In the Brewers’ core of young players, Sal Frelick has emerged as an integral part of the Brewers outfield. Frelick had been known for his strong defense in his first couple years in the majors. He then took it to the next level in 2025 as he became a threat in the batting order, increasing […]

Happy New Year’s Eve! Many players on the Brewers, like the rest of us, will go into the New Year with realistic personal and/or professional goals that they wish to accomplish in the New Year. I’ve taken the liberty to guess what some of them might be: Brandon Woodruff: Stay healthy & remain the Brewers’ […]

The Brewers had an amazing season in 2025. They put together a surprise league-leading regular season and rode that into a small playoff run. Most fans would say that everything is looking bright for the team. It’s a positive mark in the Wisconsin sports scene, which doesn’t look as good when you look outside the […]

After spending the 2024 season with the Milwaukee Brewers as a solid swing-man, the Phillies gave Joe Ross a one-year deal for what seemed like a similar role. Over the course of seven seasons with the Washington Nationals and the aforementioned Brewers, Ross has made 86 starts while coming out of the bullpen 37 times. […]

The Milwaukee Brewers have had their share of breakout players in recent seasons. In 2023, it was William Contreras and Hoby Milner. In 2024, it was Brice Turang, Jackson Chourio, Tobias Myers, and Bryan Hudson. In 2025, it was Sal Frelick, Caleb Durbin, Quinn Priester, and Chad Patrick. Those groups could obviously be expanded some […]

It’s the mysterious week between the holidays here in Wisconsin, a snowstorm is coming, and we’re still waiting to see if the Brewers are going to trade their ace, their closer, or sign a backup catcher.

The Milwaukee Brewers’ roster as it stands looks pretty balanced, with plenty of carryover from 2025 and very few clear holes. One potential hole, however, is catching depth. Behind starter William Contreras, the only other catcher currently on the 40-man roster is 23-year-old prospect Jeferson Quero, who hasn’t yet made an MLB appearance. While it’s […]

The Cubs had struggled early in 2018, but a 16-7 run from May 27 to June 20 had put them into a first-place tie with the Brewers at 42-29. Then they went on a disastrous road trip to Cincinnati and Los Angeles where they lost six of eight. The third of those games was against […]

The Brewers don’t have an infield problem in the way most teams do. There are bodies. There’s versatility. There are multiple paths to a functional 26-man roster without needing a single external move. But heading into 2026, Milwaukee’s infield feels like a classic “depth vs. clarity” situation. They’ve got eight infielders on the 40-man right […]

While we wait for substantial news about the Brewers this offseason, we’ve reached the point where I thought it would be fun to take a look back a little bit. How many of these articles get written is kind of up to Milwaukee’s front office, but we’ll get started with this one, a somewhat forgotten […]

While some teams have already made moves to upgrade their roster during this year’s free agency, many of the biggest names available remain unsigned. Earlier in the offseason, Paul wrote a series of (extremely thorough) articles on Brewers’ potential offseason targets. That was before the Brewers traded outfielder Isaac Collins (who appeared in 130 games […]

The Brewers haven’t made a ton of major moves this offseason, mostly maintaining their roster from the end of 2025 into the new year. Outside of the Ángel Zerpa-Nick Mears-Isaac Collins trade last weekend, Milwaukee’s biggest moves are the signing of Akil Baddoo and the team bringing Brandon Woodruff back on a qualifying offer. But […]

Before reading this article, you should check out Paul’s coverage of the Ángel Zerpa trade and Harrison’s article on what to expect from Zerpa. Last week, the Brewers traded Isaac Collins and Nick Mears to the Royals in exchange for lefty reliever Ángel Zerpa, who had a 4.18 ERA last season. This is a trade […]

Two seasons ago, fresh off a 92-win campaign and an NL Central division title, the Milwaukee Brewers traded their best pitcher. Former Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes, entering his final year before free agency, was dealt to the Orioles for a fairly underwhelming return. Nonetheless, the Brewers remained the class of their division, in fact […]

Harrison took an early stab at predicting the Opening Day 26-man roster yesterday, and it got me thinking about something that’s come up in conversations lately, and that’s whether the Brewers will have any left-handed pitchers in their starting rotation. That also led to the question of whether or not it actually matters whether there […]

The Milwaukee Brewers have had a fairly quiet offseason thus far. Just to quickly recap the few major transactions they have made, here’s the list: From the 40-man roster to close out the season, that means only five losses (Jansen, Hoskins, Quintana, Mears, and Collins) and three additions (Crow, Baddoo, and Zerpa). Woodruff is a […]

On Saturday, the Brewers traded outfielder Isaac Collins and reliever Nick Mears to the Kansas City Royals for pitcher Ángel Zerpa. That has a lot of implications for the bullpen, obviously (check out Harrison’s look at Zerpa), but Collins also started almost four times as many games in left field than any other Brewer outfielder […]
