Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (72-44) vs. Minnesota Twins (58-59)
The Twins beat the Brewers in the first game of this weekend’s series in a wild game, one in which Milwaukee took an early four-run lead but couldn’t hold on to it. Tonight, they’ll look to even the series, though the on-paper pitching matchup favors the Twins: Robert Gasser will take the mound for the […]
Breaking T releases new version of “William Contreras: Call the ’Pen” shirt
We’re back with a new version of one of our favorite Breaking T shirts, featuring Milwaukee’s backstop. As you may remember, William Contreras had one of the more iconic moments last season when he made the signal to “call the ‘pen” after crushing a go-ahead homer against the Cubs in the NLDS. Despite a bit […]
Brewers blow early lead, lose wild one to Twins 8-6
Box Score Through five-and-a-half innings, the Brewers and Twins played a wild, back-and-forth game, a game marred by bad defense and the toughest outing of the season for Brewers rookie starter Shane Drohan. But when the Twins’ beleaguered but retooled bullpen took over, the Brewers’ bats couldn’t come up with a needed clutch hit, and […]

Best Brewers trade deadlines in history
This past trade deadline as not only Brewers fans, but baseball fans alike, felt… frustrating, and perhaps even controversial. But at the same time, thinking about how the Brewers got to the point they are today with the product they have on the field, they certainly wouldn’t be there if they traded away their farm […]
Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 8/7-8/13
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The trade deadline is officially in the rearview, and we’re now less than two months from the end of the regular season.

Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Minnesota Twins
The Milwaukee Brewers, winners of three straight, are set to host the Minnesota Twins for a three-game set this weekend.

Chourio, Sánchez crush, while May spins it in his Brewers debut
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers have found their fourth starter. Dustin May, who was recently acquired in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals, made his Brewers debut this afternoon and delivered a gritty six-inning performance, allowing just two runs on three hits while striking out five. While riding high on the May train, the […]
Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (71-43) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (57-59)

Kyle Harrison outduels Skenes, but exits early in Brewers’ 4-2 win
Box Score The highly-anticipated return of Kyle Harrison to the Milwaukee Brewers rotation went as well as anyone could have imagined. Through five innings, Harrison blew the doors off the Pirates hitters, allowing just one hit (a single) and striking out 10, including each of the last eight batters he faced. And then, as Harrison […]
Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (70-43) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (57-58)
The Milwaukee Brewers and Pittsburgh Pirates are back at it for the third game in a four-game series and this game has the most highly-anticipated pitching matchup of the group. The Pirates will have their ace Paul Skenes on the mound tonight. Skenes hasn’t been as dominant as his first two seasons in the big […]
Trade deadline part six: A review
We’ve finally reached the end of trade deadline season, and after five weekly articles previewing what might happen, we now know: the Brewers tried but failed to acquire Tarik Skubal, and instead settled for two trades that netted Dustin May, JoJo Romero, and Antonio Senzatela. (A smaller trade earlier in the week shored up catching […]
Chourio, Henderson lead Brewers to 4-2 victory
Box Score Logan Henderson and Jared Jones are two of the brighter young pitching stars in the league. Both 24 years old, each has had a lot of early success while working around injuries, and both have a bright future. Tonight, though, a struggling Brewers offense figured Jones out, and while Henderson wasn’t perfect, he […]
Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (69-43) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (57-57)
After a bit of a dud on Monday night, the Brewers will, for the third day in a row, go for their 70th win tonight as they attempt to even this four-game series against Pittsburgh at one game apiece. With a 6-1 record, the Pirates have had Milwaukee’s number this season, a stark change over […]
Breaking T releases “Abner Uribe El Pistolero” shirt
We’re back with a new Breaking T shirt, featuring Milwaukee’s young set-up man. After Abner Uribe (and closer Trevor Megill) got off to a bit of a cold start to the season, both players have been elite over the last couple of months. Uribe, 26, hasn’t allowed a run since June 19 against Atlanta, and […]

Welcome back to the Minor League Roundup, and happy trade deadline! By the time you’re reading this, Major League Baseball’s annual trade deadline will have passed.

Brandon Sproat struggles once again as Brewers fall to Pirates 4-3
Box Score On a night where your job appears to be on the line, that was not the performance Brewers right-hander Brandon Sproat was needing to have. Sproat struggled to finish innings once again, getting the first two outs in the first, before allowing a single and a walk. Then he put together his first […]

MLB Trade Grades: Brewers add pitching depth at deadline, but is it enough?
The Milwaukee Brewers, who acquired catcher Bo Naylor and right-handed reliever Codi Heuer in a trade with the Guardians on Saturday morning, had a very quiet lead up to Monday’s trade deadline.
