 04/22/26 - Sent RHP Quinn Priester on a rehab assignment to Nashville Sounds.

Image courtesy of © Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Weekly Snapshot: Record Last Week: 4-2 (Overall: 12-9) Run Scored Last Week: 26 Runs Surrendered Last Week: 26 Standing: 3rd in NL Central Game 16 (4/14) | TOR 9, MIL 7 Game 17 (4/15) | MIL 2, TOR 1 Game 18 (4/16) | MIL 2, TOR 1 Game 19 (4/17) | MIL 7, MIA 5 Game 20 (4/18) | MIL 5, MIA 2 Game 21 (4/19) | MIA 5, MIL 3 Game 16 | Blue Jays 9, Brewers 7 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (5.1 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 5 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (3 H, RBI) Gary Sánchez (H, BB, HR, RBI) Jake Bauers (H, HR, 3 RBI) The Brewers' now-distant losing streak was pushed to six games on Tuesday, in ugly fashion. It wasn’t through the fault of Jacob Misiorowski, however, as he turned in another strong start, twirling 5 1/3 innings of two-run ball. It was the bullpen that let the contest slip, with Trevor Megill getting tagged for 3 runs and blowing the save in the 9th, and Grant Anderson coughing up a pair of runs in the 10th. That implosion wasted timely home runs from Gary Sánchez and Jake Bauers, and a game-tying hit from Brandon Lockridge in the 9th. Jake Bauers’ 3-run bomb (+19.5 WP%) Game 17 | Brewers 2, Blue Jays 1 MIL Starter: Chad Patrick (6.2 IP, 3 H, ER, 2 K) Top Performers: Aaron Ashby (1.0 IP, H, BB, 0 ER, 3 K) Abner Uribe (1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, K, SV) William Contreras (2 H, RBI) Wednesday was a return to form that saw the Brewers snap their skid behind Chad Patrick, turning in their (then-)longest start of the year. That took the pressure off the bullpen, which put up a zero behind Patrick, while the offense used their signature death-by-paper cuts approach to plate two runs in the eighth inning. Finally, the Brewers were back to their winning ways. William Contreras' game-tying single (+30.0 WP%) Game 18 | Brewers 2, Blue Jays 1 MIL Starter: Brandon Sporat (6.2 IP, 4 H, BB, ER, 6 K) Top Performers: Trevor Megill (1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 2 K) Gary Sánchez (2 H, BB, 2B) The rubber match mirrored the previous day, with Brandon Sproat turning in his best outing as a Brewer and, like Patrick, turning in the longest start of the Brewers' young season. On the offensive side, the Brewers took small ball to the extreme, using a walk and three consecutive bunts to score all the runs they needed before Ángel Zerpa shut the Jays down in the 9th. Milwaukee plays small ball (again) Game 19 | Brewers 7, Marlins 5 MIL Starter: Coleman Crow (5.1 IP, 4 H, BB, 2 ER, 4 K) Top Performers: Luis Rengifo (2 H, 2B, RBI) Garrett Mitchell (2 H, 2B, 3 RBI) Gary Sánchez (H, 3 BB) Coleman Crow earned his first major-league start, though the minor maladies of Kyle Harrison paved the way for it. Under the Miami sun, Crow turned in exactly what Pat Murphy and the Brewers were looking for. There were some bullpen struggles behind him, though, with a late Marlins rally sending the game to extra innings. Fortunately, some timely poor defense from Miami and a Garrett Mitchell knockout punch put the game away. Garrett Mitchell knocks in a pair of runners Game 20 | Brewers 5, Marlins 2 MIL Starter: Brandon Woodruff (7.0 IP, 3 H, BB, ER, 4 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (2 H, 2 BB, 3 RBI) Garett Mitchell (H, 3 BB) Joey Ortiz (H, 2 BB) Saturday's contest was as smooth a game as the Brewers have had in some time, with an efficient Brandon Woodruff being the first Brewer to complete seven innings all season. With the bats, Brice Turang led the way with a 2-run home run, while the rest of the team drew six walks against the usually pinpoint former Cy-young award winner Sandy Alcantara. Brice Turang’s two-run homer (+20.6 WP%) Game 21 | Marlins 5, Brewers 3 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (5.0 IP, 4 H, 3 BB, 3 R, 1 ER, 9 K) Top Performers: Carlos Rodriguez (2.0 IP, 2 H, O ER, 3 K) Gary Sánchez (H, 2 RBI) Jacob Misiorowski's rough start in the series finale looked like it was all the Marlins were going to need to avoid a sweep, as a 3-run first inning was more than enough cushion for Marlins hurler Eury Pérez, who tossed six innings of one-run ball against the Brewers' lineup. Misiorowski did manage to labor through five innings, though, striking out nine Fish along the way, and that set the stage for the Brewers to make the game interesting late—although the comeback did eventually fall short. Miz's nine K's Transactions: 04/18/26 - Optioned RHP Coleman Crow to AAA Nashville. 04/18/26 - Recalled RHP Carlos Rodriguez from AAA Nashville. 04/17/26 - Recalled RHP Coleman Crow from AAA Nashville Sounds. 04/17/26 - Optioned RHP Easton McGee to AAA Nashville. 4/15/26 - Traded RHP Junior Fernández to Milwaukee Brewers. 04/14/26 - Placed LHP Rob Zastryzny on the 60-day injured list with a left shoulder strain. 04/14/26 - Placed LF Christian Yelich on the 10-day injured list with a left groin strain. (Retroactive to April 13, 2026) 04/14/26 - Selected the contract of RF Greg Jones from AAA Nashville. Notes: The timeline for Christian Yelich's return is mid to late May. Greg Jones took his place on the roster.

Behind all that drama, it was Brandon Woodruff who took the ball and labored through 5 2/3 innings in game one, although at the end of the night, it was Garett Mitchell and the pesky Brewers' offense who broke through late to pick Woody up. Garett Mitchell’s go-ahead knock Game 11 | Red Sox 3, Brewers 2 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (5.1 IP, 2 H, 4 BB, 3 ER, 10 K) Top Performers: DL Hall (2.1 IP, H, BB, 0 ER, K) Gary Sánchez (H, BB) Tuesday’s contest saw Jacob Misiorowski earn his third start of the young season, and for Misiorowski, it was two different tales smashed into one. The first five innings of the game were flat-out dominant, as the young righty recorded 10 strikeouts and kept Boston off the scoreboard. In the sixth, though, he lost all command. Misiorowski only recorded one out, walked three, and left the game only to see all three of those runners come around to score. That would be all Boston needed, as behind the Miz, things didn’t fare much better. Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet quieted the Brewers' offense, twirling 6.1 innings of two-run ball. Misiorowski’s 10 K’s Game 12 | Red Sox 5, Brewers 0 MIL Starter: Shane Drohan (2.2 IP, 3 H, 4 BB, 3 ER, 2 K) Top Performers: Grant Anderson (1.1 IP, 0 H, 2 BB, 0 ER, K) Aaron Ashby (1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 2 K) The offense stayed cold for Wednesday’s rubber match, as another old foe in Sonny Gray shut down the Milwaukee offense. That spoiled the major league debut of Shane Drohan, who, after two solid innings, found himself in a similar situation as Misiorowski the night before; walking multiple batters and exiting the game without finishing the inning he started. Garett Mitchell’s tumbling grab Game 13 | Nationals 7, Brewers 3 MIL Starter: Aaron Ashby (2.0 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 4 K) Top Performers: Jake Bauers (2 H, BB, HR, 3 RBI) Aaron Ashby and Chad Patrick were the opener/bulk pairing for the Brewers in the series opener against Washington, a move that saw Ashby surrender two early runs and Patrick twirl three scoreless innings behind him. It seemed as if the ploy for Pat Murphy had worked, but a late implosion at the hands of Trevor Megill blew what was a small lead from a struggling offense. Jake Bauers’ 3-run home run (+26.5 WPA%) Game 14 | Nationals 3, Brewers 1 MIL Starter: Kyle Harrison (4.1 IP, 4 H, BB, 2 ER, K) Top Performers: William Contreras (H, HR, RBI) The Brewer bats remained cold into the weekend, as Nat’s starter Foster Griffin allowed just one hit in his stringent effort against the Crew, while Milwaukee starter Kyle Harrison battled through an early injury scare in his 4.1 innings of work. Unfortunately, his gutsy outing wasn’t rewarded, as it wasn’t until the 9th inning that the Brewers managed to scrape across a run, and by then, their last rally fell short. William Contreras’ solo homer (+5.2 WP%) Game 15 | Nationals 8, Brewers 6 MIL Starter: Brandon Woodruff (6.0 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 6 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (3 H, BB, 2 HR, 2 RBI) Gary Sánchez (H, HR, 3 RBI) Jake Bauers (2 H, HR, RBI) It was the bullpen's turn to spoil a win in Milwaukee, as on Sunday, a quality start from Brandon Woodruff was squandered by the pesky Nationals, scoring six runs late. On the offensive side, there were some signs of life, though, as Brice Turang recorded the Brewers' first multi-homer game of the season, and both Gary Sanchez and Jake Bauers went deep as well. Turang's second homer of the day (+15.0 WP%) Transactions: 04/10/26 - Recalled RHP Easton McGee from AAA Nashville. 04/09/26 - Signed free agent RHP Reiss Knehr to a minor league contract. 04/09/26 - Optioned LHP Shane Drohan to AAA Nashville. 04/08/26 - Traded RF Steward Berroa to Philadelphia Phillies for cash. 04/06/26 - Placed LHP Jared Koenig on the 15-day injured list with a left elbow sprain. (Retroactive to April 5, 2026) 04/06/26 - Recalled LHP Shane Drohan from AAA Nashville. Notes Christian Yelich left Sunday’s game with left hamstring tightness. His status for the future is currently unknown, although manager Pat Murphy was not optimistic about Yelich avoiding an injury. Both Brand Sproat and Kyle Harrison were being evaluated for Knee injuries after Saturday's game; however, it seems both have avoided any major injury. Looking Ahead: Tuesday, 4/14 - Blue Jays @ Brewers - 6:40 pm CDT Wednesday, 4/15 - Blue Jays @ Brewers - 6:40 pm CDT Thursday, 4/16 - Blue Jays @ Brewers - 12:40 pm CDT Friday, 4/17 - Brewers @ Marlins - 6:10 pm CDT Saturday, 4/18 - Brewers @ Marlins - 3:10 pm CDT Sunday, 4/19 - Brewers @ Marlins - 12:40 pm CDT View full article

His offense couldn’t muster much against old NL Central foe Nick Martinez, however, as a 2-run home run off the bat of William Contreras was the only runs Milwaukee could scrape across against a stringent Rays staff, while the Brewers bullpen found their first hiccup of the young season, as Trevor Megill was charged with the loss by surrendering the go-ahead run in the 9th. William Contreras’ two-run home run (+23.6 WP%) Game 5 | Brewers 6, Rays 2 MIL Starter: Brandon Woodruff (5.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 6 K) Top Performers: Gary Sánchez (H, BB, HR, RBI) Jake Bauers (2 H, HR, RBI) Brandon Lockridge (2 H, 2B, RBI) Game two of the series against Tampa Bay saw a marquee pitching matchup between Brandon Woodruff and Shane McClanahan. Luckily for the Brewers, it was Woody who got the better of his counterpart, tossing five innings of two-run ball. On the other side, McClanahan was effective through four innings, but a three-run fifth from the Milwaukee offense chased him from the game. They’d add two more runs in the next innings, as well as one in the eighth, and the bullpen put up a zero behind Brandon Woodruff to secure a 6-2 Milwaukee win. Gary Sánchez's solo home run (+11.9 WP%) Game 6 | Brewers 8, Rays 2 MIL Starter: Jacob Misiorowski (6.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 7 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (H, BB, HR 2 RBI) Christian Yelich (2 H, 2 RBI) Garrett Mitchell (2 H, 2B, 2 RBI) Jacob Misiorowski took the mound for his second start of the season and did little more than pick up where he left off on Opening Day. The Miz provided six innings of two-run ball for the Crew, and while it wasn’t until the eighth inning that the Brewers' bats finally broke through for their first big inning of the series, the six-run explosion off Griffin Jax was more than enough to propel Milwaukee to its second straight series win. Brice Turang’s two-run home run (+18.1 WP%) Game 7 | Brewers 5, Royals 2 MIL Starter: Chad Patrick (4.0 IP, 0 ER, 4 H, 3 BB, 3 K) Top Performers: Garrett Mitchell (2 H, 2B, HR, 5 RBI) Abner Uribe (1.1 IP, 0 ER, K) Trevor Megill (1.0 IP, 0 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, SV) While it was Chad Patrick who ended his day with a scoreless outing, Garrett Mitchell stole the show in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader by knocking in a career-high five runs. Both came early into the game, with a two-run double in the 1st, and a three-run home run in the 3rd. It would be all the offense the Brewers needed, as then, the backend of the ‘pen closed the daycap out. Garett Mitchell’s Five RBI Game 8 | Royals 8, Brewers 2 MIL Starter: Logan Henderson (2.0 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, BB, 3 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (H, 3B, RBI) Garett Mitchell (H, 2B, RBI) DL Hall (2.0 IP, 0 ER, H, BB, 2 K) The Saturday nightcap saw the Royals even the series by getting to a pair of young Brewers pitchers, with both Logan Henderson and his piggyback Brandon Sporat surrendering multiple runs. On the offensive side, the Kansas City trio of Seth Lugo, Nick Mears, and Eli Morgan kept the Brewers bats to just two runs on five hits, and used a six-run sixth inning to send the series to a Sunday rubber match.

His 11 punchouts of White Sox hitters set a new franchise watermark for strikeouts on Opening Day, while the team behind him lit up the scoresheet by tallying 12 hits and drawing 10 walks in a 14-run outburst. William Contreras’ bases-clearing double (+23 WP%) Game 2 | Brewers 6, White Sox 1 MIL Starter: Chad Patrick (4.1 IP, 5H, 1 ER, 4 K) Top Performers: Brice Turang (3 H, 2 R, 2 2B) Christian Yelich (3 H, R, RBI) Garrett Mitchell (2 H, R, 2 RBI) Chad Patrick took the ball on Saturday, and despite not putting up the numbers Misiorowski did in the game previous, his 4.1 innings of one-run ball were more than enough to propel the Brewers to their second straight victory. On the offensive side, the Brewers played small ball, tallying up 12 more hits, with only two going for extra bases, and stealing 7 bases. Garrett Mitchell’s 2-run single (+8.7 WP%) Game 3 | Brewers 9, White Sox 7 MIL Starter: Brandon Sproat (3.0 IP, 6 H, 3 BB, 7 ER, 3 K) Top Performers: Christian Yelich (H, HR, 3 RBI) Gary Sánchez (2 H, HR, 2 RBI) Brewers Bullpen (Combined: 6.0 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 9 K) Sunday's series finale against the South Siders didn't have the start the Brewers might've imagined, with White Sox SS Colson Montgomery rudely greeting Milwaukee starter Brandon Sproat with a first-inning grand slam. Sproat never recovered, allowing three more runs and finishing his day with just three innings of work, exiting with the Sox up 7-2. The Brewers bullpen held the game there, though, and finally, in the eighth, the Brewers broke through. An RBI single from Brice Turang brought the game within three, and shortly after, Luis Rengifo's first Brewers hit brought the game within one. Sensing the moment, skipper Pat Murphy summoned Christian Yelich to pinch hit, who responded with a go-ahead three-run homer to cap the six-run 8th, and put Milwaukee up for good. Trevor Megill then capped the excellent day for the bullpen with a save in the 9th, and with that, the Brewers wrapped up their opening weekend with a sweep of the White Sox. Christian Yelich's go-ahead pinch-hit home run (+62 WP%) Transactions: 03/28/26 - Placed 1B Andrew Vaughn on the 10-day injured list with a left hamate fracture. (Retroactive to March 27, 2026) 03/28/26 - Recalled C Jeferson Quero from AAA Nashville. 03/26/26 - Placed CF Jackson Chourio on the 10-day injured list with a left hand fracture. (Retroactive to March 25, 2026) 03/26/26 - Recalled CF Blake Perkins from AAA Nashville. Notes: Jackson Chourio’s injury stems from an exhibition game while playing for Team Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic. The team's estimate is that Chourio will miss 2-4 weeks. Blake Perkins took the place of Chourio on the roster. Andrew Vaughn’s hand fracture occurred on Opening Day. Milwaukee expects Vaughn to miss 4-6 weeks while he recovers. Jefferson Quero’s recall was the corresponding move to Vaughn’s injury, with Gary Sánchez and Jake Bauers being expected to fill time at 1B while Vaughn recovers.

Breakdown / Highlights To say the Brewers coasted into October would be putting it lightly. Their own manager even admitted to “trying things,” so across from two teams playing for more than themselves, Milwaukee floundered a bit heading into the postseason. It all started in San Diego, with an 11-inning loss on Monday. Freddy Peralta was on the mound for the Brewers, pitching five strong innings, surrendering two runs, and striking out six. A collection of six relievers followed, leading up to Grant Anderson’s 11th inning, where San Diego finally walked it off. If the offense was quiet in game one, game two saw the group go silent. Bruce Zimmerman was tasked with making an emergency start, of sorts, and was a victim of a hot Padres offense early. Ryan O’Hearn hit a first-inning grand slam off the veteran, and the Friars added two more runs in the second before he settled in and gave the Crew six innings. On the other side, Randy Vásquez tossed 7 scoreless innings, giving up only a single Brewers hit. The bullpens on both sides gave up a few hits after the starters exited, but nothing much changed, leading to a 7-0 Padres win. The Brewers salvaged a game on Wednesday, behind a game pieced together by Chad Patrick and the bullpen. Patrick twirled three brilliant innings, striking out six and putting up a zero, while Erick Fedde followed in long relief, throwing 2 2/3 innings and surrendering the sole Padres run. The trio of Nick Mears, Jared Koenig, and Abner Uribe would close the game, following a go-ahead 7th-inning single from Brice Turang. Danny Jansen added a solo homer in the 9th for insurance, and Milwaukee won 3-1. Last week may not have been pretty, but ending on a high note bodes well for the future to come. For the final home series of the regular year, Milwaukee was up against a Reds team playing for the final Wild Card slot, and it showed. With the 1-seed officially being wrapped up with a Phillies loss before Saturday’s game concluded, there was nothing to play for. Perhaps most noteworthy was some continued offensive mediocrity, or the Robert Gasser/Jacob Misorowski duo getting blown up on Saturday. The final game of the season ended as it started, with Freddy Peratla on the mound. Despite two solo home runs, a mini-breakthrough for the offense in the 4th inning put the Brewers ahead for good. With the win, the 2025 Brewers are now the franchise's winningest team.
