Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 7/10-7/16

Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers have powered their way through the longest stretch of the season, as they’re just three games away from completing 18 games in 17 days. Not only that, but they’ve also played great baseball during the stretch, building their NL Central lead as we near the All-Star break. Speaking […]

Bauers powers Brewers to 8-4 series finale win over Cardinals

Box Score For the first time since the first half of Tuesday’s doubleheader, the Brewers took the first lead of the game early on and never looked back.

Brewers 2026 MLB Draft: Pre-Draft Roundup

It’s hard to argue with the Brewers’ recent draft results. Jacob Misiorowski is already a two-time All-Star, while Cooper Pratt, Braylon Payne, Blake Burke, and Andrew Fischer have emerged as some of the organization’s brightest young stars. Milwaukee will look to add another name or two to that list this weekend as the 2026 MLB […]

Brewers trade deadline primer, part two: Relief pitcher targets

In part one of this five-part trade deadline primer, I looked at the Brewers’ roster and determined what their primary needs are. While things could certainly shift over the next 25 days (look no further than yesterday’s Brandon Woodruff news, or the injury to David Hamilton, which put the Brewers’ infield in a bit of […]

Brewers drop Wednesday night showdown in St. Louis, 5-1

Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers dropped their first game since Saturday tonight, as the Cardinals put together a string of extra-base hits and the Brewers had no response in a 5-1 loss.

Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (58-33) @ St. Louis Cardinals (47-43)

The Milwaukee Brewers, winners of seven straight against the Cardinals and four straight overall, are looking to extend both those streaks on Wednesday night as they’ll take on St. Louis for the fourth game of their five-game set. Left-hander Kyle Harrison is set to start for the Brewers, with righty Michael McGreevy starting for the […]

Gasser shines, Lara gets big hit as Brewers rout Cardinals 10-2

Box Score For six innings, the Brewers and Cardinals were involved in another close, low-scoring baseball game. Starters Robert Gasser and Hunter Dobbins were both pitching well, and while Milwaukee got out to an early lead, the Cardinals punched back in the sixth. Then the seventh inning happened. Milwaukee put up seven runs in their […]

Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (56-33) @ St. Louis Cardinals (47-41)

The Milwaukee Brewers have a doubleheader on deck Tuesday, as they’ll begin with game one with Jacob Misiorowski starting opposite the Cardinals’ Matt Svanson. The big news out of Milwaukee today is the call-up of top outfield prospect Luis Lara. Lara, 21, signed a seven-year, $31 million contract in early June and now gets his […]

UPDATE: The Brewers made the move official late Tuesday morning, optioning outfielder Blake Perkins to Triple-A Nashville.

Lara will join an outfield rotation that also includes Jackson Chourio, Garrett Mitchell, Sal Frelick, and […]

2026 Brewers Week in Review: Week 15

Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week There are several candidates for this distinction, but in a week when starting pitchers struggled to give the team length, I’m going to go with Chad Patrick. After struggling for much of June, Patrick turned things around this week by chalking up […]

Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers @ St. Louis Cardinals

The Milwaukee Brewers are set for a big five-game, four-day series in St. Louis this week, as they’ll take on the Cardinals in an NL Central battle. After a rainout in early May, the two teams will have a makeup doubleheader on Tuesday, meaning we’ll get to see a rare five-game series. Milwaukee currently sits […]

Bauers’ homer powers Brewers to 3-2 victory over Diamondbacks

Box Score This three-game series between the Brewers and Diamondbacks was… something. The first two games featured some sloppiness, some bad luck, and some late (Midwestern) nights. After the teams split the first two games, Brandon Sproat and newly minted All-Star Eduardo Rodríguez took to the mound today to determine the series. The All-Star looked […]

Injuries, stranded runners haunt the Brewers in a 4-3 loss

Box Score Struggles with clutch hitting haunted the Milwaukee Brewers yet again, as they stranded nine runners on base on their way to a 4-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Entering tonight’s game, the Brewers’ main focus was to get a deep outing from their starting pitcher and clean up the runners in scoring position. […]

Brewers’ Misiorowski, Contreras named to NL All-Star Team

The Milwaukee Brewers’ prominent battery, Jacob Misiorowski and William Contreras, has been named to the National League All-Star Team. Misiorowski famously made last year’s All-Star Game (as a way-down-the-line injury replacement, it should be said) having made just five major league appearances. If there were questions over whether he’d earned that last year, there obviously […]
