Double your pleasure, double your fun! More taste! Less filling! And other appropriate advertising jingles of the seventies. For Arizona plays two games this afternoon. Attention will probably be focused on the White Sox game, because you can at least listen to that, through a dbacks.com livestream, hosted by Chris Garagiola alongside Jake Lamb. The […]
The Brewers return to Cactus League action Friday after an exciting 10–8 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Today’s game pits Milwaukee against the local Arizona Diamondbacks for the first time this spring. Chad Patrick is on the mound for the Brewers on the heels of Pat Murphy’s declaration that Patrick “will be in the rotation” […]
Morning everyone and happy Friday! This year’s Spring Breakout Game for the Athletics is quickly approaching. In just over two weeks we’ll see some of the Athletics’ top prospects take on the Milwaukee Brewers’ top prospects in some head-to-head action of what could be and ultimately is a peak into the future of both organizations. […]
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. Welcome to March, as Opening Day is now just three weeks away! Feel free to use this thread to chat about (almost) anything you want: video games, food, movies, non-baseball sports, the Brewers, you name it. As long as it’s appropriate and is allowed by our moderators, it’s fair game […]
The Colorado Rockies lost to the Milwaukee Brewers today, 10-8. For more details, click here. And now to the postgame comments. First, here’s manager Warren Schaeffer: Starting pitcher Michael Lorenzen weighed in before heading out to play for Team Italy in the WBC: And, finally, Tyler Freeman discussed his return to action: Please keep in […]
Box Score Garrett Mitchell has all the talent in the world to be a star in this league. Injuries have plagued him to this point, but he’s healthy and showing what he’s capable of. Mitchell got this game started with a bang, a 462-foot home run off Michael Lorenzen that came off the bat at […]
After being treated to yesterday’s Rockies vs Team USA exhibition match to kick off the World Baseball Classic, the Colorado Rockies will be hosting the Milwaukee Brewers at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick in a return to regular spring training match-ups. Many of the Rockies’ players participating in the World Baseball Classic have departed […]
MLB’s best team from a year ago gets set to take on MLB’s worst team from a year ago as the Brewers and Colorado Rockies square off in today’s Cactus League action. Lefty Robert Gasser gets the start today for the Brewers. This will be his second Cactus League outing this year. In his first, […]
The Milwaukee Brewers have an obvious choice at the top of their second-base depth chart, one that should be a big part of, at least, the next few years. After that, it’s a little less clear, but there are a bunch of potential options, and as long as Brice Turang’s health holds out, we shouldn’t […]
Let’s be frank: The Brewers telecast on Marquee was disconcerting, to say the least, just like the Reds broadcast the other day. Sharing that content is another way to enhance the bottom line, I guess, but it sure sucks from this fan’s point of view. The ESPN/MLB.TV crap is off-putting to start with. So many […]
Box Score Despite a vintage performance from Christian Yelich, who reached base three times in his spring debut, Milwaukee fell to the Chicago Cubs 4-1. Chicago jumped out to an early 2-0 lead and never looked back. In the top of the first, Brandon Sproat made short work of the Cubs, retiring the top of […]
The Cubs got some good pitching performances Wednesday afternoon against the Brewers, but a potentially even bigger story was four ABS challenges made by Moisés Ballesteros, all of which he got right! That’s a skill that can definitely translate to MLB regular season games. Perhaps there’s hope for Ballesteros to do some MLB catching after […]

Go get ‘em, Edward.
The NL Central’s fiercest rivalry returns today as the Brewers take on the Chicago Cubs for the first time this spring. Offseason acquisition Brandon Sproat is scheduled to take the mound for Milwaukee. Sproat’s made one appearance so far this spring, surrendering three hits (one earned run) while striking out three in 1 1/3 innings […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. We’re back with another Brewers Reacts Survey as we’re now nearly two weeks into spring training! […]
Last week, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s JR Radcliffe caught up with Baseball Prospectus’ Jonathan Judge to discuss the recent PECOTA projections. Those rankings, which I covered here, somewhat notoriously projected the Brewers for just 80.5 wins (it has since been inched up to 81.1), and Radcliffe wanted to give Judge a chance to explain in […]
This morning, MLB Pipeline released its list of the top 30 Brewers prospects in anticipation of the upcoming season. The full list can be found here. I’m not going to overview each player on the list because BCB’s Dave Gasper just released his list of the top 50 Brewers prospects, complete with bios on each […]
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers took on Team Great Britain on Tuesday afternoon in Phoenix, and a rough fifth inning from Jared Koenig buried Milwaukee in a 7-3 loss. With Jacob Misiorowski making his spring debut, he started the game with a pair of strikeouts wrapped around a walk to Jazz Chisholm Jr. He then […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are set to take on Team Great Britain at American Family Fields of Phoenix on Tuesday afternoon, in what will be a tune-up for Team GBR as the World Baseball Classic is set to officially begin on Wednesday (Team GBR’s first pool game is on Friday). The game is one of 15 […]
Today we look at the Cubs’ new left-handed reliever. Hoby Milner came to the Cubs as a free agent after spending a year as a Texas Ranger, where he had a little success, as he has had during a long career, previously with the Phillies, Rays, and Brewers. His ERA and peripherals weren’t so great, […]
Jaylon Thompson wrote about Kris Bubic’s Spring Training debut. On Sunday, Bubic stepped onto the pitcher’s mound again. Bubic pitched two innings against the Milwaukee Brewers at Surprise Stadium. He allowed four hits and one run but registered three strikeouts. Bubic threw 31 pitches in the start. He averaged 91.9 mph with his fastball and […]
On Tuesday, Jacob Misiorowski is set to make his spring debut. With the departure of Freddy Peralta, he is arguably the highlight of the Brewers’ rotation now. Brandon Woodruff is still the longest-tenured Brewer, but Misiorowski is being pushed as one of the new faces of the franchise. As he enters his second season, here […]
