Latest news and updates about the Brewers
The Cactus League Brewers are back in action and looking to get off the schneid this afternoon after losing both games in split-squad action yesterday. They’ll travel to Peoria to take on the San Diego Padres. Today’s lineup features a balance of regulars and minor leaguers, as Jackson Chourio, Joey Ortiz, Andrew Vaughn, and Gary […]
I’ve chosen a few different formats for this series now that the Cubs play all 29 other teams every year. Sorry, I’m not writing 29 of these. This year, I’ll focus an article on each of the Cubs’ NL Central rivals, since the Cubs play them more than any other teams. That’ll make four articles. […]
The Milwaukee Brewers continue to have one of the best farm systems in Major League Baseball. In fact, they are ranked the best farm system by ESPN and The Athletic heading into 2026. The Brewers’ collection of talent is ever-growing, with some late offseason additions from the Freddy Peralta and Caleb Durbin trades. It makes […]
It’s not often you get saved by the Bell twice with a few minutes, but it happened to Mike Vasil and White Sox this afternoon and made it possible for a come-from-slightly-behind victory. The third win of the spring wasn’t as definitive as the first two, and it was as much the result of Milwaukee […]
The Milwaukee Brewers had their first split-squad day of the spring on Sunday, as part of the team visited the Chicago White Sox in Glendale, and the others stayed in Phoenix to battle the Kansas City Royals. With a pair of losses, the Brewers fell to 0-3 in the Cactus League as their hopes for […]
Having crunched their first two opponents by a combined score of 19-3, the White Sox will try to extend the streak of slaughters against a Brewers split squad today. Mike Vasil, who did an excellent job in relief last year and is under consideration for a rotation slot for 2026, will start the parade of […]
The Kansas City Royals are back in action after getting crushed yesterday by the Padres 10-3. The Royals won their first Spring Training game against the Rangers 7-3 and will look to get back in the groove of things today taking on the Brewers. Bailey Falter takes the ball to start today. Falter, a trade […]
After a losing effort against the Guardians on Saturday afternoon, the Brewers are back at it with their first split-squad day of the spring. The road Brewer squad is in Glendale, where they’ll take on the Chicago White Sox, while the home team welcomes the Royals to American Family Fields of Phoenix. In the road […]
Box Score After a long, eventful winter, the Milwaukee Brewers were back in action on Saturday afternoon in Phoenix, as they hosted the Cleveland Guardians. While the results don’t matter much (besides for the coveted Cactus League Cup), the Brewers did go down 9-6 in this one. Garrett Stallings worked around a pair of singles […]
Texas Rangers infielder Cody Freeman has been diagnosed with a stress fracture in his back, the team announced today. He is expected to miss four to six weeks. Freeman, who the beats say gave the team an injection of energy when he came up last August, was in the mix for a bench spot to […]
Back in January, arbitration-eligible players and teams who did not come to an agreement on a salary for the 2026 season at the deadline had to file for the salary they thought the player deserved. This year, 18 players exchanged figures with their clubs to head to arbitration. The Brewers had just one player among […]
We’re back with another daily question, and today’s question is: If you could change one moment in franchise history, what would it be? The Brewers have had their share of heartbreak over the years, losing the 1982 World Series, the 2018 NLCS, the 2019 Wild Card Game, and the 2024 Wild Card Series in heartbreaking […]
The Milwaukee Brewers have reworked manager Pat Murphy’s contract, locking up the reigning two-time NL Manager of the Year through 2028 with a club option for 2029, multiple sources have confirmed. Murphy, who was entering his final season of a three-year deal signed after the departure of Craig Counsell in the 2023-24 offseason, will stick […]
There was a time, not so long ago, when bullpen roles felt rigid. The setup man handled the eighth. The closer handled the ninth. Everyone else filled in the gaps and tried not to make a mess of things. But if there’s one quiet constant of Brewers baseball over the last several years, it’s this: […]
We’re back with another daily question, and today’s question is: Who is your least favorite Brewer? Props to user keephopealive for suggesting the question earlier this week. There are tons of good options, as you’ll see in the comments section from Tuesday. Jesse Winker is probably the most recent “Brewer villain,” but we’ve also had […]
We’re less than a week from baseball games! The Brewers get their Cactus League slate underway on Saturday afternoon against the Guardians. It won’t be a typical spring training, necessarily — the World Baseball Classic adds a (fun) twist to the proceedings, and several prominent Brewers will be absent from camp for a week or […]
We’re back with another daily question, and today’s question is: Which opposing team do you hate the most? Given that this is a community of Brewer fans, I’d guess roughly 95% of the fans in here will say either the Cubs or the Cardinals, with the other 5% dispersed to teams all over the league […]
After an offseason full of turmoil with the Brewers’ broadcast plan, the team has a new home on Brewers.TV, an offshoot of MLB.TV, which is now owned by ESPN as part of the league’s new media agreement. While the team has not yet announced local carrier information — you can keep track of that here […]
As spring training gets underway, one main factor for many players competing for major league jobs is their option status. Having a roster of players with options gives the Brewers’ flexibility on how to build their roster. They can move players between the majors and minors throughout the season, giving them depth for injury replacements […]
We’re back with another daily question, and today’s question is: Which Brewer do you defend no matter what the numbers say? For me, it’s Rickie Weeks. The No. 2 overall pick in 2003, Weeks never quite lived up to the hype, at least from a numbers perspective. Across 11 seasons in Milwaukee, he accumulated just […]
After they traded away their third base depth chart last week, it was widely expected that the Brewers would add someone to the mix in their infield. Without doing so, Milwaukee would enter the season relying on a whole bunch of promising prospects who have never played a meaningful number of games above Double-A. Remember, […]
While Brandon Sproat is my pick to be the next Brewers “pitching lab” success story, I started writing that article before the Brewers traded for left-hander Kyle Harrison (4.09 ERA in 2025). Harrison — the main piece acquired in the trade that sent Caleb Durbin to Boston— might have an even more intriguing profile. He’s […]
We’re back with another daily question on this unseasonably warm Sunday! We asked a few weeks ago which prospect you’re most looking forward to seeing this spring, and on Friday, Dave covered a few dark horse roster candidates, which got me thinking: Which non-roster invite has the best chance of making the Brewers? There are […]
Dylan Ross had such a good year in the minors in 2025 that he put himself on the prospect map here at Amazin’ Avenue, ranking 18th on our list of the team’s top 25 prospects. And that was before the Mets’ trade that sent Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat to the Brewers, which effectively bumped […]
The Cubs have reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with veteran right-handed reliever Shelby Miller. Fansided’s Robert Murray was reportedly first with the news. Miller, 35, pitched quite effectively last year with the Diamondbacks, posting a 1.98 ERA and ten saves in 37 games before he was traded to the Brewers at the trade deadline, […]
