"The Brewers haven't trusted Kyle Harrison or Chad Patrick enough to put them on the mound at all over the first two rounds of their playoff run. To put either of them on the roster and leave off Woodruff would be absurd. If Woodruff can pitch, the man goes on the roster." -Matthew Trueblood- I couldn't agree more. ....... I would lean towards dropping Dustin May. He gave up the big bomb to Otahni. He did well on 10/12 vs LAD. His last 10 outings except for the 10/12/26 game is " "under mediocre". That is my ranking category based upon what I have been seeing. He seems wound up and on edge when I check out his eyes. Kind of like Craig Counsel chewing his finger nails. Per Stat Muse he has a record of 1-1 with an ERA of 5.65 and 31 strikeouts in 10 appearances in his last 10 games. Long and the short of it is get Woody on the World Series roster. Appreciate the article!!!!!!! -
Thanks Fanatic Staff! You are fantastic . Let's dance in the World Series!!!!!!!

Nice article. Sure feels like life support. They are the champs the last two years and Glasnow is pitching next. Doesn't feel like this Dodger team will come back and win 4 games. Sorry national announcers. You keep losing your car keys and making upo things based on National bias. FLUSH NATIONAL BIAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

superb article. He showed his stuff tonight!!!!!!

Salvific : other worldly forces combining on behalf of a small market team to rain down outs on the Dodgers.

Nice article. I appreciate the background on Turang working with the hitting coach. Fascinating!

I just love Lara. I love how while playing right field he comes over to Mitchell in center to congratulate him on a great catch. His young energy is precious.
-
There is a feeling that otherworldly forces of good are aligning with the Brewers. As Matthew wrote there is a fairy tale like quality to the atmosphere. I embrace this energy! There is room for it on the train.

It's a team game for the Brewer's. The mojo moves all around the dugout. We need everyone to contribute. It hinges on that not Brice Turang.

Baseball is a humbling and curious sport. For example, one day Harrison is slicing and dicing up the hitters and now he is treading water. 162 games is a long , long season. The "season" has seasons with in it as it mimics all the ups and downs of life. Patience and deep breaths are a requirement. Let's enjoy this special season.
-
To my eyes he has a quiet confidence. He looks the part around the plate and looks to have a bright future. Great article about the Brewer's approach to their young players.
-
I think you bring up one of their minor leaguers who is hitting bombs. Lots of fun options in the minors with some interesting trade options brewing in the Fall. That minor league system is the gift that keeps on giving.
-
There is room for both of them at third. Defense for Ortiz is other worldly and Hamilton's is really on the rise. I trust Pat Murphy.
-
I think you can be a great fan by cheering for Yelli but also by hoping for his benching for a while so he can clear his head and spirit. Both are ok and part of fandom.
-
Lots of lines in the water per Matt Arnold. We weren't fishing for Peralta (but good luck to him). Hopefully Mason Miller the reliever from San Diego makes his way to the Brew Crew. An A+ bullpen can really make some noise in October. Go get our muskie Matt Arnold.
-
Great news. He was an ascending player at the time of the injury. Just not sure where he lands in the lineup. Pinch hitter, pinch runner, late inning defensive help and occasional start in any outfield position. A Renaissance man of sorts.
-
I read something yesterday that most Brewer fans want them to trade for Skubal. Who are these fans? Where are these fans? Please , please , please don't give up the farm for a couple month rental.
-
Snoebird, I appreciate the reference to Thad Levine. Another person enlarging the Brewer conversation.
-
Say no to this madness. Skubal is too expensive for a two month date. Now Mason Miller is expensive but there is a long honeymoon with him. That would be incredible if Matt Arnold could pull that off.
-
Wouldn't it be fun if we actually were behind the Brewer's Curtain as they discussed all the options available. If Matt Arnold let us sit at the back of the room to just listen. I would promise not to spill the beans. That would be a rich experience. If they started to talk about giving up all these young prospects for a couple of months to rent Skubal I might scream and get kicked out of the room. :) :) :)
-
I laughed out loud reading about how many AVS challenges we could save with this trade. :) Thanks Harold!
-
I just remember a few years back when the Brewers traded Josh Hader while they were in a pennant run. The clubhouse was surprised and it had a detrimental effect on the team. This team has some players who are really strong clubhouse guys. I have a hard time believing they will be trading guys like Sal Frelick and Joey Ortiz. Maybe in the offseason but not now in the middle of chasing a deep October run. I love your articles Matt but disagree with Ortiz being spun off.

One plus one equals two. The possibility of the Brewers wanting to trade for this position seems outlandish. Not a position of need at this juncture with our pitchers hemorrhaging. Also the aspect of Matt Arnold bringing Brewer types of players into the clubhouse doesn't add up. Also his having "not so good" defense doesn't fit. One plus one isn't adding up here for me to two. It just seems outlandish, crazy and way off target for where this club sits in 2026.

Some aspects of competitive ball change as we age. The wheels aren't spinning like they used to. Our roles change and evolve in the midst of aging. Yelich has a manager who understands aging better than most since he lives it. I am certain there are quiet behind the scenes conversations to address these realities. His role on the team may be changing but not his place on the team. Milwaukee is fortunate to have someone like Yelich on the field at times and in the clubhouse always.
