Latest news and updates about the Brewers
Shōta Imanaga has been so good this year that I think all of us hoped he had turned the page on 2025 and would have a 2024-type season all year. Until Monday, that was the case. Unfortunately, Imanaga got hit hard and had his worst start of the year (and to be honest, he had […]
Welcome back to the Minor League Roundup! As a reminder, you can find this roundup — covering everything you need to know about each of the Brewers’ minor league affiliates — every Tuesday morning right here on Brew Crew Ball. For consistency, all organizational prospect rankings will reference MLB Pipeline unless otherwise noted. Triple-A Nashville […]
Over the last nine years, Milwaukee Brewers fans have witnessed more success in this span of history than ever before. Two trips to the National League Championship Series and seven playoff appearances, which is nearly double the number of appearances in the previous 48 years (1981, 1982, 2008, 2011). Throughout the success, you can point […]
Box Score In the first of 13 meetings between the Brewers and Cubs this season, the Brewers set the tone for these matchups. Though the Cubs were riding a 15-game home winning streak and had their ace on the mound, it didn’t faze the Brewers at all. They scored eight runs off of Shota Imanaga […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
The regular season is nearing the two-month mark, but the Brewers and Cubs have not played yet this season. That changes tonight as the two teams open the first of four series, which could end up deciding the NL Central. The season is just over a quarter of the way done, and the National League […]
Monday notes… Cubs lineup: Brewers lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. Brandon Sproat, RHP As you’ll recall, Shōta Imanaga’s second half was so bad that the Cubs didn’t use him in the deciding game of the division series in 2025. Things have changed. Imanaga is 100 percent healthy again and in three starts this month he […]
Brewers 9, Cubs 3: Shōta Imanaga implodes and the long home winning streak ends Cubs vs. Brewers, Monday 5/18, 6:40 CT live! Chicago Cubs vs. Milwaukee Brewers preview, Monday 5/18, 6:40 CT
The upswing of the past few weeks has turned to a harsh downswing. The Yankees went on a terrible road trip last week, getting swept by the Brewers before losing two of three to both the Orioles and Mets — the first was an understandable blip on the radar, but the latter two are teams […]
This is the first meeting between these division rivals since last October’s Division Series, which, as you know, the Brewers won three games to two. Both teams have made significant changes since that time. For more on the Brewers, here’s Harrison Freuck, manager of our SB Nation Brewers site Brew Crew Ball. The Milwaukee Brewers […]
The Twins had a 3-3 week (stop me if you’ve heard this before), taking a 2-1 series against the Marlins, which included an incredible Bailey Ober “Maddux”, and then dropping two games to the Brewers during “Rivalry Weekend” in the MLB. We might have seen the last of Matt Wallner in a Twins uniform after […]
Last week saw to divisional matchups in the National League West, and NL West teams lost the two series against other NL teams outside the division. The San Diego Padres dropped two of three against the Milwaukee Brewers, and the Colorado Rockies lost two out of three against the Pittsburgh Pirates. But the division mostly […]
Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week Is it time to rename this section to “What impressive performance did Jacob Misiorowski pull off last week?” It’s starting to feel that way with how well he’s been pitching. He followed up his performance against the Yankees last week with a […]
Here we go — the first Brewers-Cubs series of the 2026 season, and their first meeting since the Brewers beat the Cubs 3-2 in last season’s NLDS. The Crew is headed to Wrigley Field, as they’ll take on the Cubs for three games beginning Monday night. The Brewers are coming off a series win over […]
Box Score The Brewers came back to tie today’s game twice, but couldn’t do it a third time as they dropped the series finale against the Twins. Brewers starting pitcher Robert Gasser.started the bottom of the first inning with a four-pitch walk before quickly inducing two pop-ups, but Kody Clemens hit an RBI double to […]
Two weeks ago, Minnesota Twins RP Andrew Morris gave an inspired performance out of the bullpen in relief of an injured Joe Ryan. One week ago, a bullpen game brought home a victory. For a third consecutive Sunday, the Twins ‘pen turned in an inspired performance to salvage the final game with the Milwaukee Brewers. […]

After taking the first two games of a three-game set against the Minnesota Twins, the Brewers have now won three straight games and eight of their last nine. Looking to make it four straight is left-hander Robert Gasser, who will make his season debut as today’s starting pitcher after he was recalled from Triple-A Nashville […]
Box Score For the second straight night, the Brewers used the help of a mistake made by third baseman Royce Lewis to tie the game, making way for the offense to take care of business later on. Tonight’s win secures their seventh series win over their last nine. Despite a lack of offense from both […]
The Twins got a career-best start from Connor Prielipp, who struck out eight Brewers and held them to three hits in a six-inning start, but could only prop up a single run despite outhitting the visiting Milwaukee victors. After squandering a second-inning opportunity with two men in scoring position and nobody out — then a […]
First Pitch: 6:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy The Twins aren’t actually THAT far below .500, but when a Friday night home game feels like a road trip, “core” players are being optioned to Triple-A, and the Chicago White Sox are above you in the standings, it’s hard not […]
When the Milwaukee Brewers sent Caleb Durbin and Andruw Monasterio to Boston before the season, the focus was, understandably, on the former top 100 prospect Kyle Harrison. (That has worked out quite well so far!) After that, people’s eyes likely wandered to David Hamilton, who was expected to get a pretty decent amount of work […]
Box Score The Brewers got some help tonight, as a mistake by Royce Lewis and a key (see: correct) call by the umpires allowed them to tie and later take the lead in the eighth inning in Minnesota, giving the Brewers their 25th win of the season against the Twins. Milwaukee got things started with […]
A rookie pitcher making his second MLB start mostly stymied the Twins’ offense, and when this team gets into a bullpen battle, they’d lose to the Bad News Bears. Inning-by-inning notes: 1: We begin a sparsely-attended game with a Jackson Chourio double; he scores on a William Contreras single. Three hits for Milwaukee in the […]
